Point 1: Yes you need to learn photoshop , illustrator because some time you need texture, backgrounds, text with some special effect. having a good knowledge of image editing tool will be very helpful to you.

Point 2: Maya is amazing software i’m loving it. Don’t be confuse just go with it..

Point 3: Better you have a basic training from any good institute, and then you get into others ( books , blogs ) to make yourself better.

+ You should have knowledge about scripting language it will make your work easier, Fair knowledge about sound,composition and mixing is not a bad thing.

This will take time, hard work …. But after a year. you will be good resource for Media & Entertainment industry.
