Learn to define muscle systems with Maya and to determine the behavior of elastic masses with this TECH postgraduate certificate''

The use of muscular systems is of particular importance depending on production needs. For example, in fighting video games such as WWE or Street Fighter they play a fundamental role, since many of the characters have no clothes and the movements and collisions of the human body are continuous. This makes an analysis of human muscles absolutely necessary.

Once this anatomical analysis has been carried out, the program provides for the creation and configuration of capsules. As well as the conversion of rig elements to capsules. This is followed by a complete introduction to the creation, editing and finishing of muscles with the Muscle Builder tool.

When deforming, Muscle Spline Deformer will be used for both muscle and skin. Emphasizing deformation displacement or strength, jiggle and heavy muscle. Finally, collisions with KeepOut nodes and cache will be worked on to handle performance issues.

These contents will be taught in online format, without timetables and with all topics available from the first day. All you need is a device with Internet access. In this way, students will be able to organize themselves according to their needs, thus enhancing the assimilation of learning.

Learn how to convert rig elements into capsules, as well as how to create and configure them through this program"

This postgraduate certificate in Rigging for Muscular Systems contains the most complete and up-to-date scientific program on the market. The most important features include:

• El desarrollo de casos prácticos presentados por expertos Rigging para Sistemas Musculares
• The graphic, schematic and eminently practical contents with which it is conceived provide scientific and practical information on those disciplines that are essential for professional practice
• Practical exercises where self-assessment can be used to improve learning
• Its special emphasis on innovative methodologies
• Theoretical lessons, questions to the expert, debate forums on controversial topics, and individual reflection assignments
• Content that is accessible from any fixed or portable device with an Internet connection

In this course you will learn the differences between the upper and lower body when it comes to generating muscular systems"

The program’s teaching staff includes professionals from the sector who contribute their work experience to this training program, as well as renowned specialists from leading societies and prestigious universities.

The multimedia content, developed with the latest educational technology, will provide the professional with situated and contextual learning, i.e., a simulated environment that will provide immersive training programmed to train in real situations.

This program is designed around Problem-Based Learning, whereby the professional must try to solve the different professional practice situations that arise during the academic year. For this purpose, the student will be assisted by an innovative interactive video system created by renowned and experienced experts.

TECH instructors will teach you how to work with Muscle Builder so that you can edit the shape of your muscles in a professional way"

Skin deformation has some specific needs. Thanks to TECH's training program, you will learn how to correct them with Muscle Deformer"

Graduates of the postgraduate certificate will have an in-depth knowledge of the muscular anatomy of the human body and its specific specifications for film and video games.

They will learn how to use Maya's Muscle Builder tool, as well as how to set up skin deformation and muscle behavior and collisions. Finally, we will work with the cache to optimize the muscular mechanisms as much as possible.

In the topic dedicated to skin deformation you will learn how to connect muscle objects to muscle deformers"
