Congratulations on such an incredible scene and animation, I can't even imagine the amount of work you must've put into this, but absolutely worth it and very inspiring. For a 20 minute video where you're not going fully in depth, you really managed to introduce some complex subjects and show a lot of cool techniques that can be used in pretty much any project. Thank you so much!
Haha so cool! Edit. What I wanted to add is, how you are being able to see the big picture when making a whole Blender movie, let alone a set of assets! That has to be the most impressive trait of Blender creators like yourself !
first off all, I would like to thank "CGBoost and his mates" for sharing a valuable Information and second off all thank you again for being a great mentor and a teacher it means a lot for a third world country boi like me
You are so great your video really helps a lot for beginners,who lost their motivation 🤩🤩 Your another Channel also contains a lot informative tutorial Specially in my case:those who are not able to pay can gain knowledge through Your channel
Well done. 21:06 - That, was SMART, i have learned something, Thank you. I am curious : how much VRAM did it cost? (Blender reports it, ofc its total value of what's your PC is using, so turn off your other applications and (For windows) ... reduce 800 MB from the total (Due to windows metro graphical interface or aero or whatever and the framebuffers needed) , A guestimate even if inaccurate will be nice. *I do not know if it will work with render farms or not, if you get a summary back or what not.
Thanks! By the way, did you know that we have a Cubic Worlds inspired community challenge running now ? Still more than a week to the deadline so there's still time to join the fun :) : ua-cam.com/video/aQIywXt-jd4/v-deo.html
Wonderful as always! You're my favorite blender teacher. Lots of people know the software, but you also know how to teach. My biggest problem is coming up with something I want to produce. :-)
I liked how you made every polygon in the ground plane separate. I also loved the use of scale in your armature for the legs. I was wondering if that might be a good solution for making my character’s eyelids appear only when he is blinking?
Glad you liked the content. Well, it totally depends on how you modeled the character. If the eyelids are separate objects this might work, but if they are connected with the face, this would get difficult. You can also try to use shape keys.
The shader is explained in-depth in the Cubic Worlds course. It is using some gradient textures with a specific texture mapping in shader nodes. It's not super complicated but not easy to explain it in a short YT comment :)
In scattered object, origin point is going another place so i m finding problem to set the grass object to rotate on plane and also moving the grass not working just trangle move at another place not grass how to fix this.
Hi Rohit, thanks for your comment. Would be great if you could post your question in our community and maybe send the file as well, so we can check it out properly: community.cgboost.com/home ~ Masha
Hi, apart from the practical side of studying the software, you would need to study theory in first place. Things like color theory, lighting, and composition are crucial if you want to produce good art. Also, if you want to work on creatures, you would need to study anatomy as well. This and a lot of practice. ~ Masha
Hello, I must have been late with the comment, but okay. I am Russian-speaking, so I did not fully understand the video. So I apologize in advance for the question, the answer to which may have been in the video. How long did it take to make this animation? Is it a good idea to take ready-made Blender models and learn animation if you want to do animation but not modeling? Or is it necessary to model well?
Hi Нитро, thanks for your questions! I asked Zach how long did it take and je said that it's a bit hard to say precisely since he made the project while working on other things and it took a couple of months. Probably it would a week or so, if he had worked on it in one go. If your main interest is animation, you don't have to necessarily model things by yourself. You can totally use ready models. In a work pipline an animator usually just animates and maybe does the rigging. I hope this answers your questions :) ~ Masha
Sorry for it I'm teenager and i can't afford your course because i don't have bank account 😭😅 but still watching your amezing animations on youtube is great thanks for this ❤️❤️
Hi, thanks for your comment. To learn how to create a similar scene in blender, you can take our Cubic Worlds course: www.cgboost.com/courses/cubic-worlds ~ Masha
Hi, thanks for the comment. We actually already have a couple of videos about rigging and animating cubic worlds elements. You can check them out here: ua-cam.com/video/a9NeQeS4Ekg/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/siNABirUDMQ/v-deo.html ~ Masha
Hi, how did you move all the rigged characters/objects into your main scene? Like do you animate them first then you import/copy paste them after? I'm asking because my character's animation is seriously messed up after copy pasting them into my scene(timeline).
The best way is to use NLA editor, prepare animation ahead in blocks, and then use it. More info on how to make it is in the course on cgboost.com ~Egon
Hi, If I enroll your course, and use what I learned (especially the animated styles) to create a youtube channel for short movies (of course, its not related to the course contents, or tutorial), will that okay to you ?
Hi Lucas, of course, you can use the skills you learn to do whatever you like. ^^ Would be great if you could mention the course, so that you help us to spread the word, but this only if you want, no pressure. ~ Masha
@@lucaspham5238 Great, thanks ^^ And good luck for your channel, would be cool if you then can share it with us :) It's always great to see the personal works our students do with our courses :D You can do it here in our community: community.cgboost.com/home Looking forward to seeing the result!! :D ~ Masha
@@pupuha I randomized the color. So in the Shader Editor I used an "Object Info" node, and plugged the "Random" output into the "Fac" input of a "MixRGB" node. The chose two colors and plug this into the "Base Color" of the "Principled" shader. Now you can put this material onto many different objects and each object will have a different color mix of the two colors.
May I know what are the specs of the PC on which you have worked for this? Issue is, I had crashing problems with doing simple stuffs. My pc has 16 GB DDR 4 RAM. 4GB nvidia GTX 1650 and 512 GB storage.
Hi, thaanks for the question, Zach said that it was a project he made on the side with many breaks, but if he would combine the time it would take a week or so. ~ Masha
Yes, you can find our courses here: www.cgboost.com/courses If you're completely new, start with the free beginner course: www.cgboost.com/courses/free-blender-beginners-course After that, you can go with the Cubic Worlds course: www.cgboost.com/courses/cubic-worlds Or the Blender Launch Pad course: www.cgboost.com/courses/blender-launch-pad
@@sawkawmoosoe9751 Hey Saw, well if you don't have any basics about 3d I would suggest you to start first with the free beginners series. Once done, if your main interest are comlex characters, the sculpting course might be useful to you. If you aim to something more simple, I would recommend you cubic worlds course, where you can learn how to make scenes like the one you can see in the video. ~ Masha
Hi, I'm a beginner and i finished high school this year. I want to buy a new laptop for university, but also for 3d modelling. Can you suggest me something (under 1000$😅)?? Thanks in advance!!
Hi Mattia, unfortunately it's hard to suggest a precise product since there are sales and prices that change every day, and you need to follow them to be up-to-date. Also, if you don't need a laptop you have the option to buy single pieces and assembly a computer yourself, that should be a bit cheaper than getting a ready to go pc. If you need a portable computer, you can follow the tech shops you have in your country and wait till you find an affordable option that might stick to your needs (Amazon also time to time has some good options). What we can suggest you is to try to stick to the recommended requirements you can find here and take the closest option to these specs you can afford: www.blender.org/download/requirements/ ~ Masha
You are doing better and better tutorials, and the videos are smooth and natural. I also do tutorials on my channel, don't hesitate to come and tell me what you think about it so I can improve.
The legs coming out of the car was my favorite part. Makes it feel like a transformer. Awesome work Zach!
Thanks a lot, Jared! 🥰
Using Eevee to composite bloom over your Cycles render was genius!
I agree. I was blown by that!

The animation as a whole, especially the legs entering the water and the scared child. Short but great animation
Just signed up for your cubic worlds course and gotta say I'm loving it. Thanks for the quality work!
I'm sold. You have excellent communication style and very detailed with good pacing.

Dear commotion addon not working, file not found error showing, what to do?
I guess it might depend on the Blender version you are working with. You need to check if the addon is updated to work with it.
I liked how you made every polygon in the ground plane separate. I also loved the use of scale in your armature for the legs. I was wondering if that might be a good solution for making my character’s eyelids appear only when he is blinking?

Hey please reply me its a doubt the hair dynamics or the grass see soo thicker in cycles......any solution pls its a head ache for meeeeeeeee
You're the best
