Build a Stylized Topographic Landscape in Blender!

[@qbrd2611]

Definitely recommend the motion graphics course! I bought the original version back in 2022, so was psyched to see a new version! But! When I went to buy it, the old version had been updated! Super cool of you @ducky3d!!!

[@haris7412]

was this updated recently? when was the last update. I am planning to do some motion graphics course in blender. Two available options are RTMG and obviously from ducky @qbrd2611 which one do you recommend?

[@qbrd2611]

@@haris7412 yea, within the past month. When I logged into Blender Market the updated materials were just there to watch/download. I haven't done the RTMG course, but I can definitely recommend the D3D course.

Hello, i am French and "Passpartout" is a French' word ;) "Passepartout" translates to "mat" in English. However, the term "passepartout" can also be used in English in certain contexts, especially in the art world, to refer to a cutout cardboard used to frame an artwork. In a general context, you can use "mat" as the translation for "passepartout."

[@BigWallsy]

You know I always thought it looked like a French word, should have looked it up. But now I don't need to. Merci!

[@oodoodoopoopoo]

When framing a picture to put on a shelf or hang on the wall, there's a paper or cardboard piece that covers the outer edge of the picture and is placed between the picture and the glass. I've always called this the "matte", but some call it a "mat". In British English I believe it's referred to as a "mount" and in France it's called the "passepartout". The translation is "pass everywhere" and refers to something which provides universal access such as a skeleton/master key.

[@mytube001]

I had expected a camera "flying" through the valleys, but this works too!

[@kevsster8728]

just finished the tutorial. tutorials like this keep me wanting to learn more. THX!

[@vizdotlife]

Very nice! 🔥💯 One of my fav tutorials so far....thank you

[@HoofCreaition]

I already bought the motion graphics course. This want me buy it again. And again. Make me very happy!

[@JeanDupont-x6j]

In french passpartout "passe par tout" mean multipass or a key that can open many doors... but at 17:20 it have another sinification who is more rare for french people. Here passpartout refert to the band around the painting you put on the wall. This large band of neutral color ensure that your picture can go in any wall, or "go anywhere" what is "passe-partout" ... passe -> it go, partout -> anywhere.

Fantastic Tutorial! Perfect pace, well explained and beautiful! I have learned so much about blender from your tuts over the years so I wanted to say thank you! I can't justify spending money right now on classes but I hope that me views and comments help with your success. Keep it up!

[@TheDucky3D]

I appreciate the kind words

[@Kregori]

Brilliant! Watching this also gave me an idea of how I can recreate the famous cover art for the Joy Division Album 'Unknown Pleasures'

[@DarcySparkles1]

Loving the tutorial I’ve learnt a lot from this. Looking forward to doing the course as well 👍

[@gordonbrinkmann]

When you want to multiply the Noise Texture/Color Ramp output, it is "overkill" to use a Vector Math node, especially when set to Multiply. Multiplying XYZ uniformly can be done by setting the Vector Math node to Scale, then you only adjust a single value, so no need for a separate Value node. Or you could have set X and Y to 0 and only entered a value in Z, then you don't need a Combine XYZ node to plug it into the Offset. Apart from that, when using a Combine XYZ node it makes no sense to use Vector Math because the Color Ramp output is a float, so you can use a simple Math node set to Multiply and plug the result into the Combine XYZ node's Z.

[@cecens98]

Hi you choose z- direction in the wave texture. But you have the plane and I have a sphere. What should I choose?😅

[@Zakky_07]

Thank you for always providing excellent tutorials. I believe that most of the courses included in the paid program are already available on KZbin and Patreon. Are the tutorial contents different, or are there other benefits to the paid courses?

[@TheDucky3D]

Non of the lessons of the course are available on KZbin just this free lesson.

Hello. I am a blender user. This video is great. I've wanted to do something like this for a long time. You are from the future.

[@joelpinnock8131]

Hi mate, Heard you were the goat. I am here to learn and i also need a good 3d renderer for projects for myself and clients, I’m a designer and engineer by training. Do you take business or freelance enquires if so I would be interested in your pricing system?

[@TheDucky3D]

Unfortunately I don’t take any freelance commissions at the moment

[@nico.spezia]

Done! Thank you!

[@jaysonfontela5761]

[@phyzxengrmoore6928]

In following training videos there is always a missing gotcha. This might be because of Blender version changes. In the vid @ 4:46 the screen collection panel needs to be seen because the workflow is not apparent when creating the collections. But alas most people want their picture in public which really doesnt add to the course content. Come to find out that the 'moving the object' to the loop sequence didnt work in my Blender 4.0 setup.

[@АлексейНовиков-п8л]

спасибо брат, лайк досрочно!

[@sdubinsky7646]

Why use eevee over cycles? because it's faster?

[@survillancesolution387]

About the first 60 frames and the last 60 frames the image speed slows down

I´ve followed this 3 times now and get stuck at 9.49 were you play with the emission, i never get the bloom effect that you get. What have i missed ? NVM i figured it out...

@@TheDucky3D I had made one but it was using After Effects. Same concept but not so 3D. So very grateful you have this one. I really love the topographical animation stuff. This year I have to grind Blender more and more.

[@굿타임-f9f]

Hi, does your lecture on Blender Market have subtitle files? I'm not an English speaker so I need to translate your lecture.

[@TheDucky3D]

Unfortunately no subtitles

[@Shmittery]

When my camera is still, the lines created by wave texture look great just like yours, but when I start the animation, they become all jagged/pixelated and don't look smooth anymore. The phase offset adjustment is hard to see and it doesn't look cool like yours does here. Is there something wrong with the way I have my render settings?

[@matti_sh]

I'm not 100% sure about this, but I think it's only like that when it's being rendered in the viewport. I had the same problem and was going insane trying to fix it, specially cuz aside from the pixelation during the animation, the final frame of the loop didn't look right so it broke the loop. the way I fixed (?) it was by turning off viewport denoising in the render tab right under the part where you choose the render engine (EEVEE). that fixed it for me, hope it works for you too.

[@Shmittery]

@@matti_sh thanks!! Yes, that did the trick, mostly. Appreciate the reply

[@Akagar.]

Great tutorial, but why don't just make a longer plane, instead of looping it. Is it better?

[@dnghn.design]

Maybe because it's more scalable and procedural (can be changed easily later on)

[@TheDucky3D]

It needs to loop as some point, so this way it’s easier

[@rudreshdulange6042]

My Blender keeps crashing when i try to render this. everything is absolutely the same it still crashes . What should i do??

@@ImTheCook7 yeah, that's right in the end, it just works, but it's a bit confusing for someone who is still very much a Blender noob oh, and I use EEVEE so maybe that's a factor too

The animated lines turn out to be a bit jittery for me and I can't quite figure out why, does anyone have a brilliant idea?

[@oodoodoopoopoo]

Sounds like an aliasing problem maybe. Probably adjust your scale or the rate at which you are animating the offset. Has to do with the phase pattern of your texture and the animation rate not jiving. Search and explore the phenomena called "stroboscopic effect". I often run into this problem when animating the rotation of wheels. Hope that helps ✌️

[@thealmightysnark5878]

@@oodoodoopoopoo Thank you, will do! I changed the framerate which I left at default which definitely helped, going to have a google and see if that does it for me!

Passe partout is effectively french, you don't pronounce the last T (it's pass partoo if that helps you)

[@SerjLimitless]

How can we make the Landscape move sideways as well? In geometry nodes the noise texture 4D mode looks weird, but messing with the vector input somehow gives a flat surface

[@TheDucky3D]

You can stretch it in the grid node
