Check out how Alex Cheparev optimizes Maya, walking through his settings and workflow.

Everyone likes to set up the software to how they want to work. Some, set up workspaces that vary depending on the type of task that is at hand. In real life, adjusting the chair you sit in doesn’t sound like a critical workflow tip, but in the long run, it provides a positive towards completing more work. The same is valid for software, especially 3D software like Maya.

Of course, everyone has their preferences, but there are some excellent tips here too. If you like Alex’s setup, you can download his application preferences here.
