Add 3D Objects Into Video - Blender and Fusion VFX Basics

[@CaseyFaris]

Totally forgot to mention that there is a HDRI map in blender too which is just ROUGHLY the same lighting/environment as our footage: polyhaven.com/a/bathroom This helps get the right colors of soft, indirect light on the plant and makes a huge difference for the realism.

[@SandeepBalasubramanyam]

Great to see videos on blender as well from you...would love to see more of blender tutorials as well along with resolve...

[@SignsoftheTimes911]

I really like the BLENDER AND FUSION COMBO! Looking forward to more videos on compositing.

[@Metallleute]

I will probably never use this in my life, but I love to hear you talking about this xD Thanks!

[@TheRealBarkinMadd]

I would like to see more in-depth tutorials delving into some of the details (you asked, lol). Your blender beginners course is excellent and I should probably go back and watch it again to refresh my memory on some of the things you glazed-over in this one. Having said that, this tutorial is excellent and really gets the creative juices flowing. Thanks Casey!

[@davisdiercks]

Love! More Blender x Resolve tutorials are always more than welcome!!!

[@FabianNotts]

Jednen z lepszych kanałów jaki oglądam 👌 One of the Best chanel on KZbin 🤜🤛

[@stephanec3436]

Well done Casey ! I I wish you lots of bumps maps for 2022 ! Keep on going this way , please !!!

[@ahmetbaykara.mp3]

Are the Pot and its shadow use the same tracking info (instance nodes)? I didn't understand that part clearly.

[@jlodotogo6546]

Well done Casey ! Like you said, please, do it in a step by step tutorial. And of course, more modeling, lighting, tracking, composinting Blender&Fusion tutorials would be totaly great.

[@callmemrbell]

THANK YOU!! Everyone else makes this so complicated but this was simple to follow

[@LeonCuttem]

More of these 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@jiroarborgh9377]

Yes please, more Blender+Fusion, great stuff!

[@stivosaurus]

Impressive! I cannot believe how good you got that to look by just eye-balling it. The lighting is a big part, I think. As a long-time Blender user and DR noob, I would love to see more tuts on this subject.

[@giusepperusso8624]

Hello thank for this super cool video! If I want to do the opposite? I would like to put a green screen of a person in a 3D ambient, what is the best way to do it?

[@FiddleStickNick]

Perfect timing lol. I just started learning blender a few weeks ago

[@1710000huh]

same!

[@1710000huh]

oh wow, what a cool theme! Thank you dear!

[@jaouadbentaguena8340]

This is great! Is there a simpler way now with Davinci Resolve 19 with magic mask or else?

[@KO28JOJO]

Would it be the same concept to add an animated character ? Track the camera then add planar tracking ?

[@jeanclaudedowningg]

hey Casey I hope you're well! im using Blender 4.2, I exported a video from Da Vinci(Quicktime, DnxHR, Alpha enabled) and imported it to Blender but it has a black background. Ive checked and connected the alpha to alpha in the shading tab, and the color is connected to colour - im really unsure why the background is black because I think I've done everything correctly but maybe you have a solution I'm not seeing? if you could help me please id appreciate it a fuck ton. Ive also reimported the exported clip into Da Vinci to confirm that the background is transparent by placing a solid color underneath it and it is indeed transparent. I then checked in capcut that the exported clip has a black background in there too. I used the magic mask and 3D keyer to remove the background but I don't think that should cause any issues and have checked that the alpha on the magic mask is on.

[@jhevon]

I would love a step by step tutorial, your videos are stellar Casey! Please don’t change lol

[@samduss4193]

in blender you can setup the camera and put the background directly so you can adjust even the sizing and set... when over you can basculate all into Fusion

[@samfisher3692]

This seems to have changed with 4. Any chance of an update? Rendering layers separately is a very useful trick.

[@ljmblacklock]

How do you save the plant and the shadow as one EXR file. You didn't show how to do it, and Fusion won't let me flip between them.

[@4thwalltvandfilm]

Sweet. Let's see some more visual effects, Sir!

[@compliceskin]

Hi, if I have a png of a product how do I make it 3d with motion so my videos won't get too boring by just using a PNG, kind of like what La Prairie do with their products, is this a whole different process, I only just got resolve this week so I learning. any help would be appreciated. Thanks

[@MonzotoOfficialChannel]

Love it. Make step by step pls

[@aloomia826]

Would love an in depth tutorial!!There is void in the blender resolve workflow in youtube which you will hopefully help fill.

[@SmiaanshFX_IQ]

Your GPU is disabled in preferences which means blender is actually using cpu for rendering. Because when you select GPU in render properties it does not gets disable like that it only happens when your GPU is disabled in Preferences in Blender.

[@akcivan]

Hello Casey, can you remake a video something like this with latest 3D improvement version of davinci ?

[@kailimedia]

Actually the question is, is it better to move video into blender and start develop from there or the other way round?

[@mr.danielfoster]

This is great introductory material to give the timid (ahem...me) some context and motivation for using blender. One could argue that this is a HUGE potential for content for this year....in...preparation...for...Resolvecon 2022? How's my subtlety?

[@aneelramanath]

Blender + Fusion (Resolve) , a perfect combo for freelancers , I use it with Renderman. You can also use a similar looking HDR map to get a more closer bounce lighting on the cg assets. But none the less, nice tut.

[@aneelramanath]

Oh, I just read your pinned msg about the hdr map. Perfect

[@aiyewatughu6082]

Hi Aneel Ramanath, Tughu Aiyewa Here. I'm new to Davinci fusion. I wanted to know if it's possible to create an object, animate in Blender and then bring that object with it's animation and composite to final render? Kinda similar to how Element3D works in Aftrer effects?

[@MrStevenhogg]

Would be great if you could do that more in depth as it went over my head , thx

[@NextMerckx]

Is Blender like video encode, where GPU render is faster but CPU ultimately ends up higher quality? Or is GPU render always preferable?

[@jmbuhr]

The resulting quality should be the same, so if you have a good GPU, using it to render is preferable.

[@leorodion]

I will like to see more blender and fusion composition

[@JohnnyDavila]

Just a tip: Don't forget to change the material of the shadow catcher to something similar to the thing its actualy siting on. (like the brown from the wooden table). It actualy interferes in the ambient light that will bounce from it. Amazing tutorial tho.

[@stephajn]

Cool video! I'd definitely like to see more on this topic. I'm curious about something though. why not just bring the object as it is into Fusion and then set up the camera and lighting for it in Fusion rather than Blender? Is there a reason for that?

[@CaseyFaris]

Big reason is indirect lighting and quality. Fusion just doesn’t look as good as a blender render.

[@KilianKunz]

more about blender & fusion would be great. Thanks

[@MrStevenhogg]

Please full tutorial 🙏

[@TheDude-vx6wn]

This is exactly what I was looking for. Is it possible to do what you did in Blender, inside Fusion? Please make more 3d into video tutorials. Looking to setup up my filmmaking skills. Thanks!

[@paulbeaumont4652]

Good video mate, I would like to see more on the subject, you are a good teacher. G'day from Australia and may all your camels be good looking🤣🤣🤣

[@navreetbharat9824]

whats yours pc specs btw love your videos man❤️😎

[@BarezBarznji]

Thanks, please do more in depth 3D compositing tutorials

[@GlennLazer]

Lovely tutorial! why not just add the 3d model directly into fusion by importing as fbx?

[@jurgenvantomme]

Great, thank you!

[@phlmarinho]

Very interesting! Thanks

[@naifox1]

yes please ! do it step by step, because there are many people are not avanced

[@suryakanatanayak9104]

sir make more videoes on this topic

[@julianstelzl]

Thanks for all the tutorials. One question, could you also make a video on how to most efficiently work switching between edit page and fusion? E.g. If you want to make a fusion clip longer in post or if you want to add slowmo to a fusion clip it is always quite tidious. Would be of great help!

[@filipgrzincic]

Appreciate your videos, learned a lot! There is one thing I cannot find anywhere. How to key out green screen LOG footage? Can you make a video about it? Is it easier in Fusion, do I add a lut before keying or after and how to merge it with background color wise, where do I grade those footage, in Fusion or color page, this could be interesting theme, if you know what I'm saying :D

[@ginotarabotto]

This was awesome. I’m a filmmaker looking to get into vfx, and really like adding 3d objects to my footages. How about adding a MOVING 3d object, say like a cute walking monkey?

[@amswil3232]

please do a step by step tutorial

[@Thebarebones_]

hello.thankyou sir

[@GraphEnotik-md8ec]

before i make same things with ae and with plug-in ae2blend. but this is very cool too! tnx for the guide ^^

[@ferlaur113]

Don't forget to activate "Film/ Transparent" in order to have alpha!

[@arsh0603]

Please more 3D Tuts. :)

[@PeterEngelmann401]

Peter Engelmann. Hi Casey, Thank you so much! Fantastic tutorial as always! Love that comb. Blender+Fusion Your great tutorials really helped me to get into Blender (they even helped also to get a basic understanding how the more intimidating unreal engine works). Perhaps an idea: I am recently exploring creating volume fog inside a cube in Blender and see if there is any use in combination with DaVinci/Fusion (it seems there are many interesting things possible with volume fog inside Blender)

[@sched_ar]

thanks!!

[@budanek6358]

You could have simply add highlights and shadow of the 2D plant in photoshop and then track the image couldn't you?

[@prisonofgamesandarts]

how to make 3d cartoon

[@jmalmsten]

More like adding a still than a 3D object. But yes, often enough one can get away with that. Next step would be to get the actual 3D geometry over to Fusion... or At least import the rendered image sequence with a 3D camera exported from blender for further compositing. That, I have struggled a whole lot with figuring out. Also... 64 samples? And here I am, having to go into the thousands of samples to get close to noise free renders... I guess, it helps to only do a still and the object itself is tiny in frame. And denoise and blur on top of that. :)

[@3runjosh]

Great video but the title is a bit misleading, this is not a 3D object inside of fusion, it's bitmap render passes. Off I go to search again lol

[@meha7819]

The Cg plant looks more real then the real one under the TV..

[@kevinmathervideo]

Adding an animation is a little trickier but works well. I exported "normal" Blender video to one file, alpha channel to a second file. Pulled both into Fusion (using 2nd as mask) and voila. ~~ kzbin.infop_VV1i2CC2Q?feature=share Great videos, learning a ton. [Additional: Slight improvement to the above - export foreground color, foreground alpha, shadow alpha from Blender as 3 separate clips and combine in Fusion. OpenEXR image sequence is also possible, workflow similar to still image, but resource-intensive and problematic.]

[@6h4f1b]

Blender plz

[@Altives]

i dont understand this at all, the first part yes, but you start us a little too far into the davinci part

[@kneerunjun]

No such thing as too nerdy, Casey. Tsk tsk…

[@OmerAbdalla]

ِAmen

[@JustLikeRodney]

love the corny jokes

[@daveruble5150]

You're Cute and Fun. I wanna hang out.

[@NextMerckx]

Is Blender like video encode, where GPU render is faster but CPU ultimately ends up higher quality? Or is GPU render always preferable?

[@stivosaurus]

GPU rendering is usually faster - often by a lot. Quality will be the same. It is just a question of where you are doing the math. But memory for a scene can be an issue, especially on low-end video cards. CPU rendering is only limited by system memory. And time...
