Why Maya Software is Evil
02.13.06 (9:27 am)   [edit]
For those of you playing the home game, Maya is the industry standard of computer animation software.

That said, I have no idea why this is the direction most animation and special effects are going when it seems a million times easier to draw the same thing over and over again, or to move something, take a picture, move it again.

Why my Maya, (and more specifically my Class) is evil:
1. The teacher is kind of a dick. He gives us an unseenly amount of work to see if we'll "sink or swim" then makes us rank ourselves A-F/best to worst when assignments come in

2. Rather than sitting home doing homework, I have to take a field trip downtown, wait a half hour for a cop to let me in the building (what could be so taxing to the UPD on a Sunday afternoon, I'll never know), and sit my butt there at school.

3. The software has so many damn components to it making it all very confusing and highly time consuming.

4. The book for this class: At first it really holds your hand through it. Then you get to the evil Chapter 5, and it will say, "Change texture to Clouds" and its like, "OK...where the fuck is that?!"

So after nearly 10 hours, my brain hurting, relying heavily on the only guy in the room who seemed to know what he was doing, and coming home angry and tired after doing nothing but sitting all day, I'm still not done, and I plan on going back this morning.
*Frustrated Sigh!*
At least there are only 100 days left till its over now.

Gotta paint now.

Incidentally, I have not liked my old e-mail address for...almost 5 years now (since it's a refrence to when I graduated high school) plus I get so much junk there, I've decided to open up a new address and keep it strictly only to friends and family. I will update applicable people.
