3D Nebulae and the Power of the Blender Community - Gleb Alexandrov

[@GlebAlexandrov]

Awesome, thank you all so much!!

[@masterxeon1001]

bro. that intro.

[@SuperLong8583]

Thanks for the amazing presentation, it really shocks me. I am a newbie in using the blender. Could you tell me what tools are you using for the slide motion in the presentation?

[@abiyyupanggalih854]

amazing , apreciate:)

[@Anthonyyg]

Absolutely brilliant I really enjoyed your presentation and this is exactly why open source is great moving technology forward through creative collaborative solution. Truly inspirational both artistically and technically.

[@travellermercury5703]

cool

[@CurtisHolt]

So happy to be featured, the EEVEE-focused nebula developments were a lot of fun to work with! 😃🚀

[@davidcripps3011]

Well deserved :-)

[@Arthurboy777]

Thanks for your work 🤤

[@thinkingmedia3140]

You got a sub 😁❤️

[@hashkenhabib]

well deserved indeed.

[@Holobrine]

These nebulas are by far the most beautiful renders ever produced by Blender.

[@WeaselOnaStick]

I did not expect the world's greatest blenderer to pay a visit but I was so very glad he did

[@d4t4d13b]

Thanks for your effort to make this stuff work in Blender, it's amazing !

[@apehunter1]

For me this is a weird coincidence where I said I wanted to make Art with nebulas a week ago and started learning blender a month ago.. AND THEN THIS GEM Thank you !! I'd love to be part of this thread and community

[@GlebAlexandrov]

good timing indeed!

[@catbunny8713]

hey, this is where i’m at right now lmao. can you recommend any good tutorials/resources cos i can’t find many good ones on yt

[@khulgarulfsson8067]

It would be really nice if there were some links in the description to forums, tutorials and/or blend file examples. It’s not entirely obvious where to direct your enthusiasm induced by the presentation. 🤔

[@jadenjabbott]

They need to do a space-themed open movie now.

[@TheJopeToons]

He is such a nerd, I absolutely love it

[@josebarria3233]

Captain disillusion's cameo was completely unexpected!

[@yohwllo2127]

It sure was.

[@thiagodesul]

OMG IT'S ME ON 25:40

[@WangleLine]

Oh hey it's you :D

[@artffan5413]

CONGRATS

[@honichi1]

You can't say much about this. Not just because you can't grasp what these people have done, but just I'm speechless.

[@artao5]

Excellent presentation. I've explored nebula in blender for years, with varying results. I find this all quite exciting. :D

[@pablol4622]

I'm starting and I don't understand anything! Nothing at all... 😔

[@bohdan_lvov]

[@jorgebernier5d]

I was drooling the entire video. What an amazing work and team effort! Excellent presentation.

[@erevanayen]

Me watching this: "write that down . . . WRITE THAT DOWN!" My GPU: *concerned look*

[@yohwllo2127]

Mine just gave up.

[@erevanayen]

@GamingTV Weird flex, but ok.

[@linolafettatnet]

@GamingTV Still a weird flex. You can handle billions of polygons with some tricks on common hardware.

[@BruceCarbonLakeriver]

@@linolafettatnet Yeah the moment where it can recognized the problem actually isn't the hardware. It is possible to optimize code in an insane way. Think of the demo conventions where code demonstrate it!

[@deepelements]

I love this Blender community you guys fucking ROCK! all of you! Today I uninstalled everything Autodesk.

[@georgeleo490]

What do you use blender 3d for? Me: I watch tutorials!!!!!!

[@StarForgers]

My life for the last 8 years... Yep it's depressing ;/

[@AAvfx]

Amazing, really breathtaking. I wonder what is the render time for 3min, 60fps in 4k for a nebulae like this, let's say, for one of the examples. Thank you.

[@gower1973]

Guy knows how to do a presentation

[@masterxeon1001]

gleb. your presentation level is super saiyan. Jesus bro. You legend.

[@mukutswargiary8783]

God bless Ton for bringing us Blender

[@MoonManPictures]

Great presentation, deserves a better thumbnail though. Seeing Gleb in it is cool for the blender crowd, but this is one of those videos which is destined to attract new users. Why not put one of the nebulae in it with Gleb in the foreground ?

[@GlebAlexandrov]

fixed. :)

[@Vidyut_Gore]

Holy shit. What a journey. What an amazing software Blender is.

[@Userdoesnotexit]

Man i love blender conference. its so fun dud

[@yungfailee]

thanks for Blender Community, we have animation node particle and eevee volume now.

[@infomaticfilms]

This is how you do a presentation. So much useful info.

[@AllanMcKay]

Really impressive Gleb! Great stuff!

[@AllanMcKay]

@@rano12321 yeah I’m not biased, great software is great software :)

[@darkwinter6028]

I am SO gonna use this! I cannot thank all the developers and artists who created this stuff enough.

[@WolfgangIX]

i'm speechless... Really amazing!

[@OscarNebeAbad]

Proud of our community, and proud to help Juan Gea with the particles improvement tests! This stuff its outstanding, I was working with Krakatoa so many years ago, and this almost instantly nebulaes are simply stunning... Congratz to all!

[@MrFarkasOfficial]

i swear anytime I hear Gleb introduce himself i smile :D awesome vid!

[@rayzrsharp]

Tip to whoever edits or directs these: STAY ON THE SPILT SCREEN SHOT AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE!!!!

[@RomboutVersluijs]

Yes, but that show big audiio sync issue :(

[@timeless8]

This x1000. Every Blender conf video I've watched so far has been... unwatchable.

[@BlenderSecrets]

This is so cool 😍

[@ScifiSiShredaholic]

great talk, beautiful work :)

[@_casg]

Can’t believe I’m watching this 4 years later I live in a damn cave

[@RomboutVersluijs]

Very slick presentation Gleb, stunning images as well!!!!

[@harshaeranda5790]

Glad you glab master😁👍✔

[@toastypip]

Wow, incredible results! Would love to see some step by step tutorials on how some of those shots in the end demo reel were achieved. I've been a 2d artist most of my life but prior to discovering blender about two years ago I had never done any 3d CGI. Until recently I hadn't put all that much time into learning the process and my Blender progress was very slow at first, but I've been learning how to improve render times in various ways and better tutorials are becoming more available on a wider variety of the many facets of blender which is making it all much more fun for me as an amateur user. Also I love coffee, and eevee…. and shrimp. :D

[@littlesnowflakepunk855]

i would heavily recommend ian hubert's lazy tutorials if you wanna feel like you've instantly leveled up

[@nathan4438]

I'll never be happy with a powerpoint presentation again...

[@AhmadRaza-gm7pd]

what a great presentation.

[@reneseib6532]

got to love to blender comunity

[@MarkBTomlinson]

Great presentation and a very interesting story thanks Gleb!

[@activemotionpictures]

All right Gleb!

[@jhay_vine5083]

these guys are geniuses!

[@hellfrom6511]

This is one of the best talks.

[@SteveErnst117]

the topic he touched on involving using particles to increase detail of smoke sims really interested me...I hope I can find more information about that method somewhere

[@Jonathan-hw7fy]

Gleb did a tutorial about it, check his channel. It is called fluid particles I believe :-)

[@caleeclover7549]

Im so proud in Blender community!!! Awesome!!!!

[@phatboytommy2012]

Blender (and the Blender community) is love in a binary form! So thankful - thanks EVERYONE!

[@dangerouspoems4707]

Nice job.Respect from Russia

[@SomeAB]

I was wondering what Alex is up to, since he was too quite on the youtube for some time. Now we know.. what he was up to ;)

[@stefanocippone942]

Great work...i see some moths following a space station in the last nebula...+3% of realism

[@BruceCarbonLakeriver]

Holy crap ... this stuff will melt my pc down to the center of the earth O_o

[@NickyDekker89]

Awesome talk! And inspired to create some Nebulae haha

[@mikkelmelby]

INSANE i really like Maya & Cinema4D...but i guess its time to migrate

[@yohwllo2127]

Come and join us.

[@nuloom]

Depends on needs. Blender is a sick tool to add to a toolset aside of software like Maya, Cinema4D, Houdini, depends on which tools help you most.

[@PerfectBlue7]

@@nuloom can't you just do everything with blender ?

[@nuloom]

John Doe you can do a lot but in certain software you have more control over certain things. In Blender you’ll have granular control over a lot of things but same goes for all other 3D software. You can do everything you might need to do in one program sometimes, but other times other software has much more suitable tools for doing whatever you’re doing and in the end all that matters is speed at which you can do things. Time is money and here you can trade time for money and money for time.

[@jmalmsten]

is there a playlist available that ONLY has the split screen shown on stage?!

[@akarmdit2267]

brilliantly amazing... kudos

[@janeric8721]

Oh Captain my Captain

[@sfraction9004]

Omg captain :)

[@Wzxxx]

Impressive. The problem in blender is you need to be programming and it genius to make stuff like this. It should be easily accessible for people who just want to create. Tons of advanced tricks and hacks and custom builds impossible for standard user. At the end probably no one even hire you with blender. I really like it but...i am not sure if it is worth learning if you can do things better and easier in other software. If I was younger maybe it would be worth it

[@howkj1]

I made it into Gleb's presentation at Blender Conference 2019! Woot! (31:24) Glad to have helped this awesome community! #SheepIt #howkj1

[@Cyber_Kriss]

Ah... That denoise from Nvidia Optix ! You have to try it to believe it !!!

I wanted to take Gleb's course on space vfx so bad, but put off by the old blender UI. Lol. Please update the course for 3.x

[@anirbansutradhar1626]

you should add edit split,point

[@PaulojnPereira]

The only thing it lacks imho is small pockets of lightning storms inside the nebulas...more research?

[@RaphaelBraun]

Adding path guiding for volumes to cycles would help with render times. e.g. "Volume Path Guiding Based on Zero-Variance Random Walk Theory"

[@cerebralm]

lukas suggested in his talk that path guiding may be on the way ;)

[@GlebAlexandrov]

intriguing!

[@grabdmitry]

Увлекательно. Блендер развивается, я уже оставил Modo, такими темпами и Синема уйдет в прошлое

[@SuperLong8583]

Thanks for the amazing presentation, it really shocks me. I am a newbie in using the blender. Could you tell me what tools are you using for the slide motion in the presentation?

Could be Prezi.

16:53 LOL!

[@overdev1993]

I thought he is showing how to do volumetrics in blender "the history of blender volumetrics" would be a much mroe fitting title

[@RomboutVersluijs]

SImon has more amazing shaders, his knit shader is also stunning to look at.

[@DanielThiele]

How did he make that cool presentation???

im running into flickering when rendering nebula in Eevee, anyone with solution to this, tried volumetric samples
