Preparing for the lessons

1. If you have not already done so, download the lesson files from http://areadownloads.autodesk.com/wdm/maya/GettingStarted2020LessonData.zip. Copy the Getting Started with Maya 2020 Lesson Files zip file to your local drive and unzip the folder.
2. Select File > Set Project and set the GettingStarted2020LessonData\CharSetup directory as your Maya project.
3. To ensure the lessons work as described, select the Animation menu set. Unless otherwise noted, the procedures in this chapter assume the Rigging menu set is selected.
