pwnisher does 3d community challenges every now and then, you can enter them or just use the theme as inspiration. The one this month is good for doing character animation.
I recommend Alessandro Camporota, he doesn't use Blender, but what he explains is true for animation regardless of the software. He explains poses, keyframes, lines of motion, anticipation, holding, squash-and-stretch, dynamic motion, etc. Pierrick Picaut is another great channel which is Blender based. He has a strong focus on rigging, but also covers character animation. There's also a channel, the name of which escapes me, he was an animator at Disney and he demonstrates hand-drawn animation techniques which can also be relevant to 3-D.
I like the Animation & Rigging course from Grant Abbitt. I think that is a good one for absolute beginners of animation that are already familiar with the Blender interface and if you also want to learn something about rigging a human figure. I haven't finished the course yet (so far I completed 4 out of 7 chapters), but I liked it so far. I do think that the course doesn't go too deep into the topic, but that makes it also easier to finish it and suitable as a "starter".
Well... :-) In the end you said "took about 1 hour", while in the header you claim that anyone can create this in 10 minutes. Still... An experienced animator could use reference material like you did and SEE the correct poses. Many of my students just won't see it and the whole animation would look floaty, the poses would look weird and off. It takes years of practice to see something and re-create the pose with your digital character. Even more: Chose the best key pose and not just stupidly copy every 5 frames of the material. Leave alone the fact that using a 3D software intuitively without thinking where to click takes years again 🙂 So, animation beginners, don't get frustrated if you won't animate this exercise in 10 minutes! Start with something really easy and learn step by step!
As I seen "Animation" in CG Geek video title, I came to comment "you suck at animation" 🤪 as running joke on his animation skill.. But this was really amazing.. Great job man.
as someone who does parkour and tricks like that IRL, I feel like you didn't do it justice. in this case, it'd be more appropriate to use FK for the arms and a FK/IK switch for the legs, for when the legs are in the air, since the IK interpolations create straight lines in the space, which is not how joints move during such a stunt. Also, the rotation on the character is fairly linear, whereas it should kind of stagnate a bit and is accelerate by the legs coming over, giving it the momentum - the kick is kind of swallowed by the IKs as well (or it could be the pose you chose) Overall, it's not a bad video, and very informative to beginners, but that kick could have looked a lot more punchy. either way, I love your content :)
I mean... I don't want to be rude, but this animation is far from "awesome". I guess for 10 minutes work it's good enough, but It lacks timing, weight, and a lot of stuff to actually make it a good character animation. I really like the content this channel provides, but maybe consult with an actual character animator for this stuff?
it looks pretty bad. you also shouldve used fk and fix those completely straight "arcs", and constant interpolation when blocking . you also never went into breakdowns, moving holds (which have their own keyframe types in blender) or the proper iterative-esque process and blender's breakdown tool (shift e, alt e, etc). it looks floaty because you made the computer do the inbetweening, you went straight from king frames to computer inbetweens. i get its a quick flashy UA-cam beginner tutorial but the fundamentals are something that you shouldn't over simplify,and not to be rude but you don't seem qualified to teach this
@@ratastic Honestly, you don't have to be a joy killer. There are better ways to make corrections other than this. You should learn how to be more polite and appreciative. Pride comes before a fall
Where is a good starting place for someone to learn from scratch? I actually decided to start to try Blender because of his video, but I am a complete newbie, and have no clue where to start. Any guidance would be graciously received. I’m trying to animate medical mnemonics that would help teach health professionals, I was going to try AI, but it looks awful compared to this style of animation (IMO). I’d love to know where else to get great teaching from.
ua-cam.com/video/P1IcaBn3ej0/v-deo.htmlsi=wlLedmZJeab9DXMM Is there any way we can use this technique in Blender? If it is possible, it will help the blender community..
@@3Dverse_VnV I know about that, i use DaVinci for color grading. It's a very long process so i wanted to know how if we can achieve it in Blender itself using a color management or something else but let it be.
@@CGToonStudio Yes you actually can, blender have the tab dedicated to compositing using nodes like davinci and nuke...but you know first you have to learn the compositing technique in blender cuz there's no specific tutorial on the topic that you brought...so yeah
thanks for the simple tutorial. I want to start with animations but I dont know where to start but this makes it much easier

I don't have pc to animate in blender still i watch your all videos 😂
Yo, it's you!
There's no need to animate my donut... 😊
What if you want to animate it absolutely demolishing that griddy
Mine smiles, so it does
@@IronKore I want mine to smile too, at this moment mine doesn't make me smile either... 🤭
Amazing! I had no idea that in just ten minutes, you could produce such beautiful 3D animation. This is revolutionary.
Thanks✨
Thats gona help me with my game project

Hei! Steve is back!🎉
Huhh!! welcome back Steve🎉😂
Awesome!!
You are back! Thanks CG Geek! Always the best )
Lets go new vid!!!

This video is quite awesome
Didn't quite expect to see you here lmao
this guy is the bomb
Perfect video to start my new semester
I wish I had this video when I was studying 3D at school 😅
You inspired me ❤
Yes you are back!
so cool
Here's a top tip. Play the video an x2 speed, and then you can learn to animate in 5 minutes 😅
“Wait why are you showing animation? Don’t you like suck at animation”
Nice 👌
From Pakistan bro love you 😘🧡👑
Please create a simple video on how to obtain a parallax occlusion mapping texture for mixing textures..
No default cube. -100/10.
(And yes, I copied this from Blender Guru's comment).
cool brother

I must admit it is a strange animation😅
Are you going to overlook the fact that other people are motivated just by looking at his style of animation?
@@davidmensah23 they would be more "motivated" if they were given good actionable information

Am I able to make this type of content on my iPhone using free software?
Looks like Tekken 8 Raven's f,f,f+3
what do you selcet what button on your leyboard
how can two of my youtuber pop into one video and they are absolutly not related (I'm learning tricking and blender)
Can I make my own characters?
There's no onion skin? 😮
Bro how did you do the film theme character with background?
Kewl
coooooooookl
My GTX 1070 TI would take forever to render that thing. 🙄
👍👍
Anyone want to learn 3d animation
Me
why don't just open the video screen behind your character and rotoscope on top of it? no need to thank me.
Taylor Robert Anderson David Thomas Elizabeth
30 minuets ago!!
Taylor Charles Robinson Jennifer Johnson Patricia
the animation looks too floaty
EXCUSE ME CAN ANYONE HERE SUGGEST ME A 3D MODELING PROGRAM I KINDA AM TRYING TO FIND OUT THE BEST ONE
Hernandez John Hall Mary Jones Helen
I dont even know how to important a blend file, so its kinda useless this video LOL
You don't have to import it, just open it after downloading :) -but if you do need to import, its the Append option!
First
damn you are getting old its been so long huh

You can actually do that after rendering in Post processing.
@@kerhabplays okay thank you very much.
its called compositing. Either use blender's in-built compositor or use another software like photoshop (paid) or davinci resolve(free)
