At Valve: "Hey guys, so we spent years making this high-end film maker, what shall we do with it?" "Give it away for free, and while we are at it we are gonna make several videos about it." Gotta love Valve.
Brilliant work thank you Valve! This will allow tons of frustrated filmmakers to finally make their filmmaking dreams a reality. I look forward to the time when more environments/character customizations/structures etc. become available so the creators never have to compromise on their original vision for their work.
I'm excited as hell about this program, I keep checking my e-mail for an invite. But from an animation standpoint, having everything available to you all in one program, not having to rig individual skeletons for animation, and constantly program in behaviors. This looks like a hell of a lot more fun than 3ds max.
I am a beginner using SFM. I mostly make Half Life animations, and overtime planning to make way bigger and better animations. That is until I realized that making a 3 second animation look good could take 3 hours to make.
@@player70477 1. my comment was 1 entire year ago. 2. the only reason i started making gorilla tag videos is for views, obviously didnt work so im changing my content. 3. I did make SFMs but ive privated all of them as well as my other videos
@@player70477 skibidi toilet didnt even exist 1 year ago, because thats when boom actually made good content. I literally made half life 2 SFMs idk what the problem is
this is an amazing tool. the power it gives you as a player/ filmmaker is amazing, the 3d control is fantastic and it cuts and films and animates like a pro. not one to gush but... im totally gushing all over the place right now!
Although there may be terrible Five Nights at Freddy's sfm animations, there are great TF2 animations yes there's still those, unlike how many think there dead
"Blade up shots" - I've worked both as a cameraman on set, processing foley and as a CG 3D animator with some very experienced and well connected people and not once in 30 years have I heard that phrase.
Valve has announced, that you can monetize their assets from their games in your own creations. But you are not allowed to rip their assets and distribute it separately. (For example, selling a gun or character model that's made by them and pretending that's your creation!) Valve's video policy www.valvesoftware.com/videopolicy.html
Now that I finished watching all the tutorials, I have much more respect for what the animators do. I wish they made keyframing much more simpler in this like after effects or Premiere. Having to relearn hotkeys for a new editing software is probly the most annoying aspect of figuring a new program... I'm impressed with the way you can implement your own voice along with custom mouthing. The locking cams, lighting, etc are small aspects that will make this so fun though. Cant wait to try it
(Crowd cheers and applause) Preston: Well, it is done. I'll call in every member of the crew we have left 2 years since the start of the great journey for the great change.
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas + Camhack + San An Studios was to say the least, a pain to work with. But I must say I'm quite blown away by just how powerful SFM is! It's the perfect tool for making movies in games. Just the fact that you're able to do 3D modeling directly inside the editing software, makes this an incredibly flexible and powerful tool that is way easier to use than having to record the game, and then edit those 2D images in a NLE. I wish I had this back when I was making machinimas.
Stefan Constantin Dumitrache Right now, only TF2, but Valve could potentially release it for some of their other Source-based titles later. There's still lots of potential for importing custom made 3d models and maps for those familiar with TF2 modding .
i think this can work well for animated storyboards, to get the feel and idea for your actual film. epic. in my opinion, as long as we can customize our characters and landscapes from scratch then i'm keen.
Having used a ton of programs in my day, I can tell you that Source Filmmaker is literally one of the easiest 3D animators ever. I have 48 hours in SFM and I'm pretty decent - And if that wasn't what you meant, yeah, some of the ten-minute videos that you see made in the program do take months to make.
Well i didnt know this but i mean there is alot of it to understand but i am a begineer after all i will get used to it but i still cant know how to make a demo man seath a sword from his back :(
Just a couple of questions. First how much storage does take up and can I use this as a video editor? Like import video from camera and doing edit here?
a lot of people are saying this is the death of gmod, but i propose something else; imagine the source filmmaker+gmod, it would be the start of some of the coolest videos ever!
Sorta agree. The polygon and textures are much smaller than todays and map size are limited (and very blocky). Though its still funny how HL2 still has the best lip sync in games since 2004.
Can't forget the people who made Gmod awesome in the first place, such as dasboschitt, Raikujo, kitty0706, and people like Schwiggen didn't even use Gmod before SFM came out and made some of the best ones, and the list goes on.. Here is to innovation, but never forget about the classics.
is importation of original content/assets possible or can one only use assets from certain games? (I know nothing about this software. I'm only familiar with 3d creation and animation software.) Is this like the "Poser/Daz3d" of 3d animation softwares? (Meaning everything is pre-made?)

@@meeperdudeify I mean, games like hl2 and portal run very well on old hardware, and their graphics have aged very well.
@@adityamaram6293 True. However, while I love TF2, it is a bloated, aesthetically confused mess these days.

Shrek is love. Shrek is life.
I'm really impresed how easily you created the Meet the Medic scene! In first view the scene looks so hard to make!
Remember when valve were up to date with SFM? When they were actually good? Me too...
I remember when I basically watched all existing SFM videos when I joined TF2 community in 2013
Bruh the expiration date is suppose to be a pilot for the tf2 adult swim movie wonder what happend

*ahem*
5 years later it still says its in beta. What happened?
Until they do Source 2 and Source Filmmaker 2 I guess o.O
No valve just gave up on it, Valve is just like that these days
actually it was because i heard they fired the only guy working on this thing...so i guess its just ded now

cant do as much but its all a lot more focused

And it only came with Meet the Soldier, Heavy, and Engineer.
Yup

no
Except for the Medic, Spy, Pyro, Demoman, Sniper, Scout. hell, even the Left 4 Dead teasers.
Man this is the best animation program I have EVER used. So bloody happy
Thanks, these are good. They're entertaining, which is what I was hoping for.
They got pretty good graphics.
i heard some portal music (OST) in there! well, it is valve so why not
Looks awesome! Gonna try and learn this program
You sir, you deserve a medal. Really, I was about saying the same things, but I think you said it better than I could say them.
they had no idea what horrors this would fuel.
can you monetize the stuff on youtube?
I think it falls under fair use, even though there has been a big hubbub around the subject for a couple of days now.
Valve has announced, that you can monetize their assets from their games in your own creations. But you are not allowed to rip their assets and distribute it separately. (For example, selling a gun or character model that's made by them and pretending that's your creation!)

2014-20?? FNAF animations
And then you have then people trying to balance the source bit out. (I make tf2 animations)
Honestly i wish i could pay for this software. Its nigh magical that valve made this.
It's free on steam.
It's free ;-;
Your dream came true
The program is free!
free on steam
This is absolutely remarkable!!!!!!
Such an awesome tool! I love Valve!
Can you only use Source Filmmaker on tf2 or valve related games?
I think you can add your own stuff.
Any game that runs Valves Source engine I believe. TF2 is one too but I think it's the same with other games.
You can take any model, map, particle, any "thing" From the workshop and use it to make movies or posters
since now SFM is now about FNAF
Tf2 animation were amazing back then but now there's some good FNAF animators and shitty ones
and sadly the good ones are overshadowed by bad ones like some kind of cinema channel overshadowing some very good animators
