00:00:00,005 --> 00:00:02,004
- [David] Welcome to the Blender Essential Training

2
00:00:02,004 --> 00:00:05,007
for the 2.9X series of releases.

3
00:00:05,007 --> 00:00:08,004
Blender is an open source, powerful solution

4
00:00:08,004 --> 00:00:10,004
for creating 2D and 3D art.

5
00:00:10,004 --> 00:00:13,005
From modeling, animation, compositing, simulation,

6
00:00:13,005 --> 00:00:17,005
post-production, and even drawing, Blender has it all.

7
00:00:17,005 --> 00:00:19,002
This course is a full update

8
00:00:19,002 --> 00:00:22,006
to our previous Blender 2.83 Essential Training.

9
00:00:22,006 --> 00:00:24,003
This time around, we're going to focus on

10
00:00:24,003 --> 00:00:26,003
producing an animated scene,

11
00:00:26,003 --> 00:00:27,006
and we're going to assume

12
00:00:27,006 --> 00:00:30,001
that you've never used Blender before.

13
00:00:30,001 --> 00:00:31,003
We'll start from the basics,

14
00:00:31,003 --> 00:00:34,000
like how to use the interface and navigate around.

15
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:37,006
By the first hour, you'll have completed a rendered scene.

16
00:00:37,006 --> 00:00:40,002
Then we'll move on to modeling and sculpting,

17
00:00:40,002 --> 00:00:43,008
creating a fish character that we'll later rig and animate.

18
00:00:43,008 --> 00:00:46,003
And then we'll create a 3D bowl,

19
00:00:46,003 --> 00:00:48,008
add some rocks and a volcano that'll be used

20
00:00:48,008 --> 00:00:50,004
as our scene's backdrop.

21
00:00:50,004 --> 00:00:52,009
In texturing, we'll explore the vast array of notes

22
00:00:52,009 --> 00:00:56,005
that Blender has available to us to create shaders,

23
00:00:56,005 --> 00:01:00,001
and we'll even paint our own texture all inside of Blender.

24
00:01:00,001 --> 00:01:02,003
Then we'll animate our fish character

25
00:01:02,003 --> 00:01:03,009
and explore the awesome power

26
00:01:03,009 --> 00:01:06,008
of the two render engines, EEVEE and Cycles,

27
00:01:06,008 --> 00:01:09,000
and mix it all with a little bit of fire

28
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:10,009
and some particle bubbles.

29
00:01:10,009 --> 00:01:13,008
With each lesson you will gain new skills and masteries

30
00:01:13,008 --> 00:01:15,006
that'll let you create professional artwork

31
00:01:15,006 --> 00:01:19,003
for multiple industries, like games, movies, and animation.

32
00:01:19,003 --> 00:01:20,005
All right, I hope you're excited

33
00:01:20,005 --> 00:01:22,007
because I'm excited to teach this course.

34
00:01:22,007 --> 00:01:23,008
Let's get blending.
