Introduction to Maya - Modeling Fundamentals Vol 1
This course will look at the fundamentals of modeling in Maya with an emphasis on creating good topology. We'll look at what makes a good model in Maya and why objects are modeled in the way they are.

animation demo reel

Well, it's that time again. I'm throwing myself out onto the job market and sending out demo reels. I figured that I'd share it here (mostly to prove I actually do more than hang out on IRC :p ). You can see a low-res version on my website:

Nothing fancy. Just a quick presentation of some work I've done in the last few years. Hopefully, I'll get hired somewhere. user added image

Thanks to everyone for the kind words. The online version of my reel already got me one interview this week (not counting the one I had earlier today). So far, it seems to be working.

@Kurt: You'll need Quicktime to view my reel. Beyond that, not sure what else could be wrong. It works fine on both my Mac and my PC.

Really nice work Danny …….. gee, you guys make me so jealous, I wish I could do stuff like this ……


I'd like to share a revelation that I've had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species. I realized that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment, but you humans do not. You move to an area, and you multiply, and multiply, until every natural resource is consumed. The only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet, you are a plague, and we are the cure.
