Can't wait to see the real u , technology these days..😅😅😅 keep up man
then who is in the video wtf
I think he is fake Mr. Beast 😂😂
t- then who is that...
LETS GOOOOOOOOO cant wait to see who runs this chanel, keep up the work man
I remember watching this animation panel two weeks ago and I was mind blown at all the innovations the Blender team is working so hard to bring. As a 3D animator myself, I cannot wait for animation to feel as intuitive or quickly as rewarding as sculpting, for example; where you can make any changes to an animation without having to go through so many workflows. Very exciting stuff to come!
Honestly it reminds me that if AI were to start sculpting and be average to impressive, we as humans can be the ones to give it more details or delete some in order to make it look so good. Using it as a tool is key. I see blender as a fine sportsmanship like craft engine to inspire these works.
Not really sure what 'innovations' you are so blown away by. There not a single thing shown here that doesn't exist already in other programs.
@@durvids474 Blender is superior to other 3D software, not in features, but for the very simple fact it's FOSS. All the other software is proprietary.
@@durvids474 Can you give examples of what programs already have these features or are more advanced? I think the point of the video was to highlight that the developers are working hard to improve somewhat forgotten areas, to make sure they are able to become "industry-standard" or as close as possible from that point.
you're right, the number of workflows between tools is crazy
The people who make blender possible are such heroes for making it accessible. I appreciate them to the moon and back.
Blender is artist friendly, in every way possible
They nailed all of my complaints when animating and rigging. This is why I love Blender. 🥰
And it’s only going to get better as time goes on 🤯
@Zombies Eat Jerky how much you paying for blender?
@Zombies Eat Jerky Meanwhile those other apps put more of a focus on animaton, but aren't as great in other areas
@Zombies Eat Jerky Yes because each one of those apps have only one thing to focus on. Blender is trying to do all of that at once, it's fucking obvious it would take a lot more time to implement these things. Not to mention quite a lot of artists use blender already despite being "inferior" as you think and some people have already started using blender for their work. Still, I wouldn't say it's as great as all the other programs combined, but once it does get near their level, there's no going back.
nailed? they don't even know if they will be able to do it it's just a dream list
as someone who has been stuck for 6 months in a production for a client. all of these tools are life savers ! i can see going from 6 months to 6 days just by the sheer amount of friction that will be removed.
It’s going to be so freeing, I can’t wait 😳
You'll still be taking more time. Trust me. It doesn't work like that. The better and faster you get. The more complicated your ideas get, the longer they take to complete. But since the tools have increased the speed. You'll just find yourself finishing the project in roughly the same time it took you..or slightly longer
and i am aware of it. having higher quality work in less time is just more benefits. i do spend the same amount of time but i also get more done. longer animations,realistic physics , better polish, less back and fourth with clients , its all positive . and the fact that more complex ideas become possible in a reasonble time is not a negative at all . that and this friction triggers my disorders so no friction is automatically more productivity for me
glad to see Blender doing so well, it changed my life when I downloaded it 8 years ago
I always wanted to learn it, but my iGPU always crash when doing anything more than some cubes
Changing lives since 2002 😳
How you changed your life in blender?
I begun to use blender last week, hope it changes my life too!
This is great! 95% of this stuff exists already in some form or another in modern production pipelines. However, the problem is that a lot of it is either proprietary to the big studios or part of a long list of third party plug ins. With Blender consolidating and making it all much easier to use, it's really going to improve things for everyone.
Exactly :)
The fact they finally let us click over the character body parts during posing the animation is insane. That’s one of the features of Presto that looks so intuitive to how pixar is animating their characters. Super excited we’re gonna be able to as well
I cannot wait
My eyes went dinnerplate-wide when I saw that. Holy shit!
and currently available in Rumba.
wow editing the trajectory directly on the viewport is going to be huge! can't wait to all of these functions to be released, I'll watch all of your tutorials on this :p
I know right?! 🤯
I’ll have bountiful amounts of content for this when it’s released 😅
@@Smeaf and memes, can't forget about the memes
@@alucienando Never forget the memes
There is an old addon that does this called Motion Trail 3D.
@@ADIAN.a1 yep was going to mention that too, from way back in the 2.6 days. It was great! Its still around, not sure if its updated.
Keyframe layers is something Unreal Engine introduce in it's latest release and it's amazing feature and most of bone automation coming from tools like mixamo or accurig ,I just can't wait to see all this paired with node system .
🤯 wow that’s cool!
It will happen sooner than we can imagine
Making rigging intuitive and easy is a monumental task because at its core it's not something that "just works", at least not with all the unconventional characters and features.
My concern as an animator is that many studios don’t try other software because they already have large amounts of proprietary Maya tools. Ideally they make a sweet enough deal to make this change worth it if those tools can be ported over between software.
No it won’t happen. Why change what works ? Why redo all the assets? Who’s going to take the responsibility when things go wrong.
SMEAF IS AN ABSOLUTE BEAST, but he already reveals his face in almost every video.
It’s actually an elaborate face mask
Oh really? I did not know that, hopefully you told me. In fact, Blender has 1M subs 🥳
I've seen the real thing it's worth liking and subscribing
If you look closely, it’s a very well done 3d model with a very elaborate face rig.
This is all very exciting and the potential is unlimited! Here is to hoping they make these innovations quickly! Great video and as always entertaining!
I can’t believe it’s not getting as much attention from the Blender community.
It’s going to be a game changer and I hope they get it to us asap!
I’m glad this longer talking head video was still entertaining and enjoyable! I wasn’t sure how you guys would take it 🥰
@@Smeaf You are doing a great job! You are fun and concise, and you present yourself well! Keep doing what you are doing!
For the most part, this isn't innovation, this is catching up.
I'd argue it's accessibility, bringing tools that used to be exclusive to studios or massively expensive to the individual level.
@@herpderp3916 Problem is if you want to make that comparison you've got to find another free 3D modeling/rendering program to compare it to. Can't think of one myself. (Houdini is free in its apprentice damn near close to a full-featured version). Personally, I think that the fact that Blender exists is great, but it's also maddeningly infuriating to do even simple things.
Thanks for always making banger content! Congrats on the soon to be 50K 🎉
Thanks 🙏
This is why ur my favourite RUclipsr. You give heaps of tips, your editing style is entertaining and funny and you are always informing us about updates!
Thank you so much Moga!
The timing of these new features couldn't be more perfect. I'm currently studying rigging and weight painting and animation for the next couple months and this has just given me an even bigger reason to double down on my efforts.
You my friend make some amazing content. I love the breakdowns of things and really it's inspiring and makes things more hopeful for the future of animation. I love to animate for fun as a hobby and watching your content is always a good time.
The best part of this video is that I’ve recognized 80% of the Nintendo music used in the background. Big insight for me too in terms of video production, love how you made all these hard cuts between songs w/o make them jarring. I always tried to use the same song throughout my video but will certainly try this in the future too
Crisp editing, great information and a smokin call to action at the end. This guy is TUBING!
I just started studying blender and your channel is amazing, thank you!
Thanks! I'm glad I can help out
This video got recommended to me and I subbed. I'm a 3D animator who likes using Blender but I use Maya for animation, still learning. I'm so glad that Blender will get more efficient animation tools! I've been using the pose library for character animation and it has already saved me so much time, so I'm looking forward to these animation updates in Blender!
i'm starting to think about blender everywhere I look the more I learn about it. like in this video the way the camera moves slightly as you talk reminds me of the damped track modifier, which I just learned about a few days ago, and how it can be applied to a camera inside blender so it slightly follows something. really cool effect
This was actually a really entertaining video! It was cool to see my comment up there, if they do add those drag and drop rig features, I would literally die of happiness, I cannot lie.
You may infact die of happiness it seems then :D
Intriguing.. Your videos are so well put together on so many levels; content creators new and old could learn a ton about audience retention just from watching how you put things together. Well done, sir.
I appreciate that, thank you!
I was just thinking the same thing and wanted to see if anyone else noticed it. Great content here
@@lumlins2104 Thank you so much!
Blender seems to get so much criticism from many, not all, who use more big budget enterprise proprietary software. But with Blender being free in both respects, along with how advanced it is and is becoming, not too mention how great the workflow is too... Blender is an ace piece of software from an enjoyability and technical perspective.
Jesus, yes. The temporal editing part in the last section is something I've wanted for years.
Same :D
im genuinely hyped for this. these aren't just workflow improvements, they're total game changers!
Drag and drop a rig onto a character and it just works... I mean, yeah that would be cool but for someone who's been banging their head against the wall with rigs, this is something I'm gonna need to see before I believe :)
I come from a 3DS Max and Maya background and the majority of all the things you said they are implementing are already in those major platforms. They probably got those ideas from those leading applications.
They don’t do the 2D+3D workflow integration though, do they.
@@lawrencedoliveiro9104 No not that I can recall any of them doing anything 2D stuff other than you creating a shader to make the renders look 2d but I was talking about what he was saying some of the new features they are implementing in blender which are already in 3DS Max and Maya.
@@hendersonandre1 That’s a key differentiating feature with Blender.
@@lawrencedoliveiro9104 So that was the context of his video? On what time was he talking about that please because I do not recall it?
Yeah i agree. Naming these features "groundbreaking and innovative" is too generous. Most of the stuff like this has been in other packages for some time now. Looking forward to it though.
It already has begun to change animation, I'm using it for almost all my video projects now and it's crazy what it's capable of
You know several of these new ideas have been in Lightwave 3D for years. I am so happy to see this happening. Considering my main 3D tools now are Blender Houdini and 3D Coat. Thanks for the update.
holy smokes, I'm excited for every idea you showed!! wow!!
Awesome video, I was entertained the whole time aswell. I'm excited for the future of blender!
I'm so glad to hear it was entertaining, I don't usually do talking head videos :D
I love that for a brief moment you used ape escape trance music that was a memory. Love the improvements with blender. I'm just learning and I cant wait to make some fun shorts of animations.
Great video Smeaf! Really liked the content, and I got a lotta Finzar vibes from your edit!
Keep up the fantastic work fam 👑
Thank you so much
Smeaf has both S-tier memes and explanations
Let’s go honestly
Jeez dude, you're the best version of aggressive video and channel marketing I have seen. I'm hooked and not annoyed.
These are some really mind blowing features. I might finally be able to animate! :D
Bro your content is sooo good XD love your videos!
Thank you so much 🙏🔥
the background music to this video pinged like, half a million memories
This all is just f*cking amazing! I love how big software companies would never dare to do so many new things, Blender just doesn't care and proceeds to innovate the entire animation space. AWESOME!!
Pretty much all of these things already exist and have existed in others programs for years!
@@durvids474 yep. I mean even the viewport curves/keys have been in 3ds for years - and max isnt first choice for anim. These tools are old and the title is misleading, I was genially excited.
Oh wow so cool! Well there's definitely going to be a shortage of skilled animators entering the workforce based on my UNI, I'm doing Animation & Interaction for one of my majors and we don't even have any courses for animating in 3D programs, every single course is all 2D animation 😭 I'm having to learn 3D in my own time and yea animating is a pain lol but these new changes looks so awesome.
Which uni?
There isn’t any good university that prepares you for this industry. I can only think of DePaul University. You’re better off self learning or going to an online school that specializes in preparing you for the VFX/Gaming industry
@@tstone9151 This is what i hear from alot of people in 3d is self learning and thats what i am doing myself
im excited, i just come back learning blender like 3-4 days ago,
since i use it back then in 2015
the blender has changes a lot
and its amazing
As an animation student, this is amazing to know! I’ve been using Blender since I was 11 (I’m 19 as I’m writing this), and this is amazing considering I’m also learning how to use Autodesk Maya, but it’s harder for me to use, so I’m so happy to see more hope for us Blender artists, especially with Blender improving over time and becoming more and more accessible 😊
Speeding up back the playback time is most necessary imo. Also, "bake all dynamics" doesn't actually seem to bake all dynamics correctly.
A lot of "Cascadeur" and "Animbot" inspired ideas, LOVING IT
Nice to hear all these new changes!!
Same, it's gonna be great to use these tools
This gonna be an absolute banger video, like all Smeaf Videos
Freshly baked as well!
temporal editing or motion path has been there in max and maya since forever it about time they introduced it in blender
Wait you can physically edit motion trails in the viewport with Maya already?
also temporal means time not temporary
@@Smeaf you can
@@Smeaf Also Cinema 4D. Basically every program except Blender, sadly.
Yeah these are all excellent features for Blender to implement, but many if not all are in Maya/Max etc already.
This is pretty awesome! Great video.
I stumbled across this video and have never touched Blender or animation, and yet I liked hearing the terminology and some of the considerations with animation. :)
Yooooooo! Can’t wait to see this!
Hope to see you at the premiere!
That information about rigging has made my week
Lets honestly go, fr fr
Looks nice - I like how they're implementing all this stuff at once. A giant leap.
Darn it! I had that exact idea for the "motion paths" as an add-on back in 2012. Now I wish I had gone ahead and developed it instead of being constantly distracted by other things! It'll be great to see this functionality baked into Blender as a native toolset though. 👍 Perhaps I'll revisit some of my other Blender ideas this year. 😏
ilove your videos they are so clean, hd, good and perfect .
Thank you very much!
Really like the new innovations that blender has been doing in the main few movie that have been made in the industry, really making it a platform for more traditional 2D variety.
They really are becoming the everything tool :D
Sounds amazing, hope they are able to make this all happen
One thing I like about Blender as a Company I'd that they listen to their users; and instead of willy nilly updates every decade, they make useful updates on what honestly seems like a daily basis at this point. And even more, they make the tools and test the practicality of them in their open movies, seeing what's needs and how new tools work in the workflow. Blender as a company honestly is top tier and I'm grateful they made their program free and open source.
It’s astounding that we have the capability to use this for FREE and that there is a near limitless knowledge base available also for FREE 😳
I can't even fathom that this kind of software can be free ,
i'm really grateful for those tall dutchmen for just give it away for free...
They’re not a company. They’re a nonprofit foundation, and the development direction very much comes from the user community.
Great news!!!Blender is looking more and more like Maya with these promising animation tools. I hope it also looks more like zbrush in the sculpting tools. So I can just use blender for animation and 3d modeling.
No other tool does 2D and 3D in one workflow.
It'll have everything at an insanely good level in the future, it will just take T I M E
honestly zbrush is 10x better than bleneer currentyl
@@straightcheeks4756 exactly, currently.
@@bingobangini wouldnt bank on it anytime soon. Waiting for it to get better is losing time.
Oh my, rigging nodes is so ingenious i can't even
All of that sounds awesome!
This stuffs going to be awesome!
Wow!!! This is so awesome; blender is really giving the word "free" a new meaning!
Everyone at Blender HQ are working so hard to make it easier for everyone. Ton is the GOAT!
A bit worried for the nodes though. Currently having a hard time learning geometry nodes and I'm curious how this will affect the workflow in animation.
so glad I found your channel
So glad you're here!
The thing about Blender is that it's not afraid to change. And it's smart. Absolutely love the way this is going.
Nice! 3d Animation takes forevvvvveeerrr...I've only used Blender, so I'm definitely looking forward to this update...
Im glad Blender are improving anim tools, the current ones prevent me from bothering as an animator, but the title is very misleading as everyone of these points can be done in maya, and even max does most of them. I can't see mainstream using blender for anim when maya is just so poweful.
Do we know when these will be implemented? This sounds like it’ll help me a lot
Amazing ! In wich version would they start to implement it ? I know there's already 3.5 in alpha rn
It’s not set in stone when they will be released, but I think these changes will slowly be rolled out over time as they’re developed, before releasing with a major Blender version
This is the kind of stuff I want to see. Not AI that does everything with a prompt. Excited for these updates.
Sooooooooooooooo Hyped!
THAT IS INCREDIBLE
The goal is to key your microphone and say, "Get up from the chair, walk over to the coffee machine and pour yourself a cup of coffee while thinking about what you have been told." EXACTLY like you would with an actor on set.
This is great and impressive to see blender mature. Remember back in the day of big bunny it was a nightmare to use. I know the title is meant for clickbait, I work professionally as an animator, and these features already exist in other apps natively or through plug-ins. So they're not revolutionary in any way. I'm curious to see the implementation though, because that is where the excitement is. Great job.
this was a good video, i'm subscribing
This is a good subscriber right here, thank you for the kind words
Honestly incredibly excited for the rigging tools. I primarily use Maya for rigging but use blender for literally everything else so it'd be great to have an all in one software. The simple drivers I hope function in a similar way to maya's set driven keys which would make shape key rigs way easier. Hopefully it also works on driving bones as applying action constraints to each bone individually is awful. Also the node based system seems almost like a visual scripting language which would take much of the monotony out of redoing rigs for new characters.
It's going to go honestly insaneo style when it drops
You redo rigs for each character? I'm hoping you're using scripts. You can have a rigs. You can have a character ready in less than a hour. You'll still have to paint weights though. If scripts are not a thing. You can use bifrost to rig your character. Maya's visual programming language. That thing is the industry's dirty little secret. It's beyond broken. I'm sure you can do the same in Houdini's nodes. Saw a guy do it once.
@@jomo2483 In maya I script most of the things but for blender I never really bothered to learn scripting. By the time I learned scripting I was well into the maya pipeline so it didnt make sense to learn a whole load of new commands to create a blender autorigger. I would love to switch to blender fully as I just generally like the interface and community more but its a lot harder to find tutorials at a professional level.
I liked your way of explaining,good video.
Glad you liked it!
Blender's lack of an IK pin constraint was the first peeve I had after migrating over from trueSpace.
This is going to be amazing!!
Absolutely 💯
God, I've been slacking off on my learning on this software, but this encourages me a lot. I did Maya in college back in 17' but I've always had a thing 4 Blender
Very cool stuff. So will these features be available in weeks months or years? Thanks for the killer channel
At this point, potentially years, but it’s at least in development and I’m sure small updates will roll out over the next years incrementally with alpha builds
@@Smeaf Thanks. We are 100% beginners who run recording studio and make music. We are having to learn basic animation and it looks like quite the mountain to climb. I wish there was an open source app that was the equivalent of Adobe character animator because that looks pretty easy to use. Any suggestions appreciated
@@Smeaf It's not in development. They don't even have concrete plans at this point.
- The blendshape when posed workflow and motion path editing already exist in 3dsmax for possibly over a decade (skin morph is for sure old)
- Animation layers in any configuration are also a mainstream feature, it really depends on your setup
- Visual manipulators that you can just pick in the viewport I don't think is anything new
The temp rig thing is interesting, especially if the motion is automatically kept after deletion - but if the rig is useful you probably won't delete it
The pinning of geometry is something you can fake with modifiers, an easy workflow for that would be awesome
What you really need to revolutionize animation is to transfer Unity's humanoid system so that all animations are interchangeable
and a facial rig system that doesn't require painful setup - the first one is clearly possible. The second is always lacking and even bespoke solutions have a lot of setup work
The closest workflow, but for realistic faces I think is the work done for metahuman
Rig presets/library is cool, but not with simple things that just take 2 clicks
A hand posing tool would be awesome, with preset poses and a system to detect distance to object... which can be probably made with nodes might actually help animators work faster and be less cumbersome - actually I might just make that in Unity
Generally I think - as usual - a lot of these things exist in some form or another, blender artists just don't know about them, because they just use blender - 3dsmax isn't even the king of animation
Great video!
Good job Scott Cramer, glad you’re branching out from Commentary videos, tho not sure why you’re changing your voice for this one, but ok lol
I"ve been working into a kik-up shoot for 1 week, however with those implementations it would be done around 2 days or less from scratch to finish
That would be amazing!
+1 sub bro, you have earned it!!
I just had to comment on the statement about departments. I didn’t know studio’s really do that. I have always had to do everything, modeling, textures, rig, animations, cameras, and lighting. I can only imagine how great it would be to have to worry about only one thing.
man i just begun a short animated series of 5 to 10 episodes and that makes me smile ahah 🙏💪✌️
Awesome!
I had this video in the background while playing minecraft and the explosion sound effect at the end of the video scared the crap out of me
Great video! I'm excited to see what's next! Btw, really like the song at 6:20. Anyone know the name?
The RuneScape music. ❤🔥
My grandkids are gonna love it!
Hahaha You are describing my last year and a half pathway into animation with this intro
Lmao
One thing I am hoping for is a way to do a full-body IK animation in Blender like HumanIK in Maya. Are there any plugins that can do it already or is that a feature they plan to add?
Was not expecting jet set radio to start bumpin lol
It's gotta be done honestly
it all seems very nice, but I'm worried that many of these tools won't be usefull in game animation at all. But rework of motion trails is critically needed asap, and I can't wait to get my hands on it.
That should help with Game animation surely?
