This question is for both of you guys. Can you tell me how you add audio effects in your videos? Is there any audio package/website where i can download them?
DUDE Blender 3.2 was released almost a year ago and I somehow I never got told that we finally have Light groups! This is a gamechanger for everybody with a slow PC who cant just rerender a scene just to make small adjustments. Thank you very much!
This is always good info to go over again. I use Eevee for my animations. I fake global Illumination by adding lights, for example an area light on the ground pointing straight up imitates light bouncing off the ground. You actually get more control that way, artistic license at the cost of mathematical accuracy. It works for animation.
WOW. This video has everything I needed to perfect my lighting set up. Specially "over exposed" images since there's no tutorial regarding how to properly overexpose 3D renders to achieve realism. Keep it up man.
I discovered you today and I don’t understand why you don’t have a million subscribers at least… you explain everything that no one does in the best and easiest way possible
Спасибо, классный рассказ и понятный. Но в любом случае нужно потренироваться лично, иначе результата не будет. Я кстати не знал, что на свет можно нодами настраивать
well done covering these, Portal was another Light which Blender Guru has a video or two uses, and maybe CG cookie, blender is so versatile. You also have laser if you utilise the free Luxcore Renderer. As a photographer too it's good to learn photo lighting techniques we use in the real world as you correctly mention, good work and hope you have an awesome time in Japan.
Thanks! Yeah the options or infinite basically. These are just things that ship with Blender. But if you start introducing addons the possibilities grow exponentially!
Hi -- this is the one. This is my favorite lighting tutorial. Well edited / presented, gets to the point, lots of helpful tips. No, this wasn't written by ChatGPT-- thanks for posting!
Easy to understand lighting tutorial, though i knew most, there was information I didn't know about! Very helpful for the fake lights, i had no idea that existed and just eyeballed all of my lighting 😂
I know I'm late to the party here but thank you so much for making this video. Man I've been wanting to learn more on this and what great coverage here. Appreciate the work!
You forgot to discuss custom emission lighting methods for specific situations well the standard lights are not the best. Also how to light specific surface to ensure the best render of subsurface, cavity, reflections, volumetrics and ambient occlusions. This I guess was more of a general overview of lighting in comparison to traditional lighting used for photography and filmmaking. Ok thanks for the link to the old build on blender I forgot about the GI Eveeve build. I downloaded it ages ago before and totally forgot about it.
Good ones! To be fair I forgot a TON of things, or moreso I didn't forget, but I could've made this video 50 minutes long with lighting tips and tricks haha.
Gobos, never heard this term before... Odd. Thank you for putting a name to a technique I knew about but never had a name for...also the add-on information.
Amazing bro. Your way of teaching things is excellent. I was following blenderguru and arijan but their method of teaching is not good. I got all the points from your video by going through once. Thank you and keep sharing knowledgeable videos
Not sure if it ever will. But with EEVEE Next there will be a lot of changes to make EEVEE more realistic. Think in terms of making it more like Unreal in a sense and mimicing Cycles more. So it might just include IES and other lighting features!
I would be 300 times better at my blender work, if I could just figure out the materials conundrum. Even with texture maps provided by professionals, I rarely get results that I find believable.
Honestly, lighting and displacement are the 2 main things that make a difference for your materials. Get good lighting and add the RIGHT amount of displacement and your scenes will look great!
It's not an addon! It's a standalone build of Blender. It's a 3.1 dedicated branch. So you'll have to open whatever project you have in that separate build.
In all honesty I 100% prefer Desktops for Blender and work in general. But a laptop in any case would need a decent beefy GPU and CPU to function well. Any laptop with an RTX 30 series card and a decent Intel or Ryzen CPU will do :-). Also try and get as much RAM as possible!
I guess maybe you could sort of. But AO looks at concave and convex shapes and doesn't respect bounce lighting etc. In that regard GI is more or less a raytracing thing and can't be copied like that.
@@KaizenTutorials Definitely, its different paths to create similar results. The more I dive into blender the more there is to learn, so yeah, these tutorials help in many ways.
Who understood entire video Lets frame it this way What percentage of [00:00 to 10:03]min video u understood ? Two category 1 )Understood - thumbs up 2)NOT UNDERSTOOD - thumbs down * *What u don't know Will help u enhance u know
in the section about light color temperature do you have any idea why my point light has no "nodes" dropdown menu like yours does? it has a shadow dropdown instead with no toggle for using nodes
That's weird.. did you plug it into the right socket? Also the plane needs to be close to the light source. You can also mix it with a mix shader and a transparent BSDF. Then change the factor to get the result you want!
Sadly no not really! This mainly covers the actual Blender lights - Spot, Area and Point - and a bunch of tips and tricks for those lights. However a lot of it is applicable to outdoor lighting!
I wanted to, specifically about Simulation Nodes. But they weren't included in the final build so I went for this one! But they're coming in 3.6 so you can DEFINITELY expect a video on that!
It’s not my addon actually! But I believe it’s cycles onyl as it needs light nodes which aren’t available in EEVEE. But to be sure you can contact the creator on Blendermarket.
Uhm it's not an addon. It's a standalone build. So you can just download the latest version and run the Blender .exe inside of the folder and that should have the SSGI EEVEE build.
This is gonna be *_LIT_*

This question is for both of you guys.
Can you tell me how you add audio effects in your videos?
Is there any audio package/website where i can download them?
Epidemic sound is what I use for all my SFX! Link is in the video description 👍🏻
@@KaizenTutorials Thanks bro. 🙏
@@shubhamvyas9459 Yeah, same deal here. Epidemic is the GOAT.
But also I spend way too much time finding niche video game SFX 💀
I prefer to render using no lights, then let the viewer use their imagination. Also renders really fast.
Ooh nice, yeah! I like recording my videos without turning on my mic and camera. Makes for a real clean look in the final tutorial!
😂😂
Noice
That’s my entire work flow, developed over many years of experience (for “experience” read “sloth”).
😂😂

Wow! 10 mns is worth my whole month study. Thanks, brother! God always bless you!
You are very welcome, glad you like it!
The best option for lighting is a softbox, which I learned about in this video. Thank you so much! I will save this tutorial to my playlist.
Awesome, glad I could help 🙌

great video thank you! quite a distracting light in your bg though 😀
Thanks!
Super detailed and helpful 🔥🔥

Awesome! Lighting is amazing to get better results. For real life settings and for 3D alike!
Blender "Light Linking" is available in Branch build
Yeah I heard! An amazing feature for Blender to finally get! :-D
awesome video love your video
Thanks so much!
Thanks bro for give me this addon
You’re welcome!
I wish I got onto the blender bandwagon a lot earlier, but instead I found C4D 😊.
C4D is great too, but yeah Blender definitely wins in regards of community, free learning material and overall being the GOAT 3D software ofcourse.
@@KaizenTutorials now, yes.
I would be 300 times better at my blender work, if I could just figure out the materials conundrum. Even with texture maps provided by professionals, I rarely get results that I find believable.

Wow! Please! Make a quick tutorial with this "Monkey Light" on the video preview. Greetings from Ukraine❤️
Maybe someday I will, thanks! Greetings from the Netherlands!
@@KaizenTutorials :))) Thank you) That's an amazing "contrast fashion light".
does the SSGI addon not work on the newest versions of blender?
It's not an addon! It's a standalone build of Blender. It's a 3.1 dedicated branch. So you'll have to open whatever project you have in that separate build.
@@KaizenTutorials ooooh, alright.
ty!
i came here for the memes (i died on the eevee next when? part) ,Aside from jokes sick tutorial as well though.
Thanks as always Alexandros! Appreciate it 🙌🏻
@@KaizenTutorials just saying what i am seeing hehe! Keep making amazing stuff.
"THE MARTIAN" book has mirror UV at 0:11. )))
Hahaha lol how did you even notice that
don t be afraid to overexpose : true
Yeah, adding light is waaaay harder in post than removing light. As long as you’re not clipping a LOT ofcourse!
You can set an image as the color in a light's shader. It's easier to make gobos that way.
Nice!
Only subscribing to beat @Smeaf in your race to 100k 🚀

@@KaizenTutorials Nooo! Your tutorials are also great :P
Ooh ok phew had me sweating there 😜

Thank you for this video! What laptops do you prefer for using blender? Thank you!!

Maybe I mix things up here, but can't you get global illumination by using ambient occlusion?
I guess maybe you could sort of. But AO looks at concave and convex shapes and doesn't respect bounce lighting etc. In that regard GI is more or less a raytracing thing and can't be copied like that.
Lighting is easy for me in 2d but 3d is a bit more challenging
Yeah I can imagine, it's similar but also very different. Hope this video helps a little!

Two category
1 )Understood - thumbs up

*What u don't know

quick question for the box/cube in your area light demo. the top of the cube feels it's glowing/blooming in the render. how did you achieve that?
I turned on Bloom and use enough power for the light. Nothing else really, just basic settings no additional complex stuff.
in the section about light color temperature do you have any idea why my point light has no "nodes" dropdown menu like yours does? it has a shadow dropdown instead with no toggle for using nodes
i figured it out, it has to be in cycles, the option isn't there in eevee
Well done!
great stuff but the translucent bsdf material still appears solid in cycles for me. what am i missing?
That's weird.. did you plug it into the right socket? Also the plane needs to be close to the light source. You can also mix it with a mix shader and a transparent BSDF. Then change the factor to get the result you want!
