why do you have it all planned out so much? there's more to maya than modelling. with 3 years experience you will be more than competent in maya, possibly modelling too. dont pressure yourself too much just enjoy learning the program!!

Ps. Dont be shy to show your stuff. unbiased Crits are the only way to get better and improve.

I'll post some stuff soon but I dont even know all the basics yet. I'm in serious need of Character making/modeling tutorials and other tutorials for Dynamics, Rendering and stuff.
This tutorial works like a gem for most beginners: Hobbit Guy

I'm a newbie too, I've been around Maya for 3 months (discluding the summer vacation where the only computer I touched had 16 mb ram pentium 1) now, but I'm one of the crappier newbies too. I learn at half the speed of smell. And for your information, I'm 13.
Anyways, ShaoJin, welcome to the site, and enjoy your stay, and learn bunches to become the modeler... guy... person... thing... dude...
I don't like making characters, espacially for games so PLEEEEASE don't ask me for advice
Cheers,
,Matt

I´m 23, started with Maya about a year ago, and I´m definetely still a noob, but then I have been pretty busy with other stuff, so it´s far from every day that I get to use Maya.
Buying some of the tutorials off this site is one of the best things you can do, that and just playing around (well it works for me anyway) to get a feel of the program.
Lead Modeller in 3 years eh? Good luck, and I really mean that. You are ambitious, I´ll give you that. Which is not a bad thing.

To think even when you get good enough to get a job in the industery (and the standard is quite high, i mean, why should they hire you over the 100+ other people?) your not gonna jump into a lead anything job straight away. No matter how good your work is, to be a leader you need experiance.
Also, as many people here will tell you, you might not get the job straight away. Sometimes the job hunt itself takes years.
Yeah, but no but yeah but no....

Cool. I hope it works out for ya.Originally posted by ShaoJin
The thing is... me and 7 other of my friends.. some are already in College are already starting to invest to make our own dev team!... I've got Sec 4, Sec 5, 1 year of working, 1 year in College and the last stop is Campus Ubisoft. This is approx. 5 years of investing and learning 3D/Programming for me and my friends/partners. This isn't just some stupid thing that I just felt like doing.. I even took a test from the "Conseillere en Orientation" at my school I already have most of the requirements to go to Campus Ubisoft...
PS: I feel like the price for Maya is pressuring me a little.. I dont know if some of you understand.
Remember though; when you rush things the results will probably be mediocre. If you aiming for high quality professional-like work then it might be quite hard for a group of college grads to achieve, especially as you wouldn’t have had that much, if any, professional production experience.
Just what do you aim to be producing… film, games?
Yeah, but no but yeah but no....

PS: Once I arrive to Ubisoft Campus I'll already have approx. 4 years of experience ahead from the other students... and as I am writing this I am wondering if I should even go to Campus Ubisoft.. I mean in 4 years will it be worth the price to go there if I have the knowledge I should have in 4 years...hmmm.. We'll see then.
