Maya is awesome. The interface is somewhat outdated I think, but it's
such a powerful app, there's several careers in there, not just "Maya
developer" - some people are strictly Maya moderlers, some are just Mel
scripters, some just do rendering or kinetics (though rendering is
somewhat better done in other apps more specialized in it). The physics
engine in Maya is really really impressive. Modelling isn't too hard to
learn, but you'll definitely want some books or training, the help docs
are not all that good, and it's not something more people can just pick
up, start fiddling with, and then learn it - too many dials, knobs,
bells, whistles, to learn through experimentation. I learned the basics
through some books and a quick 1x1, but it was pretty daunting at first.
