I opened RUclips to take a break from animating the squirrel in your amazing course and the first thing I see recommended is your video on animation :D
Editable motion path would be sweet! Blender is missing a lot of great animation tools I still miss from Maya, but the software has evolved tremendously since I switched just 4 years ago so the sky is the limit!
Great video! I'm now learning to animate in Blender, coming from Autodesk Maya, not to replace but to be able to learn that skill. The edible motion arc tracker is a must, and for me also the ability to have non weighted tangents in the graph editor.
Absolutely agree! The motion path tool in Blender feels so janky... I don't think it can really be a credible professional animation tool until it has real-time editable motion paths in the viewport.
@@Fasty I agree that the motion path tool is super janky, but, I gotta say, I was pretty amused by the idea that Blender isn't yet a "credible animation tool"... 🤣
Oh, finally someone covers the motion path tool. Without knowing the way your object (or part of it) takes and the duration it takes for it to reach , you are working on blind. (Also, make sure everything organic moves in an arc)
Incredible! I didn't really understand the power of this tool as I didn't really take the time to understand it. Thanks for this thorough explanation of how to use the Motion Path tool. I'll definitely incorporate it into my workflow now. I just want to add, your approach to explaining the "why" for each step is welcomed for Blender tutorials.
I've been following you for years and I it seems sometime in the middle of this year I will have like 2 months of free time and I cant just wait to get my hands on your alive animation curse. Your animation skills are insane!
I came from 2D animation and i always struggled with 3D until i found Motion pathing , its like Onion skin for 3D, you need it . BUT I really wish Motion paths could be toggled to show the orientation of the bone on that frame, that would be a great help too
HOW HAVE I NEVER HEARD OF THIS BEFORE?! this is amazing!!! Being able to someday edit the path itself built into blender would be amazing. For now i goes guess drawing the arc you want with the grease pencil and then using it as a guide to get the curve on line with it will have to do... Would buy that addon if i wasn't broke at the moment😅
I LOVE BLENDER. Been using it for 3-4 years. I don't know why, but the animation part of it is such a daunting task, and often scares me away. Even though I have a firm understanding of keyframe animation (AE) and have watched lot of rigging tutorials. - I still shy away from this.
I actually really like the motion trails 3D addon you brought up at the end, I've been using it for a few weeks and its pretty nice. Though I'd much prefer if Blender had a built-in feature for it.
Je trouve que votre message içi est bien communiqué, et facile a suivre et a comprendre pour moi comme anglophone. Merci bien pour vos vidéos - il faut maintenant que je cherche les autres pour que je gagne plus d'informations aussi util ! Thank you!
Excellent!!! Thank you for sharing. Your instruction video is about the best illustrative lesson I've seen. I like the way you breath life into the animation aspect as others do on the modeling side.
Thanks for another great tips video Pierrick. Learning to make the most productive use of the motion path tool was one of the really valuable things I got out of your Alive! course.
Pierrick, I just bought your alive course and absolutely loved it, but recenlty i discovered new program for animation called Cascadeur, whats your thoughts on this program? Will it leave big impact on animation inudstry? Tbh im a little concerned that my new achioved skills will go on waste, but whats mine thats mine tho
The blender devs are working on a system that is visual like motion paths but allows you to directly change the shape of it and the timing. All on that curve itself in viewport . Can't wait. That will be soo revolutionary and massive time saver.
Well there's one edge case for video games where you care about only one angles. Sidescrolling games. I'm actually glad more games are taking advantage of this (the latest to date being Mario Wonder but a few have done it before like Guilty Gear Xrd/Strive) because it shows the power of traditional 2D animation for 3D. It can't be applied to all games sure, but I think this will quickly become a cornerstone to making good looking sidescrolling 3D animations !
Thank you Pierrick for another great video! Your channel has helped me a lot to overcome difficult problems in animation and rigging. Would you consider for the future doing a bird rig with foldable wings? Currentlly is very difficult to find a good tutorial on how to rig a bird in Blender. Again thank you for your videos.
i knew that already but i gotta say the editing of this video is very good, with the marked areas its very easy to follow what you say. keep up the good work, awesome tutorials!
Question...I'm thinking to do your course...I want to do great animations for my character for a game...question...do game engines use BONES only? Noob question I know. I just see your bones turn into an armature and alot of blender rigs like rigify turn into a armature or whatever it turns the bones into or use for animations with the controls....do you just need bones for a game engine?
Insane quality vidéo man !! Thx you so much !! Sub and bell on 🎉 The clarity and simplicity and tempo of this video is really impressive, cant wait to check more of your content !
@@PierrickPicaut_P2DESIGN are you french ? I am ! I'm watching your Alive video presentation and not sure since your english is really good but I think I'm hearing some french accent may be ? Your name too. I'm thinking seriously about making Blender my friend and you are giving me hope and fuel. A really nice discovery ! You are really really talented man. A delight to see that level of talent.
Hi!, Im interesting to buy the Alive course but I have some a questions, can I follow the course with a characther that use riggify or is better use the characther provide by Pierrick?
Been using this recently and it's a really handy tool, but the one downside is that it starts becoming very laggy after using it for a while. Even if you reduce the frame length to the bare minimum it'll still make Blender run very slow if you used motion paths elsewhere. And the only solution i could find is just starting a brand new blend file. Is there some sort of motion path cache that we should be clearing?
@@PierrickPicaut_P2DESIGN The thing is that it works fine when I first start animating, it strangely only starts slowing down after a set period of time for each project file. Real shame since it actually helps keep track of curves in the viewport.
When the wind is slow when the fire is hot the vulture waits to see what rots oh how pretty all the scenery this is nature’s sacrifice. Sundowner ost Red sun.
Hello, I want to bring my animation skills to the next level and I am considering your courses. Should I start with the rigging course or can I do the animation course first and later at some point do the rigging course?
You take the courses in the order you want. They are complementary but you don't need one to follow the other. If animation is your thing, then take the animation course :)
Why doesn't this work in real time? Once you change the animation, motion path doesn't change and you need to update it. In many programs, as soon as you change the animation, your motion path changes automatically. Blender not good here
still waiting for the day when motion paths update automatically like in Cascadeur. having to manually update them every time you change a keyframe is annoying

I'm everywhere!
Did you u just said youtube mightve been spying on you?
No peace for the wickeed 😂😅
THIS was the feature that I really enjoyed seeing in Source Filmmaker, and REALLY wanted something similar in Blender. Thanks a lot for this!
That tackle animation within the first 3 seconds blew my mind. Your skills are insane, which makes sense because you're a professional.
Editable motion path would be sweet! Blender is missing a lot of great animation tools I still miss from Maya, but the software has evolved tremendously since I switched just 4 years ago so the sky is the limit!
Nobody's gonna talk how good the animations look?

Saddest part of Pierrick's videos is when I hear "This is the end of this video..." Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us!
But I’ll be back

Thank you. I hate tutorials where you just have to follow like a monkey. “Click here, do that…” you don’t learn anything that way
@@PierrickPicaut_P2DESIGN I agree.
Based intermediate lesson, I didnt understand anything but im a newbie.
Fantastic blender animation teacher found! I'll be learning a lot from you sir!
Thank you. I'm working my way through Alive! (and highly recommended) but it's nice to also see short videos like this that cover specific tools.

Very interesting, as always. This is a feature that really does not get mentioned in most tutorial videos.
Excellent!!! Thank you for sharing. Your instruction video is about the best illustrative lesson I've seen. I like the way you breath life into the animation aspect as others do on the modeling side.
Thanks for your words
I use motion paths time to time, but discovered some useful tips anyway.
Brilliant as always!
Thanks for another great tips video Pierrick. Learning to make the most productive use of the motion path tool was one of the really valuable things I got out of your Alive! course.
After Effects has that interactive motion path and it's so helpful. Can't wait until it's in Blender.

Really?!? I’m dying for that. Where did you see it mentioned please?
@@RainSoxx This blender conference was dedicated fully to that, ruclips.net/video/msOjFC03JRY/видео.html
The motion path is really a powerful tool! and i love that you;re stressing on it! A great video!😇
Thanks. i think you always make the best videos about animation on blender!
it needs a "auto update motion paths" section. cos it doesnt update when i adjust on graph editor. its bad to click on update button on every change.
You are one of my mentors ♥️ such an inspirational mentor to follow! I feel lucky to get paid and free content from you master!

thankyou amazing info and teacher of animation but i dont expert but this material help me for my classroom
Looks like you convinced me to replace Graph Editor with Motion Path as the primary tool )))
I was looking how to enable motion paths, thanks!!!

Another thing i really love about the channel is those lovely thumbnail very attractive
Thank you
I watched your old live stream recording it's help me lot
One of the best content creators in terms of Animations in Blender! Great stuff!
Thanks
That's amazing, thank you so much Pierrick Picaut
doing those smooth animations on 30 fps is crazy
I am an architect but fascinated to know how animation works from you 😂😂
i knew that already but i gotta say the editing of this video is very good, with the marked areas its very easy to follow what you say. keep up the good work, awesome tutorials!
Thank you, very much appreciated
Great tip! Thanks! , the background music was a bit distracting though
Your tutorial is really great, I like your tutorial!
motiontrail3d it is awesome addon, sometimes blender motion trail became too slow, but with addon works perfectly!
You're the Best Pierrick!! This is awesome c':
Thanks

Very helpful video.....very cool.
This is such a great tool to have in Blender. :)
Happy this video got so many views. U deserved this so many videos before!

Merci pour ces gentils mots!
motion paths are sick.
The graph editor is a bit intimidating.
I'm still wondering what's the IK/FK tool he uses to move the bones around sometimes, and switching between them. It looked like a plugin.
You are the best mate fire fire fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥 ❤ love u
Amazing!
Thanks :)
I like the motion path but are you saying we can edit the motion path ? If so i am interested in a course from you .
I got overwhelmed

Been using this recently and it's a really handy tool, but the one downside is that it starts becoming very laggy after using it for a while.

And the only solution i could find is just starting a brand new blend file. Is there some sort of motion path cache that we should be clearing?
Yes, performances are too be improved.
I use it like ALL the time but noticed it was slower with blender 3.x
@@PierrickPicaut_P2DESIGN The thing is that it works fine when I first start animating, it strangely only starts slowing down after a set period of time for each project file. Real shame since it actually helps keep track of curves in the viewport.
Is there the plugin that would do the same but will update paths in realtime
Please... is there any way to pose a bone from the tip?
Can you please tell the name of the background song you used for 5:34 to 8:00
Blender animation vault! 😊
Its gonna be a great day when the motion path will be handled like a bezier ... even faster smoooooother arcs!
AWESOME
Thanks.
in my timeline if i create new keyframes they always overwrite earlier ones in the time line
Once you master this tool you will feel invincible. 🔪🦍🔪

Quick question what do you think about the AnimationLayers Addon
Never used it
*It is possible to get a job as 3D Animator using Blender and how? most studios requirement is Maya*
Any clue how about render eevee with animation ?
Sick!

@@PierrickPicaut_P2DESIGN Nice! Any chance of getting a discount or are there any periods where the course price is reduced?
Would you do a video on how to achieve the spider verse effect?
Nice video. But you never said how to do that duplication trick.
what about face animation i found that really hard to find
can i rigged and export model in gltf format in blender...???
Why doesn't this work in real time?
Once you change the animation, motion path doesn't change and you need to update it.
In many programs, as soon as you change the animation, your motion path changes automatically.
Blender not good here
.
I still have not used Blender. I am still using Maya for work.
How can i make a paddle move in my characters hands ?
wow....thanks
your biggest fan :) comments first!
still waiting for the day when motion paths update automatically like in Cascadeur. having to manually update them every time you change a keyframe is annoying
