INTRODUCING MR CONSOLI & HIS MAYA YOU TUBE GODSEND


Spent a lot of non timetabled study to work through the you tube classes that Robert Consoli posted from his funded work at Hull University.
The HullUniLecturer video classroom includes software tutorials, design lectures (coming soon) and examples of students' work from The University of Hull @ Scarborough's Digital Design programmes. This interactive site encourages designers from around the world to participate in the classroom experience along with students currently enrolled on the degree programmes.

This is a pilot programme supported by a recent research grant, and your participation is encouraged and vital to the project. Your comments, video ratings and video responses to the exercises at the end of the series are especially welcome. Please join us and subscribe to this channel now. We'll look forward to seeing your work!
These series of tutorials gave me a little confidence to play with some basic elements of Maya in the hope of utilising the skills in my project, however this was not the case except for the texture on the blinns.
Found the frustrations of not being competent in the basics of Maya annoying given the time I tried to invest in improving. The research for this project came along as I revised how the roof of the car park will look when I know how in Maya. I found a couple of sites on-line where Church’s have used solar power created from solar powered roofing to generate energy while mixing the materials of the original building with slate roof tiles and solar and how this looks in context.
