*Note to viewers: In the most recent Blender version, the shortcut key for the Insert Keyframe Menu has been changed from the I button, to the K button.*
There are a lot of Blender animation tutorials in the RU-vid. They tell you what to do step by step. But this video actually EXPLAINS why you are doing each step. That is why this video is unique and precious.
Yea alls well until the shading mode comes in. I hate when tutorials explain the complex things to beginners like it's a walk in the park it's like y'all lose motivation to simplify
same here, I'm a new blender user and I wanted to do a simple animation just to start learning the basics, a lot of other youtubers tell me what to do but don't explain WHY, I came across this video and I'm so happy he explains things. by far my favorite blender youtuber.
This is the best tutorial on blender i found! All the other tutorials are like “alright so then you add a keyframe then this then that”, but you organize the stuff out! This is the best tutorial by far.
Just coming in 2 years later to thank you for such a well thought out and communicative tutorial, you're a brilliant teacher! I've been going through countless vids in the last few months and never comment, but I wanted to thank you for how incredibly helpful and informative (not to mention just pleasant to watch) this is and I'm really looking forward to going through your channel to find more!
Ryan, I would like to commend you for creating these Blender tutorials. As a beginner I find them enjoyable and informative. You clearly explain what it is you are trying to accomplish. You then also clearly explain how it’s done. What I especially like is that these Blender tutorials are more than just a quick movie recording of the button & menu selections required. If what is being discussed requires several parts that’s what you do. Keep up the excellent work. Regards, George
Thanks a ton man, i recently started learning 3d animation but no one is teaching from basics after searching a lot i finally found this channel and subscribed you ❤
This is one of the best style of tutorials. The beginner starts it, and by the end not only he gets a feeling of success with a quite funny animation, but also a brief overview of the most important concepts. Well done, thank you.
I am so happy i found these videos, as a new blender user (And as someone who has never touched a computer before other than for school) I love these videos there simple, straight to the point and explain things. I will definitely be watching more of these tutorials after i finished this animation
Dang, here I am again. Every time I search RU-vid for a particular topic, your video turns up at the top of the list, and after that there's no need to search any further. Thanks again, Ryan, it seems like you're always here for me.
Man I don’t have enough time to use Blender as I want but it’s such a pleasure to follow your videos and understand the software and how to use it. Amazing job thanks.
I really like that this video immediately jumps into the content without giving way too much background info. This was extremely helpful. I also had no idea how easy basic animation was.
Hey Ryan just wanted to say thanks for doing these tutorials i went from being very lost in blender to learning most of the shortcuts and understanding alot of fundamentals just from watching your videos, I genuinely can't stress enough how good your tutorials are and I'm hoping to contribute to your cause as soon as I'm able to, keep up the great work and thanks again
I know this video is old but let me just this video is really broken down and easy to understand. I'm just beginning to learn how to animate for a project of mine and I understand all the videos I have watched so far and would highly recommend you to anyone your channel. I practice this video everyday for about an hour so I can become proficient. Thank you
Other people have already said it, but I'll say it again - there's tons of blender tutorials out there, but you are a rung above the rest. I'm grateful for all the free content that's out there, and you can usually find how to do something specific if you do enough digging. But most of them don't really capture the essence of actually teaching a skill. With your videos, I can actually visualize how I can apply the content to things that are tangentially related. Being able to explain things in that way is a skill that not many people have. I feel like blender is gonna really blow up over the next few years as it gets more and more features (and people get more and more pissed at autodesk), and I hope you are able to ride that wave and flourish!
Amazing tutorial!! By far the best begginer friendly animation tutorial. I absolutely loved it! One of my recommendations for newer people like myself is to playback at .75x speed.
You knew I was going to learn animation today didn't you? You posted this when I was at work thinking "Yeah I want to do this later this evening". Thanks a bunch! I learned everything I was looking for!
Thank you so muchhhhh! I like that you explain each step clearly and make it easy for beginners to learn animation. Your blender tutorials really are the best!!!!! ♥
I love you, your voice, all your tutorials, this channel. Just so awesome and calming, easy to understand. Don't really have to turn the video speed down in order to understand you.
That's a great tutorial, I just stumbled over it (since I'm subscribed xD) while my 1700 frames animation is rendering. Watching blender tutorials while rendering is like being 200% productive yay Seriously you've done a great job with tha tutorial ;) Greetz from Austria o/
@@RyanKingArt You're welcome! I like your channel and it is very beginner friendly! It must be over a year ago but your mushroom tutorial helped me alot to get into texture painting. Thanks for that! All the best!
Thank you so much for the noob-proof video. It's so clear the way you walk through the process. Step by step without any clutter, right to the core of beginner's essentials.
Ryan, I really thank you for all these tutorials you make for us. I have watched so many tutorials for whatever related to Blender, but the care and the detail you put in your videos? - only one of a kind. You're truly a King :). Thank you once again.
If you can't see the keyframes in the shader timeline (15:58) - I had the same issue. Just make sure to select both the object (cube) and the node in your shader view (magic texture) and your keyframes appear.
@@rubysmith5007 The Problem I had, was me forgetting to highlight the object I wanted to manipulate in the shader view. So you basically just have to click on your cube and then on the node in the shader view. The shader view always shows the nodes of the currently selected object.
I successfully moved the cube that I have been attempting for several months😂. You truly are an excellent teacher, and I am grateful for your guidance❤.
Great video! I really enjoy these videos that tell you so much about one part of Blender. While I love the "how to make this" video format, learning about one particular thing at a time is something I find really helpful.
I gotta say, you're pumping these out like crazy, thanks! I used to use 3dsmax back in the day, and wanting to get something more modern, and your tutorials are quickly getting me back up to speed. Thanks!
thank u so much for making thisss! i was really struggling with blender animation before i watched this, but your clear explanations and good teaching showed me how to finally use blender! :D
You're really great, you always explain everything. Please keep up the good work, I really love it and I would love if you upload more animation tutorials. ❤️
Brilliant tutorial. Just a quick note on the video editing. When selecting the frames, set the folder to display from date modified. When I selected all (A) the first time around it made the video in reverse. But again, brilliant tutorial. I now know a fair bit more than yesterday.
ahh yes, I don't think that was an issue in Blender back when I made this video. Yes, if you don't set the frames to sort by time, or name, then it will play backwards. 😄
I just want to say thankyou :) Your tutorials have really helped me out in a cgi piece our small studio has been commissioned. You deliver information at a digestible speed and don't over complicate stuff that is already complicated enough as a newbie. Keep it up!!!!!
As someone who knew how animation works prior to this, it actually helped because I've never done 3d animation before and I don't know how it works in blender
Omg you're a hero, you've thought me so much. I really like how you explain everything from the buttons you're clicking next and what those buttons are etc. Just amazing.
Hello, I’m new to the 3D world, I want to thank the professional for this cool video, everything is simple and clear. I’ve been studying this super program on my own for three months and I’m more and more surprised by its capabilities! I live in Ukraine)
Just started learning blender animation to proof to my friend that Learning it is easy (I'm kinda racing with him to see who can make an animation with our own Character first. Wish me luck!). This tutorial is very detailed and reliable. And the best part of all, its COMPLETE. From making that cube exist to making it moves, and all the way to Exporting the animation. I really thought Blender is just a 3D object modifier (I didn't know it has a video editing section tbh. Thanks for saving my time form having to put the frame one by one in Premier Pro :P ). Thanks man. I didn't feel that you are not explaining anything AT ALL. Will refer to your video again. You are one of the best and most straightforward tutorial maker I've ever met. Hope you will keep this channel forever (at least until I become successful)
I originally was going to draw animations but I hate working with a drawing pad and can never get the coloring right on paper. I feel like this is more my speed and I appreciate people like you helping out the community.
I always thought I was doing something wrong because my animations don't have a keyframe on every single frame of the timeline like the rigs from exported Sims 4 animations. Turns out, I was technically doing it right, it just takes a lot of practice and time reviewing the animation and timing. Thank you for not only reassuring me, but also teaching me exactly WHAT I'm doing, this video was priceless. :)
Hope you will create more videos like this, it's amazing, and this is a truly step-by-step tutorial, none of the RU-vidrs are better than Ryan in this very spot.
@@RyanKingArt Ryan, can you make a video about how to fill up the Curve objects? I have a logo which is a Mesh object, and I convert it to the curve 2D object, but then it couldn’t fill up.Thanks.
