Autodesk Maya is an amazing program that is used world wide. Hollywood uses it, as well most of all of the smaller studios world wide. It is heavily relied upon for Modeling (creating 3d objects), Animation, Rigging, and more. Fortunately Autodesk has released an Education/Student version for all of us to use. Although it is limited in its usefulness (because it is a student version), it is the full version that is just locked down in a couple of areas.
