Even if you're not a great artist (yet), you can storyboard your scene with the intuitive and powerful Grease Pencil in Blender.
CG Cookie's Paul Caggegi takes you through the easy and efficient process - from color coding to camera position and adding fun effects.
What we cover in this Blender tutorial:
01:30 Understanding shots and scenes
03:10 Organizing our layers (Melvin, Wrangler, background, the sky)
06:00 Camera animation
07:00 Adding color fills
08:30 Adding fun effects
10:45 Big picture: how does this work with other shots?

![How to Storyboard with Blender & Grease Pencil! [Make Your Own Short Film Part 2]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/nWF3mSTMTXo/mqdefault.jpg)
Curious what Grease Pencil is? We have a brief overview video of it here - ruclips.net/video/BBblwTyzgsg/видео.html running you through how to animate text in Grease Pencil. :) Happy Blending!
that was perfect. Please increase the storyboard tutorials in Blender and teach more techniques.
Thankful
Grease Pencil is super versatile and fun to play with! Great tutorial Paul!
Thanks Dantti!
Exciting - I can't wait to try your process!
I've been waiting for a video like this for ever! Thanls mate!
Thanks alot , im learning Grease pencil for a few months , best work flow to this kind of storyboard , thanjs for thr info
Super excited for more of your Grease Pencil tutorials (and your upcoming course)....can't wait! This is the best of the Grease Pencil Storyboarding videos on the internet imho!
Really happy to see this. Solid Grease Pencil workflow advice from the best Grease Pencil tutorial guy in the field.
Awesome! This is the course that I want to buy - animation from Paul Caggegi!
Thanks CG Cookie, he is looks like a true professional teacher =)
I finally know how to pronounce your last name! Unlimited power!!!
You’ve unlocked the next level!
The problem I'm currently having storyboarding in Blender is that I don't really see how it's faster than drawing out every panel and shot by hand in something like Storyboard Pro or even Procreate.
I do a lot of action scenes and storyboard very long tracking shots and the vast majority of these can be thumbnailed and timed in roughly 1-2 hours max when using storyboard pro. At an average drawing time per panel ranging from 20-45 seconds, I just really don't see or feel a need for Blender.
Most of the positives I hear about using Blender deal with the fact that you can do complicated 3D camera work; but in all honesty that seems to just double or triple the amount of time it takes to do a scene like that. Yes, the camera can move in 3D, but drawing that said camera move in 2D is a lot faster and visually more consistent. Half of the storyboards I see done in Blender look very janky and the timing/movement doesn't feel like an improvement over 2D usually because most storyboard artists don't have time to learn very fine camera movement skills.
I'm still trying to learn Grease Pencil better and find a use for it, but right now it just seems like a much slower and more complicated way to do something.
Thanks Paul!
Fantastic! I’d like to see a good deal more 2 and 2.5D training content for Blender.
It's coming to CG Cookie!
Our Boy Paul is back at it !
soooooo helpful as always.
Good Job Paul! I didn't see it yet and it's a masterclass as always.
Grease pencil is a true underdog in the 2d animation scene.
super cool tips on using depth of field on grease pencil objects and siwtching camera with markes! learned something new 🙂 Thank you!
Very cool! I wish I understood how to use even the basics of Grease Pencil tool, seems super useful.
Paul is creating some great tutorials on Grease Pencil for us! See what's coming next here: cgcookie.com/posts/what-s-in-the-oven-april-2022
Spitfire Storyboards channel goes in depth on his channel.
Thank you s
soo much!! For sooo much Input!!!!! 🤩😍
Amazing explanation sir🥰
I've still yet to go into Grease Pencil, so this was also a good explanation of how it's organised.
Awesomeeeeee❤
Great video, really helpful! Quick tip on the grease pencil modifiers. You can just apply to the first grease pencil object, then select all the other objects, select the first object again and select "copy to selected" from the drop down next to the little camera icon on the blur modifier
I knew I recognized that voice when I clicked the video!! Feels like ages ago I was watching Paul's channel on the regular. A welcome sight and sound indeed!!
Excellent, amazing tutorials and information. 👍👍😊😊
I seriously want to learn Blender Grease Pencil. This stuff has so much potential
Just now seeing this. Super cool! :)
that was perfect. Please increase the storyboard tutorials in Blender and teach more techniques.
Thankful
CGCookie is really putting the pedal down... It is hard to keep up with them. There versatility has become huge over the last months... I guess we all know what they have been up to during lockdowns . . . baking cookies... :-)
The Cookie oven never rests!
great
Lets Go Paul!!
More Paul please.
I've seen storyboards on yt before, seems like a lot more work was put into whatever this is
I am very much looking forward to taking the upcoming course mentioned in the video. I checked CG Cookie just now and it seems it is still in production as the Animation\2d filter presently does not return any courses. Actually hoping extensive and comprehensive Grease Pencil courses appear as soon as possible as it looks like such a rich creative solution compared to the animation applications I have used up to now. On a side note it’s just such a shame one of them (clip studio) is leaving so much potential on the table by not providing more robust animation features. I’d be ecstatic to just create my assets in Clip Studio and Creative Suite and just cart them over to Grease Paint to take advantage of its amazing features.
Any idea his soon the Grease Pencil Courses will be available?
Bonjour et merci pour ce cours express ! À bientôt. Philippe P.
Seems more like a full 2d animation rather than a story board! Looking forward to trying it out!
The line between storyboard and animatic is so blurry now! Having those capabilities there is very handy, tho.
@@gernotkinzel8146 client-side, when they ask for a storyboard, adding limited animation is sometimes part of the deal. A straight sequence of stills is not really presentable, so we jump directly to boarding for the purposes of making an animatic.
Super .. there is this tutorial in full length and step by step?
can you please update the tutorial for the cup shatter with fluids in it plzzzzzzzz
Cool tutor. And what is music in this?)
Thanks for this video and all the great videos you do. I have a question: I can definitely see the usefulness of this, and the usefulness of the story pencil add-on. Unless I’m wrong because I just don’t know enough yet (which is definitely possible), story pencil seems to be more for Blender’s 2D animator mode and not really much to do with the 3D views or for use of grease pencil in conjunction with 3D meshes and environments? I hope I’m wrong because I can totally see the benefits of both approaches, so I’m wondering if the capability exists within Blender to combine them. Does it, and if so, do you know of any tutorials about that?
👍🏻
I need to do a storyboard and maybe crease pencil is the option. can you add bones?
You can.
Hey, i wanna ask that is [11400h + 3060(95w)] configuration laptop enough for 3d animation
👍👏
how do you get the likeness
You wouldn't happen to have a tutorial on how to transition from Storyboard Pro to Blender, would you? I'm trying to introduce a long time (and STILL full time) Hollywood pro to Blender, I'm 3D and fairly proficient and 2D is just out of my wheelhouse.
sir, i3 12100, 4 core 8 thred can I Larne becic wark Lumion, C4D.
i've been following this to the letter but no matter what I do, the gradient for the sky keeps coming out as a solid colour instead of a gradient :(
Did y'all stick around to the end? There's a pretty funny nod to Monsters Inc.
