I know this answer is covered already but it does not seem to be working for me. How to force Google to use a keyword?
I would like to search Google and force it to return results about MotionBuilder. As you can see by the screenshot provided I have put it in double brackets like the other question has suggested. Google has ignored this however and most of the results are about Maya. Some of them are to do with motion builder but other search terms will return entirely maya results. I would like to ignore any results that do not contain the word "MotionBuilder"

I suggest that your results do contain the term you've put in quotes. It's just not displaying in the list of results. Go to the page and check. (And if you still don't see it it's entirely possible that it has been removed since the Google bot visited the page and/or people are using that keyword in their links to that content.)
If you're finding your search results are containing content you don't want, use the "negation" or "exclude" operator, which is simply a minus sign in front of the term you want to keep out of your search. For instance, if I wanted to find information about pyramids not built in Egypt, I might search for
In your specific case, since you want to find "MotionBuilder", but not "Maya", your search might look like:
