Yesterday morning I was browsing through the maya help files when I came across something interesting; Maya Live.
It's a basically a fairly-easy-to-get-the-hang-of 3D motion tracking plugin for Maya.
Why the fook isn't there more stuff on this on the internet!? No tutorials, barely any documentation.
Luckily the Maya help files are actually really useful in this instance.
Anyway, after only half an hour of fiddling around and some rough tracking, I was a able to produce this;
The model is just an unfinished enzo ferrari I've been modelling for a while (haven't had the chance to work on it in ages though), I'll post some finished renders when I'm done, no doubt motion tracked to some live background footage. Awesome.

Hey guys,
Im trying to learn Live as well and I must say that only with the help files, it's quite difficult.
I've came accross a couple of sources:

http://www.adv.md/ilee/En/tutor02Main.html (this looks pretty good)
http://www.jeremyraven.co.nz/tutorials.html (it's down at the moment, but might get fixed)
good luck! and that's some incredible job for a first try!
Haha!
