Blender and Maya are two of the Best 3D packages that 3D artists use today. both of them can be great for a lot of different purposes but they also have different things to offer depending on what you want to do. Maya is an industry-standard in many industries such as VFX, animation and game development. but Blender is also a software that is growing fast lately and becoming a weapon of choice for many 3d artists. in this video, we will take a close look at both of these 3D packages and what they have to offer.

Very fair and balanced video. Blender is good if you run your own studio, but Maya is what you should learn when you have to work for other studios. I'd say learn both.

@genma986 4 года назад

Some studios have started adopting blender I think.

@chokerzin 4 года назад

In truth you really only need to learn one. What's important for most studios is the quality of your work. What matters is the result, not how you get there. Concepts and skills you learn in one program can be transferred to others. It might take some time but not that much time. Studios care about the abilities you have and what you can do, not what program you use and that's why they don't mind training someone for a few weeks in a program they don't know if they can deliver high quality products.

not really compete, Maya seems to follow the Softimage destiny under Autodesk, and 3ds max developers are also in small numbers, judging by the diet updates every year (maybe 2023 seen acceleration). Blender is also not any "we give you our software for free because we love artists you guys!" miracle, I hope that nobody is stupid enough to fall for that bullshit. The budget of these programs is in fact quite similar lately, and where the Blender is getting the money from is very different from Autodesk marketing policies. Time will show if it is the better and more viable model or not. So far I would predict it might be. But not yet. IN the future. (5+ years)

@SlayerDUDE1993 4 года назад

Blender is the ultimate software that gives you one thing that no other 3d software give. The ability to make A COMPLETE product in it. Entire short film can be made in it. But still as a blender user I know about tools blender lack and there are a lot of features still missing in it, but still, in most cases you can find workarounds. Yes, you will loose time dealing with missing features searching for solutions, and this is what you pay for free software - time. You can decide to lose time or lose money for commercial alternatives and that's how the world works.

@RyoMassaki 4 года назад

The ability to make a complete product in it is worth nothing if the tools are abysmal. Following that concept is what held Blender back for years, a generalist software that tries to do anything is always much worse than a bunch of specialized tools. Jack of all trades, master of none. And if you talk a bout time - people always underestimate what its worth. Time is money and if you follow that thought to it's logic conclusion you realize that wasting time is much worse than wasting money - you can always make money, you can never get lost time back.

@zackakai5173 3 года назад

My main issue with Blender isn't the software itself, it's the fact that most tutorials for it - which are almost all geared toward absolute beginner modelers - teach newbies to be over-reliant on modifiers like the subsurf. To be clear, those are incredibly powerful tools, but they're not a substitute for having good hard surface topology in place. I started with Blender (back in like the 2.4 days) and I struggled for years to figure out why my meshes all looked so blobby and poorly-defined. Wasn't until I switched to Maya for school that I figured out the reason was because I was modeling WAY too low-poly and trying to rely on the subsurf modifier to create far too much of my geometry, because that's how I had been taught to work. Once I actually had to start defining where my polys went, my models started looking infinitely better.

@tom_paul_3d 2 года назад

I think thats less of a software issue and more of a finding the right tutorial issue.

As someone who worked in Maya for a while and now not being able to afford it, I was really unsure if Blender was worth trying but I can definitely see now that there's waaay more to it than I thought. I'm genuinely excited to learn it now lol. And of course it being free is the biggest plus, especially since I'm not losing much in terms of necessities.

@postmodernerkindergartner960 2 года назад

It's not only free, it's way more fun to me to model than in 3dsmax. Also it feels good because theoretically you could do everything in blender without any 3rd party software.

Blender use to be specific software, let say not easily adopted with right click select, no undo, terrible UI and UX etc but over time thanks to many people all over the world blender keep developing and become better and better month by month, big improvement where blender atrack many artist, big company and other was by releasing 2.8 version in that version blender finally imrpove so many things that is like million times better then beffore, all new interface, evee real time render engine etc. It become more easy to try it amd work with then ever before. About which one you should pick i'd say start with one and if you are seriouse soon or later you will learn it both. Maya is still amazing software and industry standard specialy in film industry but blender is powerful as well and id say way more supperior then maya in some field. Also, Blender is developing insainly fast and developer are listen to artist. Hope i help you understand better what was "dark time" for blender :)

Maya currently has the advantage of their paid license, which means that the income from monthly subscriptions can pay for more coders and programmers to continuously improve. On the other hand, Blender's catching up. The 2.8 release has attracted a lot of new 3D modelers, as well as veterans. Epic Games and Ubisoft took notice, giving the Blender team huge grants, and the Japanese anime studio Khara has made the switch to Blender. With the sudden influx of users, the big community of tutorial channels for beginners and intermediates, and being noticed by game and animation companies means that not only is Blender catching up, more and more studios are likely to make the switch. What will that mean for Maya? Who knows.

Next time you claim that nobody gives money to Blender, maybe put your money where your mouth is. Literally multimillion dollar companies are paying the checks of Blender developers to make it the best thing it can be. As for "nefarious actors" who'd mess with the code, maybe don't download Blender from anywhere except the Official Website/Steam Page? The code is open source so that other people can create their own specialized version of Blender. It doesn't mean that just anyone can contribute to the official release.

In fact one of the VFX houses I am close to here in Los Angeles even had the Blender team pay them a visit to go over some stuff with their CG team. Another studio working on some popular shows is almost entirely a Blender house, with nuke being used for compositing. One of the Captain America films used Blender for the look dev. I am finding more and more artist in big studios adopting Blender over the alternatives, especially when the studio either allows it or has a copy of blender installed on every workstation. Ubisoft's animation department also switch over, but that's more on the game (cutscene/trailer) side of things. This points towards some significant level of industry adoption, not nearly as great as some of the fanboys want us to think but its certainly happening.

i wanna point out that the mentioned sculpting and boolean features are very likley to not be used in big productions. Every 3D software has sculpting features now a days but that does not mean they are better than ZBrush / Mudbox / 3DCoat those tool are highly optimized only for sculpting and therefor will be used in production because of that. Also Booleans are usually a big no no, as for movie productions everything needs to be subdivided and using booleans usually costs you more time in cleaning up your mesh afterwards than modeling it by hand in the first place. Also the renderengine, for studios it is mostly interesting how customizeable it is. for example how easy is it to create custom aov's or custom shaders. So far in every single production i worked on i needed to generate custom aov's and arnold or renderman or mantra provide you amazing toolsets to set them up for example. I don't say cycles does not, i never worked with cycles, i just wanna again point out that studios care a lot about the efficiency of a tool. On some productions we needed to write our own hair shader or did setup a prodcution wide default shader for most surfaces, this is the important part for studio productions, how flexible is the tool to be able to fit it into the pipeline. I also kinda disagree on the animation part, i think every tool has the rigging and animation capabilities that maya have, the only reason is as you mentioned that people are used to it and it is the software which get's teached in schools. about a Year ago we wanted to try to switch to blender because honestly maya overall is a pretty shitty tool actually because is has more bugs and poorly implemented features than any other software. But we were not able to find enough artists for blender so we are still forced to stick with maya. Overall for our studio the reason why blender is so attractive is because of its API and the fact that you can customize everything. Because besides maya and houdini no other software on the market really allows you to go into it very deep and access or manipulate core mechanics as you need it.

@chokerzin 4 года назад

@TheLumberjack1987 4 года назад

absolutely agree, I work for a company which uses Blender instead of Maya for 6 months now. blender can't handle basic things, world space transforms are broken, undo takes forever on big scenes, the knife tool creates extra vertices randomly, visibility in the viewport is a general pain on big sets. Python scripts from 2.79 don't work in 2.8, which had our TDs rework all the pipeline scripts and the list goes on and on and on. In my experience the only people who think Blender is generally better than other packages are those who haven't worked with other packages long enough, those who don't have to work on complex scenes or those who have just started learning 3D. I'm using the best tool for a certain job and that is not always Maya, but Blender fanboys seem to have this need to prove to the world that Blender is better in everything no matter what.

@christiansandrini96 4 года назад

I agree on everything but I want to point out something about rigging since it is the thing that I love the most as a freelancer. Blender has a lot of capabilities but so many times you are forced to make extremely complicated systems compared to Maya. I always found blender's way of organizing things a bit confusing. Like the constraints stack that is disjointed from your scene outline and things like that. So many times things that are made easy in Maya, things like stretches or ribbons for example, are just not worth the time to do it in blender. Just export the obj and do it in another software

Everything in blender is shinier but once you look past the surface, it's pretty inefficient and straight up unusable in a big production setting. Animating in blender is a giant pain in the ass, and rigging is terrible, thus people gravitate towards add on's that solve issues, but are not really sustainable on a big scale. And people complaint about Maya's stability as if it's crashing all the time. I work with Maya everyday all day, and have been for the last 15+ years, and it's nowhere as unstable as people are making it up to be. Does it crash? yes, of course. But I might get a crash every couple of weeks, sometimes none in months. Does blender crash? Yes. It's crashed on me multiple times following tutorials. Most of these blender fanboys are young guys who are going into 3d for the first time and benefit from blender allowing them to do contained scenes with a renderer that gives them decent looking output without much effort, but they end up doing things and having workflows that would get you laughed out of any studio. Blender is pretty great, specially for a free software, but this constant need to be shitting on other software to prop up theirs is super tiring and just cultish.

I think blender is a really good software. You can't compare it with the others. I also think that it can change the industry if the developers make their job good. Alone with that facts blender is better than any other software. And it doesn't matter which software you use. It's about the result. And I think you can do almost everything with blender. And when we wait a few years. You can do everything in blender

@m0rph3u5. 4 года назад

If you are a game developers, the main areas that matter the most and where Maya still beats blender are: retopologizing (with Quad draw tool), UV unwrapping (since 2018 when autodesk introduced the unfold3d technology), and rigging. I was thinking of switching to Blender since its free and more affordable for an indie developer; however, switching to Blender would mean relying on other external software for retopologizing (like Topogun |which costs |$100) and UV unwrapping (like RizomUV which costs~$150), the combination of which would be more expensive than a MayaLT license (let alone giving away Maya's powerful rigging and animation tools). All other stuff don't really matter e.g. particles, physics, materials, rendering..etc since I use UE4 P.S. I already have Zbrush & substance painter perpetual licenses (however, I am relying now more on Quixel Megascans within UE4 which are superb and FREE)

@julius7506 Год назад

Blender has improved much recently. An experienced modeler can perform retopolization, rigging and UV unwrapping within blender. Also there are certain free and paid addons for more efficient workflow. Retopolization is the only case where Maya would be better because it's a time consuming process.

@@11RIHAM In all professional works, 3D graphics are made based on the concept and references made by 2D artist.

MASTER any software , the base remiains the same , but the mastery is in your understanding of 3D functionality and visualization , seriously speaking, i myself started with Blender when i was very new, was practising through the basic procedural functionality, no geometry node, no basic fuctionality of houdini, still it was enough for my visualization as a newbie, that 1 years in blender really paced my learning curve for 3d understanding, and houdini was not very hard for me, it took me just 2 years to be able to use it for my visualization to reality. So just do in which ever you do, the box will be a cube, planes will be grids. BTW Blender will not always remain the same, the way the developers are building upgrades and feautures, in next 5 years Blender can be a very good may be not the best , but at least an acceptable industry standard.

Reasons not to use maya: Autodesk. A company that's too big to fail, will shit on a plate, call it a new feature and empty the wallets of small studios who think the only way to "stand out" is to use maya. Regardless of how good the software is the company is so fucking dubious it's honestly mind boggling that people would want to give them money. But yeah, to answer the question of which is better, using the cracked version of maya to model and rig and then importing into blender to make it look like you didn't use maya in the first place is by far the best workflow :-).

@503 Workshop That's not true. Arnold has been recently integrated into Maya. There are some features, like batch rendering, that are not available without purchasing it. Otherwise, it is fully functional and can be used as a regular renderer. Remember, you're dealing with commercial software. The software and pricing are not designed with "consumers" in mind. You're essentially paying for stable software and actual support. Many studios would probably use a different renderer anyway.

Another question here. That is almost about scene optimization, especially in games. I may be wrong in some cases but as I figured it out by myself there is a difference methods of creating different shapes of objects which using different algorithms resulting in different number of polygons. And as far as I know Maya in this case is more superior comparing to Blender. So my question here: - Is this correct?

@julius7506 Год назад

Well both softwares have complex algorithms working in the back to create stuffs, while user only see the ui, tools and windows. Same as how OS works. But when creating shapes and complex scenes, all modeling softwares give you full control over number of polygons you need. So you can create, let's say a ball, using 20 polygons to 200 million polygons, in both softwares. It's all upto you. Therefore, one can't compare based on number of polygons used. Though you can compare based on tools and features, ease of use, efficiency, workflow, ability to handle large scenes, rendering speed and quality. And pricing.

I am a generalist in 3d, I have used both but I have to say that maya is a more powerful software, starting with its render engine, Arnold, Arnold is used for cinematographic films like gravity, the avengers, to give examples, Blender is free and at Being free does not have a good technical support so if something serious happens to you with the program you have to find them, instead Autodeskt has a technical support that responds in 24 hours, if you have any problem with the software and that is very important. But saying this does not mean that blender is bad, blender is an evolving software, and it has powerful tools such as digital sculpting that despite not having the power of zbrush can achieve the same result if you are a good artist. The conclusion is: If you have a study of vfx, videogames etc ... you have to have the support of these companies since it is money that is lost when something is not resolved quickly, but if you are a freelance the choice is yours and it gives Just like software you use, because any 3d software exports in fbx or obj.

Modeling... 1. You can model in Maya with NURBS, which are still best among 3D animation software, fully integrated into the pipeline. 2. You have paint effects, which are unique modeling/animation tool you have nowhere else. 3. Subdivision surfaces, which you don't have in blender. No, the subds modifier is not the same as modeling with fully supported modeling in Subds. 4. MASH. 5. Fluids, including 3D fractals. 6. Bifrost. 7. Various plugins over the years, free and commercial ones, hardmash for example, mainframe sets and boolean tools, etc. Main point with scupting is number of polygons. If you have a lot of polygons and you want to sculpt, there is a separate tools like mudbox (which usually you got with maya subscriptions), Zbrush, 3D Coat, Sculptris. There is no coincidence that Zbrush is standard for sculpting due to it's superb performance and range of tools. BTW you also have plugins for sculpting for maya, some of which work nicely with animation as well. So which one is better at sculpting ? Zbrush.
