    Also the scale of your models which is neglected by alot of beginners , Human eye is really good and pointing scale so I'd advice all the beginners to start using some kind of real sized object (Like a human ) in your scene to better help in the giving a realism effect

    • @KaizenTutorials
      @KaizenTutorials  Рік тому +32

      Good one! All the assets in this video automatically have the right scale. So that’s already easy!

    • @PrometheusPhamarus
      @PrometheusPhamarus Рік тому +3

      I don´t see scaling of the models as an issue at all in this case, as mentioned, objects seem to be of correct natural scale, and as for as referencing other objects like a human, which often is a good idea, not really necessary, when so many other nature elements we are used to is presented here, it´s not like I would go out in the real nature and see no human and think it´s not real, the elements of natural size is there in this picture.
      Foremost, i´s the shadow contrast that is way off, most natural photos (not counting in crappy pictures now) do have that darker shadows, less GI within dense vegetation, global illumination is absorbed, not bouncing in those areas in the same manner as those leafs and surfaces more external exposed to either direct sunlight or overcast lighting.
      Then as mentioned, leaf distributiona and I would also say shading of leafs, translucancy could be enhanced.

    • @PrometheusPhamarus
      @PrometheusPhamarus Рік тому +1

      I also think that it could be a haze, fog setting further back that washes out that contrast of dark shadows, shadows are in fact more darker att smaller bushes closer to the camera, but get´s bleached out furhter away, but even if there would be fog, haze, it would look a bit different and not that uniform ..and still it would have deeper shadows, or more obscured by actual fog or mist, not GI illuminated by it.
      Mist fog and illuminate to some degree, but it requires a certain intensity and angle of the sun to have that effect.
      The background seem to be an image, and also mountains based on an image, I think it could use real volume clouds there, seems the background environment and it´s light isn´t consistent with true environments.

    • @PrometheusPhamarus
      @PrometheusPhamarus Рік тому +1

      And more...think about the color of the sun on the vegetation which is a bit warm and yellow greenish saturated, while the background and color of the sky do not pick that up, of course not the greenish, but the sky and slight cloud layer should have a different color than it currently has.. it´s inconsistent with natural lighting..that tells you that something is off natural.
      So I think it´s a bit of a shame here that you didn´t cover one of the most important aspects, lighting, environment light and sky backdrop that effects the whole scene.

    • @KaizenTutorials
      @KaizenTutorials  Рік тому

      It is really important for some shots yes. It's equally important to not have it in other shots. It depends on what you're trying to get. In the end mimicing a real camera is the way to go. So using DOF and setting a proper focal point are the most important things to do!

    0:33 The first thing I did with this was to copy and color correct it. One common mistake I see with these is that the scene is too uniformly one color and the lighting is too uniform- not enough dark shadow and too much blue. The lack of contrast is always a givaway.

    • @KaizenTutorials

    Im still very new to Blender but everytime I watch a video on Geometry nodes people say its better on your computer or less intensive in general but when I add some trees or grass it runs just like if I used the Hair particles, I feel like I'm doing something wrong but I followed several tutorials step by step copying their exact Geometry node setup and I cant hardly make it past adding trees or it gets too laggy. My PC isn't the greatest but its also not awful (Ryzen 5 5600x and RX 6700xt). Im making sure to only add things that effects the outcome of the image so I don't have a lot of unecesarry trees. Other than this issue Im loving Blender, I wanted to get into it for years but I was always scared of how complicated it looks. I still have a long way to go but Im learning as a go, I really shouldn't have put off learning for so long.

    • @KaizenTutorials
      @KaizenTutorials  Рік тому

      Its always a battle between what your PC can handle and what you want to add. As in the video GScatter is pretty optimized and has additional tools for optimization. Nonetheless, even using instances in geonodes vs particles, using trees which consist of 1,5million polys each will always be rough. Try finding assets with proper LOD’s and implement lod systems to make sure only assets in the front actually use high poly and further back low poly versions.

    Can you briefly explain the difference between G Satter and GEO Scatter, in terms of performance and mode of operation? As far as I could understand, G Scatter works on the principle of geometry nodes, while GEO Scatter uses a particle system. I use GEO Scatter; honestly, it's not as simple as it seems. A lot of optimization is needed in order not to overload the scene. I wonder if G Satter is different?

    • @KaizenTutorials
      @KaizenTutorials  Рік тому +2

      Yeah so GScatter will still require optimization, but the main difference is that since its using GeoNodes it’s only instancing the assets. These instances are lighter on your PC than particles. Plus Gscatter offers aan easy camera culling tool that further optimizes it. Also it can use the distribution masks to create scatter realism and further optimization. I haven’t user geoscatter myself but if it uses particles its going to be unoptimized compared to GScatter. GScatter is also really easy to use.
      Hope that helps!

    • @KaizenTutorials
      @KaizenTutorials  Рік тому

      It can be a bit heavy. Try using proxies in the viewport, you can do this by clicking on the circular icon in the GSCatter addon outliner. Also you can lower the viewport count, so it shows less objects, even though they'll appear in the final render! Good luck!

    This video is very helpful to know, a lot of peoples best advice for nearly every aspect of blender is reference lol. I was thinking of taking the cg boost environment course after I take a few more courses myself on stuff if that would help a lot, and then getting either true terrain or terrain mixer and the botaniq addon. Would this be a good approach?
    I’d like to know what I’m doing to make great environments and indoor places but I don’t want to spend forever on them as I’d like more of my focus to be on animating one day.

      It is entirely reactive. All inputs update per frame, you just have to supply your character/vehicle or any other object as a target object.
      In Gscatter, you can for example use a Proximity Effect on the Rotation Tab, with your character as target.
      Then plants, will turn away naturally when your character moves through grass, or bushes.
