(I Didn't knew Midge Sinnaeve before...... And I have never Tried Loop before.... But Because of Midge.... I might have Fallen in love with LOOP Animations like he does 😄)
QUES- How would you Make Loops of Simulations? (EG:- WaterFalls) I mean umm, maybe being able to to such things by the help of Everything Nodes?
* @quarkINatom * You need to do some tricks. For example if you have water simulation: make a jar , second one upside down. During simulation change gravity influence *-1. Than again gravity *-1. So you can get a water this way flowing up and back down. You will probably need to tweak viscosity eaither with keyframes to dump it.
@Pablo thank you for the everyday useful entertainment at the end of my workday, keep it up! And inviting artists to ask about their workflows and tips & tricks is a very clever idea to get some good content for the channel especially if they are willing to share and give away that knowledge for free!
@Midge: which are your favorite techniques to hide the loop for a loopable animations? (that the audience takes a while to recognize the loop) Secondly: what makes motion graphic 'great' in your view?
You are awesome Pablo & Midge! <3
Midge, How hot are you for the fracture modifier?
* @rbx775 * I hope one day we have something like this rayfirestudios.com/ I had it in max and would love to use the Blender prowess on this.
* @kurt * Yeah, That's BULLET PHYSICS+MORE.... I would Love that.... (I think everybody would)
Awesome Midge & Pablo ! Enjoyed the show!
Thank you for inspiration :) youtu.be/9BwSiZnYtMg
Hi Pablo, greetings from Bangladesh. I wanna do cool motion graphics in blender, I tried some too. If there was some default particle in mantaflow like foam or bubbles, that would be nice to create realistic waterfalls! Is there any suggestions to create realistic bubbles or foams??
hi guys, thanks for these nice streams pablo ! congrats for great work midge !
Not a question per say, i bet you use fcurve and fcurve modifiers a lot through your loop creation process, i always struggled with them and the copy/paste behavior, so i made a little free addon for it which could be interesting for you !
It is called fcurve helper and helps with copy modifiers to multiple fcurves and check on them !
Here is a link to a quick video to see it in action ! Sorry for self promotion guys but i thought it could be interesting for some :)
Cheers from france and keep up the good work !
Hey!
Leave your LOOPS/Motion Graphics questions to Midge!
Save the rest for the developers Q&A tomorrow Friday
* @Pablo Vazquez * I struggled to format the title to insert the link to the youtube video (md didn't work).. sorry!
Here is the video:
* @Christian Clavet * the problem is that I wasn't able to add a link in the title of the post not in the body!
* @Mille Porte * Simply Copy Pasting The Link to the URL BOX before adding "Title" Should Do fine.... Then the LINK Title will be auto Created, Then you can Edit the Title...
Umm...Don't Fully Delete the Title, if you do edit that
* @Pablo Vazquez * Hi Midge ! Great stream ! If you find some time you could show the awesome stuff you created for the DAC -ANT conference - it's a shame that these shots should go to waste... they need exposure (what better than Blender Today ! :))
Hi Pablo, and dear guests!
I dare to assume that we do all use 3D Cursor in Blender. It's in our blood.
I spent may days and nights playing with 'Child of' constraint. And it is fantastic! Until you need to switch more than two parents during the animation...
Cheers! Stay safe!
* @damian winnichenko * An option sould be added to costraint 3DCursor on the grid. I think 3DCursor could do much more, it could be used in many creative ways, it is understimated.
* @damian winnichenko * this cursor thing is driving me mad not having control over its position or rotation even. It would be nice if i could use it like working pivot in max.
*** Modifier and Geometry
Hi Pablo, I'm very fascinated from Mantissa Art he really deserves a round of applause and thank you for calling him, I hope to see more tutorials from him.
I would ask a question: the output geometry of a modifier wil be accesible in the future?
Second one (last time the answer was not clear): the modifiers will be driven out by Everything Nodes framework (or at least will they be redundant)?
Displacement: modifier or shader, what Mantissa do you prefer?
Will "edge groups" ever be added?
Hi Pablo , as an Animator coming from Maya I have one & only small favour to ask. Can whoever is working on the 3D Transform Manipulators add more improvements to them so they're powerful when animating with more customization. I made a thread about it a while ago but seems Blender Developers don't come around. blenderartists.org/t/blenders-3d-manipulators-for-animators/1199990/6 ,Most of Animators including me prefer to use them instead of the shortcuts and it's hard to explain it in words how they work and feel in Maya . it will be greatly appreciated thanks.
How do you draw on a mesh with grease pencil??
* @chabot.paul * There are Texture Brushes.... To draw on 3D Objects.... Grease Pencil Kinda Draws on 2D Planes from different angles..... But If you save the Photo of what you have drawn with GPencil, Then you can the Use that Image as a Texture for any Kind of 3D Object with the Shading Nodes....
hey pablo :) greetings from greece. Will blender give some love at architecture. I rl think that can be better at architecture. with better measurement methods, see plans and architecture draws. and a lot other staff
any free course of blender ?
* @moresagar898 * Maybe you would want to Check BlenderGuru's Beginner and Intermediate Series on Youtube.....
Except for BlenderGuru, There is Ian Hubert on VFX Side, Default Cube, Ducky 3D, CGMatter, Gleb Alexandrob...... Julien Kaspar
(There is also a Official Tutorial Series from Blender)
I think Youtube is the Best Place for Blender
It's possible to add any feature to control several renders using multiple cameras? Right now I'm using a "hack" where I put each camera in a keyframe and render an animation. But in this way, I can't put every render in a slot to do the post-processing for each render on blender. I know the Gleb's addon can help on that task, but it's far from ideal. The dream is a button called "render all cameras" that can render all cameras and put each one in a different slot.
Hi Pablo! Hope you are safe and fine. It's possible to add an option to slightly shift the position and rotation using the array modifier? I want to propose it as a new feature to the array modifier, but I don't know where to go to propose it.
