Autodesk Maya 3D animation software delivers a comprehensive creative feature set with tools for animation, modeling, simulation, rendering, matchmoving, and compositing on a highly extensible production platform. For visual effects, game development, post production, or other 3D animation projects, Maya offers toolsets to help meet demanding production requirements. Maya 2013 adds tools that help facilitate parallel workflows and complexity handling; powerful new creative toolsets; and productivity enhancements to help you create higher quality content quickly. Free Trial Autodesk Maya software provides powerful, integrated 3D modeling, animation, simulation, matchmoving and rendering tools.

Features Autodesk Maya 2013 software delivers practical toolsets to help create and maintain the modern, open pipelines you need to address today’s challenging 3D animation, visual effects, game development, and post production projects. Powerful new toolsets for dynamic simulation, animation, and rendering offer new levels of creativity, while everyday productivity enhancements help you finish faster. In addition, the Open Data initiative introduced in Maya 2013 offers tools to help facilitate parallel workflows and better complexity handling. Surface Modeling Maya offers two methods for creating mathematically smooth surfaces that can be shaped using relatively few control vertices: NURBS and hierarchical Subdivision Surfaces. Subdivision Surfaces can have different levels of detail in different regions, enabling you to add complexity only where needed. NURBS Surfaces can be attached, detached, aligned, stitched together, extended, filleted, or rebuilt with a high degree of control over parameterization and continuity. NURBS and Subdivision Surfaces can be converted to polygon meshes, and vice versa.

Precise spline-based curve and surface construction tools include lofting, birail, beveling, extrusion, trim, boundary, offset, Booleans, rounding, and square. UVs, Normals, and Color-Per-Vertex Beyond the position of vertices that define their shape, meshes can carry essential data for software, interactive, or in-game 3D rendering. To manage this, Maya offers:. A streamlined workflow for creative texturing—including UV creation and editing, auto-projection, interactive relaxation, layout, lattice, and smudge tools. Multiple UV sets that support separate texture coordinates for separate texture channels. Per-instance UV sets that enable a single mesh to be used to represent multiple objects, reducing scene overhead. Multiple sets of animatable color-per-vertex (CPV), prelighting, user-defined normals, and normal map generation suitable for game design.

Character Creation Create, skin, rig, and pose believable characters with realistic deformations in less time. Maya 3D animation software includes:. Built-in Spline IK, Spring IK, and single chain and lightweight 2-bone solvers. An IK system for natural articulation of biped and quadruped models.

Nondestructive live retargeting workflow to reuse, correct, and enhance motion capture and other animation data. Maya Muscle advanced deformation tools for realistic or highly stylized muscle and skin motion. Substitute Geometry tool to transfer skinning information between models. Nondestructive workflow that enables you to insert, move, delete, connect, and disconnect joints on a bound skeleton. Camera Sequencer Accelerate previsualization and virtual moviemaking production with the Camera Sequencer. Lay out and manage multiple camera shots in a single animation sequence. Start laying out shots in Maya, or import an EDL in FCP or AAF formats from editorial with associated movie, audio, and time code information.

Use the Sequencer Playlist to reorder clips, edit In and Out points, and change camera assignments. Use Playblast to playback and review the sequence before optionally re-exporting an EDL to editorial for further refinement. Maya nParticles Enjoy an intuitive, efficient workflow for simulating a wide range of complex 3D visual effects with Maya nParticles, including liquids, clouds, smoke, spray, and dust. Create pouring liquids and sloshing liquids in containers. Self-collision enables nParticles to accumulate within volumes.

Map shading attributes, such as radius, color, opacity, and incandescence over time (or over age, radius, speed). Flexible nConstraints provide an extra degree of control without the need to write complex expressions. Use geometry instancing to replace particles with objects. Bidirectional interaction with Maya nCloth and Maya nHair enables particles to affect cloth and/or hair, and hair and/or cloth to affect particles simultaneously. Maya Fluid Effects Simulate and render highly realistic atmospheric, explosive, viscous liquid, and open water effects using Maya Fluid Effects. Select from presets for clouds, smoke, snow, steam, fog, nuclear explosions, flames, lava, mercury, mud, ocean swells, calm oceans, rough seas, rippling ponds, white caps, and foam. Use 2D fluids to create distinctive animated textures.

Integrated with other parts of Maya: for example, a simulating fluid can act as a force on particles; objects can affect a fluid as they move through it, such as a character walking through thick smoke; and boats can create wakes on oceans. Maya nCloth Create realistic clothing and other deformable materials using the integrated Maya nCloth toolset. Convert any polygon mesh model into an nCloth object. Paint cloth attributes like bend, stretch, shear, and dent. Make 3D objects stiff, viscous, or flowing.

Use topology-independent constraints to attach buttons, tear cloth, and control movement. Simulate cloth-on-cloth, such as a shirt over pants. Use self-collisions to achieve highly realistic results without self-interpenetration errors. Blend multiple cached simulations together to achieve complex effects. Bidirectional interaction with Maya nParticles and Maya nHair enables cloth to affect particles and/or hair, and hair and/or particles to affect cloth simultaneously.

Rigid and Soft-Body Dynamics Create convincing simulations of multiple rigid and flexible objects. Connect rigid-body objects with constraints: Nail, Hinge, Barrier, Pin, and Spring. Use soft-body objects to create secondary motion effects, such as muscle jiggle and floppy hats, with paintable goal-weights. Simulate the motion of natural forces with dynamic fields: Air, Drag, Gravity, Newton, Radial, Turbulence, Uniform, Vortex, Volume Axis, and Volume Curve. Control attributes such as Friction, Bounciness, Damping, Mass, Velocity, Spin, and Torque.

Use the multi-threaded NVIDIA® PhysX® engine. to create static, dynamic, and kinematic rigid-body simulations directly in the Maya viewport, and gain the ability to match a runtime solution. Create highly realistic shattering simulations with multiple interacting materials using the Digital Molecular Matter plug-in from Pixelux Entertainment™. Maya Composite Maya® Composite is a fully featured, high-performance, high dynamic range (HDR)-capable compositor that provides Maya users with a highly efficient, collaborative compositing environment.

Enhance rendered passes from Maya and incorporate them into live-action footage. Work interactively with visual media regardless of bit-depth or image size. Take advantage of advanced tools for keying, color correction, camera mapping, spline-based warping, motion blur, and depth of field. Perform complex rotoscoping workflows with both raster and vector paint and integrated tracking. Work in a full 3D compositing environment that incorporates tools to support stereoscopic productions.

Painting in Maya With Maya Paint Effects and 3D Paint tools, you can create realistic natural detail and painterly effects as 3D scene geometry or as 2D textures with the stroke of a brush. Select, edit, and blend between 500 editable, pressure-sensitive, preset brushes, including trees, grass, flowers, crystals, feathers, barbed wire, lightning, rain, star fields, fireworks, fire, sparks, airbrushes, oil paint, chalk, pastels, pencils, watercolors, wet brushes, and markers. Use built-in animation to simulate effects like plants growing, unfurling, or swaying in the wind. Draw fully rendered strokes during interactive painting and get immediate feedback. Paint color, bump, displacement, transparency, and other textures directly on surfaces. Toon Shader Transform 3D scenes into compelling cartoon animations rendered with non-photorealistic styles, such as hand-drawn, traditional cartoon, comic book, and Japanese manga/anime.

Work in 3D to create complex transitions and camera moves, or incorporate simulated effects that would be extremely difficult in 2D. Use Maya Paint Effects brushes to create outlines with an extensive range of painterly effects and precise control over line style, placement, and width. View interactive previews in near real time. Render the results in mental ray® for Maya or the Maya software or hardware renderers. Professional Camera Tracking Extract accurate 3D camera and motion data from live action video and film sequences and insert CG elements seamlessly into a scene using Autodesk® MatchMover™ software. Push-Button Matchmoving provides advanced automatic 3D tracking; this easy-to-use feature can be used with supervised tracking to handle complex shots.

Precision manual controls enable you to create a unique 3D reference system for your camera and 3D content. Advanced workflows can be based on filtering and fine tuning of tracking parameters, tracking from multiple footage and stills, tracking of moving objects, and 3D tracking constrained by motion-control data. Scripting and API Autodesk Maya 3D animation software is a highly extensible application. You can create scripts and write plug-ins to increase efficiency, customize features, and create competitive differentiation.
