Who this is for.
3D artists, riggers, and animators who want to bring automation and precision to their Maya workflows.
Visual learners and creatives with no prior coding experience interested in exploring Technical Art.
Aspiring Technical Artists who want to learn Python to enhance their efficiency and problem-solving skills inside Maya.
The Technical Artist’s Guide to Python in Maya is a beginner-friendly, visually oriented introduction to Python scripting tailored for Autodesk Maya users. Designed specifically for artists, riggers, and animators, this book bridges the gap between art and code, empowering creatives to automate repetitive tasks, build custom tools, and streamline complex workflows without prior programming experience.
You’ll begin by understanding Python’s role in Maya and learning how to use the Script Editor effectively. From there, you’ll dive into Python fundamentals directly within Maya, exploring concepts like variables, loops, and functions through hands-on exercises that connect programming logic with artistic tasks. As you progress, you’ll uncover the power of maya.cmds, Maya’s built-in Python module, to control objects, create interfaces, and extend Maya’s functionality in ways that save hours of manual work.
Each chapter combines clear visual explanations, practical examples, and interactive exercises designed to make scripting feel intuitive and creative. By the end of the book, you’ll have the confidence to write your own scripts, automate your daily work, and take your first steps into the world of Technical Art — turning artistic ideas into intelligent, efficient tools inside Maya.
Note: The chapters, descriptions, and main topics listed below are provisional and may be added to, merged, or otherwise modified as the video course is being developed. We’ll update this list every time a new chapter is released.
