Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world
Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

animate end sweep of a poly cylendar for motion graphics project

Im working on a motion graphics piece and I have ran into a wall...I need a way to animate a pizza slice type of geometry. I need to be able to animate the sweep in some sense...I know you can do it with nurbs but nurbs cylendars are open on the caps, as well as there would be an opening in the cylendar as soon as I animate the sweep...take a look at the reference pics I attached. any Ideas would be great
