Week 1

Programming for Animation
A downloadable project

For my first week we explored basic python, by trying to create a cube.  I started off by learning how to import the Maya python module so that I could access the functions and classes provided by Maya. Next, I learned about some basic Maya python functions that are commonly used in 3D graphics and animation. For example, I learned about the "polyCube" function, which creates a cube with a polygonal mesh. To create a cube. We used variables to hold information about the length, width and height then using those variables to build a cube.
