Hi all-
I have a son who loves to draw and wants to get into animation.
He's a teenager, and he is autistic.
We just got him a drawing tablet, can he draw direct into Maya or does he need to use a different program first? WIll 3ds work better?
I think he'll be more interested in using the software if he can actually draw something instead of starting with a cube and shaping it.
I think this would be a great future for him, (I think he'll be able to work through the complexity of the program with practice) but will this import his drawings?
What about Mudbox, SoftIMage, and Motionbuilder- how do those fit in?
Thanks, I appreciate the advice.
