    Yes, you did just get RickRolled in the most savage way. Sorry about that.

    First 15 seconds already had me hooked. I was just lamenting to a friend about how little substantive content there is on UA-cam nowadays regarding 3d art. Its just quick tutorials and people repeating one another for views. Nothing that will actually help an artist in the long run. Thank you for this

    Dude! You're right. For how long I've been trying to learn Blender on my own, I've never stumbled on a fundamentals course or discussion. Hopefully you continue this series!

    I'm a hobby photographer and all you said is valid for photography since light is universal. I also recommend anyone who wants to improve their lighting skills to go out and try to figure out where light come from and where it goes. Example: when sitting in a cafe, you can watch the light coming through the window. Follow the light when it hits the wall where it is reflected. The light gets another color and intensity depending on the material of the wall. When you walk through the city, watch the light under a bridge or between tall buildings with reflective facade. There is direct light with hard shadows and diffuse light with soft shadows. I use all these lights for portrait shots. Sometimes ust by moving your model 2 meter you can have a different light situation. After a while you can "read" the light.
    Btw. I used Blender to make a presentation about the "inversed square law" for the members of my photo club.

    Your 3D artistry is truly inspiring! As an old-school graphic designer venturing into the world of Blender, your work is not only breathtaking but also a guiding light on my journey. Your creations ignite my passion for learning, especially as I embark on the path of turning my packaging designs into 3D models. Thank you for being such a source of inspiration!

    How to do GOBOs in EEVEE (old version, hopefully EEVEE next will have light node support):
    1. Create a plane
    2. Plug your GOBO into the principled shader's alpha port
    3. In the settings tab of the shader, enable one of the alpha options for shadows
    4. If your GOBO is visible in the shot, enable backface culling in the settings and flip the normals so that the culled side is facing the camera. That way it is invisible while still casting shadows.

      Or in "Object Properties" panel in "Visibility/Ray Visibility" unchek "Camera"(Object visibility to camera rays)

    • @relvean5626

      @@Igoreshkin The ray settings only work in cycles. EEVEE (rather annoyingly) doesn't have them, the settings end with "set holdout" if you have eevee selected as the render engine.

    Just got the Interior course about a week ago. Working my way through it and finding all kinds of nuggets of information that I hope to apply in my projects, past, present and future. BTW, that has to be one of the longest setups for a Rick Roll in history, when you did that video about that tunnel a while back. Lol

    • @DECODEDVFX
      @DECODEDVFX  9 місяців тому

      I'm really glad you are enjoying it!
      If you could leave a rating for the course when you have finished watching, I would really appreciate that. I'm surprising you noticed that I've used this tunnel scan before. I've had this series planned for a long time. :)

    Great video. Can the three point lighting setup be used for interior spaces also? I have been getting into 3D art and struggle to know how to light a night interior scene without it becoming too dark or too bright. Thanks and hope to hear back from you :)

    Ya i've see a lot of such videos and im able to apply it in a single frame , but when i try to use it in animated shot then the rim light the fill light are not affected further more cause the character is animated and lights create the same effect on other frames compared to the frame on which we worked adding lights and feel. i could parent them but stil it wont give same result. could you make a video on character lighting who is animated and not still object
