I can't even begin to imagine how much I'd struggle to finish a whole shortfilm. Honestly, props to you.
Thanks!
Thanks! I’ve been watching your content for a year while putzing with a blender project I never finished. You’re right about perfection!
5:34 - Team Potato PC here! My extra advice on that one would be to look at old CG films (Toy Story, Shrek, etc). They hold up super well and they're great inspiration on how to get a cinematic look with very simple pre-raytraced images. My thinking is that if they could produce awesome images back then, then I can sure give it a go with my 7 year old PC using Eevee.
Thanks for the tips!
3:57 life hack for my fellow procrastinators for whom the important tasks seem daunting and insurmountable:
Split the big tasks into smaller, manageable tasks. That way you can get important stuff done while still getting that little checkbox dopamine rush 👍
I’m making my short film after learning Blender for a year, big thanks to your tutorials!
All fantastic advice! Over the years, I’ve also found that becoming a better artist has had less to do with my technical or artistic skill and more with how I approach creative projects. It’s about the creative process, avoiding perfectionism, and staying true to the emotions behind what I’m creating. The closer my inspirations and workflow stay to the core emotions that drive me and the experiences I want to convey through my art, the more likely I am to finish.
I just want to thank you for your usual advice, this is the video I was needing to continue. Sometimes we lose our way and its difficult for us to stay on the path, but thanks to people like you we can continue dreaming. Greetings from Argentina! 🇦🇷
You actually have something in common with me! I wanted to make games but failed at that. I wanted to animate. I got into it. Then I failed. I found Blender, or blender found me. But it looked to complicated for my taste. Over time I stuck with animating and kinda wanted to make a game still and had so many ideas and even a story! But I didn’t know how to start. Years go by and now I’m doing 3D animation. Note I started like 4 or 5days ago and I’m posting progress videos. I’m actually making a Sonic animation! But i so far am really into blender! Who knows I might even make a game. 🤷🏻
I'm at a creative block rn, this video has helped me, its like a custome made video for me. Thank you!!
Glad I could help!
Please make a tutorial on how to stop watching tutorials 😂😂😂
Thats kinda what this video is lol
@@howedaddy6122 I just saw the title and made the comment first, just a joke man 😂🤣
😂
My main issue is learning new tricks, deciding I can implement that trick in my projects, and so I keep going back and revising and never getting to the end
2:52 *hits harder than the day that i started learning blender*
I really hope you could get more subscribers that this channel deserves ❤❤❤
Man, when you brought up the impostor syndrom stuff up, I teared up. I've dealt with this since forever and I probably have dysthymia (getting checked on it). It's hard getting things done even tho I have the capability to learn and understand what I want to actually do. A few months ago, I swore to myself that I was going to make my own game, even tho it's probably going to take me like, around 5 years or so to have a stable prototype, and I'm aware of that. It's just hard setting little goals for me in between, but this is what I need to do. Little steps, moving closer to my dream. Thanks for making this video, and thanks for your channel. I'm glad I found out about you, I love your work.
Geez I really needed this right now. I'll be back here in a year to get another motivational confidence boost.
Thank-you so much I am about to release my blender film I learnt a lot from my video good luck on any future projects
Don't worry, I will keep watching your tutorials 😂
Thanks from the bottom of my heart
These are actually excellent tips. Thank you.
Excuse my language!!! but your a fucken hero and a legend you aspire me and many others out there to not stop and keep trying no matter what , thank you.
I have such high aspirations and I always get disheartened when I can’t get there. I’m my own worst critic. There’s some good tips in here, but my takeaway is this: if you want to design and build a Ferrari, start off by building a peddle-kart. When you’ve done that, try a cart with a lawn mower engine. Then a cart with suspension… don’t start by stitching the leather gear-shift cover. Yes that was all metaphors! 😂😂
Great job!!!! Hope to see more. Have a nice one... Major procrastinator out...
Thanks!
Thanks for these tips. Inspiring and motivational 👍 Let’s eventually Blend this 😺!
This is all really helpful advice, thankyou sir!
Thank you !
this is the most helpful video ive found on the internet .. thank you
It’s crazy to see this video right now. I’m a video editor that in 2020 went hard in blender and fell in love, tho at this moment I’m unable to finish any of the projects I’ve started. Like all 10,000 of them. Just yesterday I actually rendered out a scene for the first time in yearssss.
That used to be me 😀
Thanks for this bro, I watched 100% of the video !
I struggle with making lists and planning out projects, is there something you recommend that can help this or should I just start now and get perfect later?
Thank you for making this!
Thank you
team last 95%. Good tips, nothing I haven't heard before but, always a great reminder.
Oh crap, it's the King of Town! Hide your whats it!
If I just making something for myself I’m team 5%, if I’m forced to push through it has to be done at 95%😢
you look tired, man
i hope you're okay and that you're getting enough rest 💪
I needed this, thank you!!
You're so welcome!
anyone here ADHD?
Thanks for these Coole Amazing Motivation Tips!!! Thanks!!! 👍😁
that was awesome!
I enjoy have more then one project going at a time, because it helps me never get creative block. But that's just me.
That's an important topic, not only for animators but for creators in general. I'm the 95% type, I always think the project is never good enough, that I need to improve something, but this never ends and I end up leaving the project.
I thought i was the 95% type, but I’m actually a new type. I get to 55% then I start changing stuff and go backwards and forwards, never really getting past 55% 😂😂😂😂
Great video!
What app are you using for planning?
Milanote! They've sponsored my channel before, great tool.
Congratulations!
Thank you!
Awesome marketing idea to hide the the coupon code! That deserves a huge thumbs up!
Thanks so much!
Great
I'm definitely the not getting past the firs 5% guy. I just have so much to learn with animation, rigging, lighting, creating environments, etc, etc... and it gets overwhelming that I just end up procrastinating.
Needed this.
Hope it helps
My biggest struggle is getting my Armature to work. I'm actually working on a group collab for a 2D feature. I have my model in T Pose but for some reason when I bend at the waist the Eyes stretch from the center and it looks like Tex Avery's Wolf. I figure it is a weight painting issue and my model isn't all one mesh. I just can't seem to gets past it. It's only for storyboard and artists reference but either way, I really want to nail this.
I have some rigging tutorials
2:58 I feel so called out right now. How dare you!
😂
Your youtube recomend feed similar as me😂
I should mention that the short mentioned below is about a woman's right to choose and what can happen when it's take away. It could be triggering for some people.
Which software are you using for the planning phase?
I also want to know
Ok, I got it. It's Milanote
Milanote, they've sponsored the channel before. I use it a lot.
Programmers/Coders have this saying called "tutorial hell" I think it applies just as much to people trying to learn art as well nice Video Shotty
P.S Grow your beard back please, you look like an off-brand Tom hardy 😭🙏
hahaha it's coming back, I had to restart after making a mistake shaving
Sadly, i think i get stuck on both the first 5% and 95%. Very inspiring, though!
You'll figure it out, keep trying
It’s a tutorial about stopping watching tutorials 😂😂😂😂
What's the application for TODO cards?
Milanote! They've sponsored my channel before.
@@SouthernShotty Thanks! Will check it out.
I was just about to watch a tutorial💀💀 and this video popped
My life has changed now, I see a new me now!!😇
(the last sentence is just a joke)
What is the film shown at 6:03?
One of my failed attempts
@@SouthernShotty I think it looks amazing, very dynamic. I would be delighted to see more of it
Keep the beard.
Aku penasaran anda membuat laut seperti kertas yang menggulung. Apakah anda tidak ingin memperlihatkan bagaimana caranya?
NOT TRYING TO BE RUDE AT ALL but how come it took 5 years to make your short film? I'm actually wondering
I have an entire behind the scenes video on my channel that goes through why :) check it out if you're curious
@@SouthernShotty Thanks
*Watches tutorial on how to not watch tutorials*
Hahaha
sick clickbait thumbnail "stop watching tutorials" straight into a tutorial video, I'll start not watching tutorials with this video I guess.
