Yeah. The way he just adds nodes and mixes fifteen of them in two minutes is the kind of thing I need weeks to actually understand.

Yeah.. he went nuts on those nodes. That's were the tutorial ended and it turned into a show off.

Actually node editor is the best in my opinion! Once you get it, it's the best thing and you'll keep using it! But it kind of hard to understand at first! But if you keep using it, you'll immediately catch up

Pretty nice! Personally I would want to pick a model that could be rendered more realistically and probably clean up the mask a lot (if you look close you can see the rough edges) to try something like this, but I'm glad how Blender is becoming more and more of an accessible program for more complicated VFX work like this.

[@bjoernschmidt]

nice tuturial, helped me a lot, and it was very funny to watch. but for those of you, who got the same problem that i had: when after tracking the object floats around somewhere in the scene, not really alligned to anything, just select three trackers, on the ground, go to orientation tab on the left and click on floor. That way, you will define where the base lies and you will have alignment to the ground of your scene

[@AlexTuduran]

You mixed your laptop's mic array with the external mic and that caused the phasing in the final mix. The robotic voice effect is also due to this setup, it's just that the delay between your laptop's mic and the external mic is slightly bigger (~25ms will give you a 50hz robotic sound). So unless you have pre-mixing control over the internal mic and the external one and you're able to perfectly sync them, just use only one mic. Other than that, that cow looked so realistic. Good job.

[@mmicoski]

Amazing!!! In your hands it looks easy. Looking at all steps you performed and the final processing diagram, it looks almost easier to actually construct the robot 😄

Thank you so much I figured out so much from this tutorial that I saved the end result ....of this TUT...a background driving scene I tracked....as my blender startup file and now whenever I open blender it shows my tracked background driving scene... with the default cube instead of the robot over a background driving scene....and I could just do a quick track and change a couple settings and bam I have instant easy VFX anytime I want... I could just go into my blender assets folder and grab a car slap it in there... grab a character from my blender assets folder slap that in there ...and then I have a driving scene I just gotta animate a couple things... yeah true I totally pimped the default cube startup file...😀

When I was younger, me and my brothers made films. (2005-2017). What took me literally 20,000 hours for a crappy four hours of the series could be done in 6 months with modern technology. Kinda pisses me off honestly, but I'm excited to see where the VFX industry is going next.

Also this is nice for personal projects that are simpler and with a lower quality. Once you actually work in the industry and have higher standards things are not so easy, you'll have to make everything yourself and you won't be able to just download a fully finished robot to use in your scene.
