This is great news for our graduates; Autodesk offers junior animators the chance to "become a pro at a price you can afford". No longer are digital artists and animators blocked from entering the market for making animated films in Maya by the high price tag for a commercial license.
Autodesk is currently piloting indie versions of Maya so that recent graduates, freelancers, hobbyists and those starting out in the industry have a more affordable option to use the software. This means that a Bucks graduate could take on, for example, a small indie project with a modest budget - perhaps £1-2,000 - and still make a profit on the job.

In the meantime, of course, our students can get hold of a free student license for Maya, which is restricted to non-commercial use.
