Also with Maya, keep in mind is it's a very expansive program. And along with Dynamics, Animation and with Animation instead of making a giant character with lots of bones in it I bet you got to know what the Bone Tool was when you first made your first bone, but did you get to look at all the Properties of it? No, so I try to cover that a lot better within this series so you can reference what a tool does very quickly with this series. That's kind of a waste of a lot of time just to show you what the Extrude Tool does. So, there's a lot of times that I include the workflow along with the tools, so what I mean by concise nature I mean I don't waste time in making a huge giant robot just to show you what the Extrude Tool does. I cover the tools, what they do, how to work them and then in a couple of the things I even give you a workflow on how to maybe make a polygon model and then go all the way up to texture and rendering it.
So, when I cover this I cover it as a very conceptual thing. You can add new things to your Viewports a lot easier, so as far as modeling tools and rendering and everything else, the tools are pretty much the same but the UI interface really makes up for the changes along with all the bug fixes that they've put into Maya 2011. You can add new things that shelf a lot easier. So now Maya 2011's here, a brand new UI interface, very expandable. Before, you know, the UI interface was a little, a little boring at times because it hasn't been changed in quite a number of years.
