Technial Tutorial (Animation)

How to Use Boolean Difference in Maya


1. Make your first shape






2. Scale it to a reasonable size






3. Align/Move the object to a position that you feel you can work with






4. Create a second shape (preferably a cylinder) and scale to to be slightly smaller than your first object.




5. Move the shape into the shape how you want it. (There are many ways to do this)








6. Select the first object you selected, then the second object. Both objects must be selected.







7.  Select Mesh>Booleans>Difference. Be careful not to select Union or Intersection because those are different tools.







8. Easy as that! You should have a shape with a gap inside of it. Feel free to add more shapes to make the shape more complex and unique.
