Maya is the world\'s most powerful integrated 3D modeling, animation, effects, and rendering software. That\'s why top feature film, animation and video artists, game developers, visualization professionals, Web and print designers rely on Maya. And because Maya is based on an open architecture, all your work can be scripted or programmed using a well-documented and comprehensive API (application programming interface), or the embedded MEL scripting language.
