i've been looking at a lot of different tutorials . This is the best one I've come across. As someone with bad adhd It takes me a lot longer for things to fully absorb sometimes, which is frustrating, but finding a good teacher to learn from is really huge. Props man
@@DerekElliott I've subscribed, because this tutorial has helped me get my head around several concepts and you explain things in a very clear way. Plus this animation just looks cool! Thank you :D.
I woke up this morning and the first thing I did was following this tutorial :) It's stuffed with great tips. The world sky tip and the color object with light tip are so useful! I didn’t know about this. Thank you for another great tutoriel ;-)
This one I reaaaali liked :) all process details shown pretty good, I wish that cell-phone commercial tutorial could be re-mastered same way some day. But thumb up here!!!
It is because your object is not selected. You need to select your object by left click and move over your object until it becomes orange (which means it is selected).
@Derek 5:16 You said press E and Z and extrude up a little. I could not do the same. I am a beginner and I am now stuck. I tried to figure it out and had no luck. I really like what you did here. However as a complete Blender beginner (with a strong technical foundation in coding) I still could not reproduce your tutorial.
I saw your email I'm sorry that this isn't as much for beginners as it might have suggested please let me know what else went wrong and maybe we can figure it out
@@DerekElliott thank you. The issue is my knowledge of the program. I would genuinely appreicate how to extrude the text at the time stamp identified. Sincerest thanks Sir.
in the latest blender i cant seem to edit the text when i press tab to jump in the edit mode the only thing i can do is to add a text or scale it or draw some lines over the text, but am not able to separate the whole text in to individual words plz help
@@erpangustiarto420 I just looked up mouth pop up sound effect, there's quite a few. Alternatively, I also just downloaded the video and trimmed the audio part of the animation- when it is played in silence (w/o his voice in the background) ;) hope this helps!
5:29 in, when you do "E" "Z" you said, it doesn't do what it did for you... and I have no idea how to do what you did! That doesn't help me when I'm trying to learn...
Having an issue with Blender 2.81 (current release). When I do a 'Convert to Mesh' on the lettering, the right side Object/Edit/Properties panel changes from 'Text' to 'Object' but the text characters remain as one group of letters (the word tutorial) and do not separate into individual mesh items. When I right click the mouse on the text characters again, the option to 'Convert to Mesh' is gone, but the word remains unchanged in the 3D view panel. Did something change between Blender 2.80 and 2.81?
Man I have looking for a video like and am glad I found you , if there was someone to teach like this in high I would be a astronaut now lol just joking am half way there just stuck on animation part I would really love to get your views on it if that is possible . Thank you for the work Derek.
@@DerekElliott Am almost done with the steps but not sure what final render output settings should I set to . Because when I set to 2080 , frame rate 24 , mpeg4 format it is taking forever and rendering all the 250 frames and almost in the end the render screen turns black . Am afraid all my work is gone and the work is exactly the same as the video . :(
Weird issue. Whenever I go to seperate all the letters with shortcut “p”....all the letters seperate except 1 of them.....yes I pressed “a” to select all before doing that. And I cant just mouse click my seperated letters either. Plus the one letter is still just a bunch of vertices. HELP
I'm having an issue where I can't get the sky to change. It remains grey, is there anything I could be doing wrong? I've gone back through the video and it doesn't seem as though I have missed a step.
@@DerekElliott Im having a similar problem. I have removed the doubles but still sticking together when im trying to animate the separate letters. (Blender 2.9).
I know if any one can make a video on real-life Character modelling in a way that anyone can follow then it's only n only you.. By the way a I'm waitin' for one! Thanks a lot again:)
I get as far as the animation set up and setting the keyframes, but when I move the letters they are breaking into parts and some of the surfaces do not move at all, leaves hollow letters. Anyone got any ideas? I'm in 2.82.7
Lol, this is pure genius, "even if your word doesn't have an 'a' in it but it should haven an 'a' in it" cracked me up :D

Btw tutoriel is the french word for tutorial
I have heard this. So I'm either joking or I'm French. There is no in between. My spelling is perfikt.
@@DerekElliott xD
yep! merci pour le tutoriel en tout cas :)
was gonna like but it's at 69 soo
it is also an undertale joke.
Awesome, would have been embrassing if you made a typo!
OH NO
Great tutorial, much appreciated. The tpyo was hguely distroctung. Too tums up.
Nah it was still a great tutoriel
It's because the video was made for the french version of the tutorial.
Great videos!
It looked annoying the typo but it didn’t change just how good the tutoriel is
Your voice is so asmr, I was having too much relaxation while making this excellent project in blender!
I've come back to this video several times to cement everything I've learnt from it and this tutoriel makes me giggle every time.
So good to know 😊

You mean Tutoriel, don't forget that....
Your tutorials are top of my playlist these days - thanks for all the effort!
Thanks Warf

This guy is a great 3D artist plus has top level banter.......
This is the best... LEARNT A LOT... please do a realistic skin texture in blender 2.81 next... Loved the semi-realistic one though.
O maybe! That gets in to a lot of adcanced scanning and painting. Check out Yansculpts on UA-cam
Why are Blender youtubers funny? Good stuff man.
Because blender makes you happy so you can't help but laugh.
Dude great tutorial, I really appreciate how you take your time to explain how to do the little steps!
Thanks!
with some distance the best tutorial i've seen so far.
Thanks Kevin
Thanks Dude. Fast, stright to the point and without taking long innecessary explanations.
Glad you liked it
Intro for my website AND UA-cam channel is spot on!
Derek.... You just changed all intros from here on out. Great video!
As a newbie to Blender, I can't thank you enough. Awesome.
Thanks!
3:14 "you might as well be using microsoft word" that got 😂😂
love your simple straight forward style and loved your stuff at the conference ~ big thanks
He had a conference?!

Thanks so much! I'd love to see more tutorials on packaging/product design. If you feel so inspired :)
There will be more!
I like the touch of humor, new subscriber :)
awww i really want the blender sequence tutorial right when i needed you most you vanished.
Can u then use this text in blender vase or not. Because I want to put it over some modern warfare cinematics is possible.

Aww yeah I know I left some out there but it would have been too long!
I genuinely love you
we need more tutorials in the world like these. Super helpful, and no annoying voice either. :)
more tutoriels please. doesn't feel like one. the best kind. yeah.
When I press E & Z on my keyboard after clicking mesh it literally does nothing
same
It is because your object is not selected. You need to select your object by left click and move over your object until it becomes orange (which means it is selected).
just press tab and a before
@@ruilopes506 Thank you - that was a few more steps, than suggested
We’re you in edit mode and have all the vertices selected cause if you didn’t it won’t work
at 5:23 when i try moving it as a individual object it stretches from the base
Wow, glad I found this before I tried modelling the letters by hand 😳
Yeah! hahahahha

Awesome Tutorial Derek
I was expecting a full list of external movie editors at the end. :-)
Love the humor.
Keep up the great work.

Glad you enjoyed it Henry I'll try to cover some external editors at some point
Good tutorial! Many thanks. Blender is really awesome!
Heck yeah it is
Wooooow, it's really cool! Thanks for your work :)

Wow, this is my first video watched from your channel. Great work, nice humor :) keep it up! Thanks for the video, greetings from the netherlands :)
Greetings! Thanks for watching
this is really amazing and skill developing video ❤❤. Can you tell me which sound did you use in final animation?
Awesome tutorial.. :-) but i have a doubt that how you added the sound.....
Lol fun and informative. Voice as if from the inside of your head. Makes us think we figured this out ourselves 😅👍🏻
Hey Derek, where did you get the little "bleep" sounds when the letters appear?
did u find out?
Nope...😢
me too, please anyone tell me about this sfx _-"

Will do!
can anyone tell me why am i not getting that " II " button on top right in 10:34
Please someone help me with this
I think something changed in 2.9
nice, thanks derek
e and z is not working for me. is there a place on the side panel i can click?
Hi! thank you so much for the tutorial. I'm new to Blender, could someone tell me how you got the orangey outline at 4:11 minutes?
It is wireframe mode with x-ray on.
this video is a fever dream
Very nice tutorial!
Thanks!
Thanks derek you've got a new subscriber
Welcome to tha paaartaayy
Tutoriel is a secret boss in Diablo 3, an angel of course.
If I want to change the content of the text after I finished doing all the animation and stuff, how can I do ?
I don't think that will work with the methods I show here. You'd need to do a more procedural approach that I'm less familiar with
thank you! how to make sharp edges on the edges of the text? they are smooth for an hour. and so that you can change the text.
He's back :)
I am
where can i get the sound track
This is exactly the type of stuff I downloaded Blender to learn about.
Niiice
Just found your channel from a shoutout from Zach Reinhardt from CG Boost. I enjoy your channel very much.
Thanks for coming over!
Best tut on UA-cam. this Humor is sick :3
Siiiick
Thank you so much.but i didn't get the color.when i do exactly you said but the color is less.so please reply how to fix that
Sorry I'm not sure I understand

Look at the top left of your screen where it says object mode. It should be in edit mode

Hmm hard to tell the issue but you may need to separate the letters with 'P' in edit mode
hello. Have you try the TextFx add on ?
You can do it, but it's not destructive.
I haven't tried it I'll have to take a look
Man I have looking for a video like and am glad I found you , if there was someone to teach like this in high I would be a astronaut now lol just joking am half way there just stuck on animation part I would really love to get your views on it if that is possible . Thank you for the work Derek.

It's hard to say what happened here I would repeat the process and take note of what you have selected in and out of edit mode
4:20 HAHAHHA you killed me there man
Excuse me, I follow your instructions, but I don't know how to separate the letters?
love this channel!!!❤
Thanks I love you too
helpful as always
Great
interpolation mode is off not active {T} not active brother what to do ???
Hmmm not sure
🤩awesome
Thanks Mohammed
Help me iv been doing this for hours the sky texture. Wont load in
It only works in cycles that may be the issue
:-) Nice one, thx for sharing
Thank you Jayanam!
How do I make a background the colour I want and the text different colour,help please
That's a good one, yes!
Thanks Nadim
Thanks, good stuff
How can you touch each object in edit? I just can gran a vexel or edge or face
What do you mean?
@@DerekElliott I fixed it, I gotta press L to seect the whole mesh, but I cant get it to show the timeline or the keyframe dot now =/
@@sorubro2193 you might have accidentally moved your "view" in the timeline Down away from the dots

Hmm are you looking in rendered view and not just your basic viewport?
BUt , how to place more that one line in the center of a camera?
I'm not sure I understand. Just move the camera or text
How did you add the sound 😕
I made it with my mouth and added it in after effects
Beautiful video, how did you put the sound ? could you explain ? thank a lot
I used after effects but you can use your favorite video editor or even blender VSE
awesome!

thank you. I couldn't made select to edit each text, please help, thank you.
