The Cyber Villa: Mastering Maya Essentials workshop aims to provide participants with a basic knowledge of polygon modelling techniques inside Autodesk Maya. This workshop will cover a range of simple modelling and geometry manipulation techniques, with a focus on designing fluid architectural forms. By the end of the workshop, participants will have a comprehensive understanding of Maya as a design tool and will be able to apply their knowledge to create a spatial Low Poly model of The Cyber Villa.

The workshop aims to provide participants with a basic knowledge of how to set up a working environment, optimise and arrange the necessary tools of the softwear and provide practical skills for designing effective geometries. As a design task, we will create a simple topology as an architectural form that is commonly used in a wide range of practices.

The main aim of the workshop is to introduce participants to a range of simple polygon mesh modelling techniques using Autodesk Maya to design fluid architectural forms. The course will provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of Maya as a design tool. and will include an introduction to setting up the programme environment, demonstrating simple modelling and geometry manipulation techniques and performing a simple design task.

Students will be introduced to a range of polygon modelling techniques inside Autodesk Maya. They will work individually on futuristic Cyber Villa Design as final design task for the workshop.

• Total sessions: one session
