Media Arts Center Announces June Workshops Featuring Maya 3-D!

It took a moment (and a phone call to SD Latino Film Festival programmer Glenn Heath) to sort things out.

Was the ever-industrious Maya Kroth set to teach the Media Arts Center's class on 3-D and Lighting Design for DSLR Photography or did the Media Arts Center pony up the dough to pay for a 3-D conversion of the old Jay North standby?

The joke's on me! Turns out Maya is a 3-D software program and the Media Arts Center's "Digital Gym" is turning their spring workshop into a stereoscopic workout.

The preparative class, offered every Tuesday beginning June 12th, will introduce students to the basics of navigating through Maya 3-D, modeling, lighting, and much more.
