Modeling for Deformation in Maya (Topology for Animation Explained)

When modeling characters for animation, clean shapes alone aren’t enough — topology determines how a model deforms in motion. In this video, we explore modeling for deformation in Autodesk Maya, focusing on why certain topology works better for animation than others. Using simple examples like a finger and a leg, we compare different topology approaches and demonstrate how edge flow, loop placement, and geometry density directly affect bending, twisting, and overall deformation quality. This lesson is an introduction to character modeling theory, designed to help you make smarter modeling decisions before adding unnecessary detail. 👉 See how this theory applies in full production workflows: These concepts are expanded and applied throughout my Udemy course: Complete Animation Master Class: Create Animated Shorts with Autodesk Maya https://www.udemy.com/course/3danimat... The full course walks through modeling, deformation-ready topology, animation fundamentals, and production workflows step by step.
