Need help - How to create a short 3D animation film?

[gdebojyoti]

Hello, I want to create my own short 3D animation film in Maya. Nothing too fancy. Just as a hobby.

Can anyone give me some links to some tutorials (ebook/ video/ online article) which cover this topic?
I don't need a very detailed step-by-step tutorial (though I won't say no!); but it should cover all the important points and be easy enough for a beginner/intermediate user to understand.

I have tried searching the web, but haven't been very satisfied with the results.

Regards.

Best thing is to get it and try on your own.

just search youtube and watch it carefully dude,
u can get tutorials for starters to advanced users but u need xtra confidence to learn it coz no1 become a world famous animator in just 1night.
means search wt u want b'coz my need is diffrent as u told before i'm a architech, and not an animator...........sorry for harsh words

Thanks for the advice. And I didn't find your words harsh at all.

It takes some amount of time, patience and knowledge to make a short film even of few seconds duration if you are making it single handedly. Good luck with it.
