How to do Product Animations in Blender [Multiple Camera Setup]

[@KaizenTutorials]

The audio from my previous video was pretty bad... I tried fixing it in this one with new settings and better positioning. Hope it's an improvement. Let me know what you think!

[@pixoloanimation8895]

Hello, can you please model a leather bag with animation for promotional content for social media? Even if you don't decide to model just the animation will be fine too

[@KaizenTutorials]

I’ll take it into consideration!

[@eobiri]

Many thanks, I have a question... is it also possible to do different frame rates for each camera?

[@KaizenTutorials]

I don’t think so! But tbh I haven’t tried it yet. But it’s a render setting, not a camera settings. So I doubt it…

[@ashishbaby9752]

Hey, can you please let me know what was the render time for this video with the spec which you have mentioned.

[@ddade11]

The track to an empty for camera tracking. That just saved me hours of endless tweaking. Thank you!

[@KaizenTutorials]

Glad to hear it!

[@yuleshmahat9990]

This video has got me pumping so hard to start rendering products. I got here getting sick of trying to animate products by animating the rotation and location for everything and getting shit result. And all i needed was this video to show me that we use track constraint😅😅. You made it look so easy. Much love and appreciate your effort into sharing you knowledge with everyone free of cost. ❤❤❤

[@KaizenTutorials]

Thanks a lot for the kind words and I'm glad I could help :-)

[@abrahamwondafrash7549]

Thanks.... always select the new camera and press ctrl + 0 first then do the ctrl + alt + 0 after that... and didin't know what markers were ...and @6:01 you could have used my trick...ctrl+0 instead of clicking under the outliner.

[@mrmovess_]

Great tutorial. I'd also mention that you can change the "default" interpolation to be linear, so you don't have to change it every time you keyframe!

[@KaizenTutorials]

Yes this is cycles. You can edit your workspace by dragging in new windows. You can drag these in from any corner of a current window. This will split it up and you can then change the window type to create the workspace you need.

[@donaldkhogan]

Sorry to comment on a 2 year old video for help but I'm following along with my own product and I think everything is working great EXCEPT that in my render preview window in the top right (set up just like yours I think) whenever I play the timeline I can see the cameras moving in the left 3D viewport but the camera doesn't transition in the render preview. I have 5 cameras so far in the timeline and they all move when and how they are supposed to, its just the preview doesn't follow the camera transitions. Really great tutorial btw!

[@KaizenTutorials]

No worries at all! Did you add camera markers in the timeline though? You can add these with CTRL+B in the timeline at the keyframes where you want the transition to happen. If you did this can also just be a preview issue because of hardware. If, in solid view, everything works as intended maybe try doing a quick EEVEE render to see if it works. If it does it's just a preview glitch and you're good to render in Cycles as well.

[@donaldkhogan]

@@KaizenTutorials Wow good on you sir, replying to comments this far down the line! Yes I do have the markers set up, and as I kept working I noticed that the transitions do work if I'm in layout view and set the view to current camera. So then I went back to my animation layout I'd created to follow your video and changed the left upper to the active camera, and the right upper to my regular 3d viewport and it worked! So for some odd reason if I split off a new window from the original one in the layout and set it to active vieport, it won't show the camera transitions, only the original 3d viewport in that layout works.

[@jesudoss7795]

Thank you sir😊

[@KaizenTutorials]

Most welcome!

[@amoghagrawal1]

Woah these are some great animations! Could you please share the packed start-up file as the one that is shared right now has missing textures

[@KaizenTutorials]

Thanks! Which textures seem to be missing? The file is already the packed version, so I'm not sure why stuff is missing! I downloaded the file and it works fine for me aswell... strange.

[@amoghagrawal1]

Sorry for the confusion. I downloaded the file again and this time the textures are packed. Earlier the speaker cloth material was missing from the .blend file

The problem I am having with this is seeing the effect of the light with the viewport render very slow on occasions and I don't know why my PC is struggling. I am trying the blender render viewport but I just get a black screen. I've set up all the cameras and angles and now lighting edges etc for each clip, then rendering when happy with the clip. Would appreciate if you can help soon Jesse, as I just want to finish my project now.

thank you for this amazing tutorial! how do you switch between "sets"? like in your finished video you have a setting where they lay around and you play with the shadows. but when I try this, the clock actually from the first scene also lays flat. Do I have to make a copy? if yes how do it so it's not visible in the other camera views? Thanks a lot!

[@KaizenTutorials]

Thanks! You're probably making linked copies or instanced copies. Try duplicating the meshes with Shift+D for each scene.

[@Kurt634]

Great vid was very informative. :) I wish there was a way to set up the camera, empty, tracking, depth of field and camera binding all in one click haha it looks like it becomes very tedious having to do this lots of times. 😂 (I guess just duplicating the camera & empty and reassigning the binding/changing the names might be abit quicker?)

[@KaizenTutorials]

Thanks! I guess you could create some sort of macro for it, haha. But yeah duplication is also an option. To be honest though when you’re doing this for a project you’ll take a lot of time fine tuning every scene. So there’s a lot longer between adding each camera+empty etc

[@mau_1135]

@@KaizenTutorials ok thank you

[@nischal3499]

Hi, wonderful tutorial. I was wondering how did you manage to create that infinite backdrop?

[@KaizenTutorials]

It’s just a plane where I extrude 2 edges and add a subdivision modifier to make it smooth. And add some extra loop cuts to define the sharpness of the edges 🙌🏻

[@ghaznavipc]

Can't you do all of it with one camera and one empty target? Is there a catch using only one and keeping scene clean?

[@KaizenTutorials]

You can, but then you have to keyframe the camera switching positions, changing angles etc which is tedious. Using the markers and separate camera's will make sure everything remains easily tweakable and clear!

[@maxnelson8906]

Great video! Learned soooo much, but I am curious why you keep making the timeline linear and what that does exactly to everything. I may have missed your explanation :/

[@KaizenTutorials]

Thanks a lot! I make the keyframes linear because camera motion is almost always linear. By default Blender makes keyframes ease in and out, which makes it so the camera starts moving faster and faster and then slows down near the end. This can be right for some cases, but usually it's best to just use linear camera motion when doing product shots. You can always change the speed after rendering if you want to!

[@TheAverageJoeBro]

Hello! Great video the transition has been my missing link. I animate for a living and honestly have never new it existed. Just curious, not sure if you said it but, will it render out the whole sequence with those transitions or is this only for preview and you still have to render out each camera?

[@KaizenTutorials]

Thanks! The transitions are merely that, transitions. Blender will still render out the entire sequence as provided in the frame range.

[@kelz89]

Thanks alot for the tutorial, but i have an issue. How will I render everything out as there are multiple cameras on the scene.

[@KaizenTutorials]

By using the camera markers the render automatically knows which camera to use (i.e. which is the active camera) and switches between them to give you a proper render. My example render was also just rendered in one go :-)

[@kelz89]

@@KaizenTutorials okay, thanks alot Sir

[@RayzaldiKurnia]

Hey kaizen, how do you do the infinite backdrop in blender 3.4??

What do you mean exactly? The process is always just a big plane, extrude two edges, smooth those out and make sure it's really big and you're done.

[@KaizenTutorials]

Haha, well glad I could help! Don't feel dumb though. I used to do it the same way as you!

[@Benn25]

is it possible to render the same moment in the timeline with more than one camera? like in some blueray films (especially concerts) where you can change the camera on certain scenes. we really have to switch active camera before rendering if we want to do that?

[@KaizenTutorials]

Yes you'll have to switch active camera. Blender can only render 1 active camera. You can obviously render the same animation multiple times with different camera setups and use editing to switch between the cameras on the same shot. But this would be no different to just adding more cameras in Blender.

[@Benn25]

@@KaizenTutorials gotcha. it means that you will have to render cam1, then manually change the active cam to cam2, then manually rerender the same portion. this is what I did up to now, but I wonder if there is a solution to automate this.
