How To Make a CGI Clicker | Blender Character Tutorial | The Last of Us 2 Fan Art

[@bbfizzle_]

Same exact experience for me. I'm certainly not doing anything as advanced as this but I only ever did Maya before and I too was blown away by Blender when I started 3 weeks ago. I'm a total fan of most of it now.

[@JakeFellman]

love the video - I’ve been contemplating moving to blender as well for projects like these, the software has come so far these past few years. I still can’t believe that maya doesn’t ship with a real-time render engine

[@JoshToonen]

Totally, it has to be the standard! It speeds up your workflow so much.

[@bbfizzle_]

didn't they sorta try with stingray?

[@bryenlink]

The already high level of respect I have for this type of work just skyrocketed. Amazing.

[@SidPhoenix2211]

I've been putting off learning blender for a long time. As a MASSIVE TLoU fan... I think I know what project to do as I begin my blender journey. This was a great video! Keep up the good work!

[@JoshToonen]

What sort of behind the scenes/breakdown do you want to see next? Thanks for watching!

[@adityabhattacharaya4044]

All the break of dawn scenes, like when they rest on the hood of the car. did you use matte painting for that? The environments seemed pretty real at rhe same time. Way to go!!

[@amanctier]

Cool video. I started with blender this year and made a lotta stuff, so it's cool to see a pro using blender

[@yaseenandyounes372]

You are an expert in blender You are an expert by been a character

[@activemotionpictures]

8:08 - The icing in the cake. This totally sold it. Great video! Could you do a specific 8 min video about your "post" process in Nuke, please? It was described in seconds, but I'm sure most of the views would like that extended as well. Awesome lighting, btw.

[@JoshToonen]

Yeah, I’ll definitely cover more things in depth in future vlogs

[@wolfhoundsnow1896]

@@JoshToonen heck ya was gonna ask this haha love the video by the way! what are the odds of you working with blender as a tool now? Also, would love to see how it is added to the footage and the matching process! Thank you, great work!

[@tomcombet3499]

So much hyped about these behind of the scenes series! The result is just impressive and It makes me want to start a CGI career with Blender right now. I want moooore! Do you plan to do a video about integrating this clicker in the movie? It would be very interesting.

[@ClassyDogFilms]

This is great, I like this type of content a lot! Your video gave me a couple of ideas I can use on my current project too. I'm looking forward to seeing more, it's always fun to see how people go about creating their films, especially when they focus on the whole process and not just one aspect of it.

[@diath9399]

This is very inspiring (as well as super interesting). Look forward to more videos!

[@scatterbrainart]

I started using Blender around the time you made this video, and I have not looked back. And just recently I started using Substance Painter because, you're right; texture painting is where Blender is really lacking. Hopefully they'll improve it, but Substance is SO GOOD.

[@liv69420]

absolutely love it. as im working on a blender shortfilm myself at the moment im definitely gonna take some of your point into consideration.

[@ChonnyStone]

Yeah your stuff is awesome! Really looking forward to seeing more from you!

[@oxenwolfproductions-oficia8522]

Thats amazing dude!

[@stealth2951]

Just seen this video. Awesome result BTW. I been using Blender for a couple of years now. They really have done an amazing job making it better all around in the last two years. I think Blender is starting to catch professional companies attention. They still need to fix a couple of key things (cloth,caustics,fluid/smoke) But the program does almost everything you would need. Some are really great ,some are just okay. But when it's free you can't beat it. I would say at this point. It's just as good as the big paid programs. And one major film was made using strictly Blender. That was the film "Next Gen".

[@dylanclark]

This is so cool goddamn

[@mrflyman123456789]

I havent really used maya and 3dsmax before but if blender can make the software more stable and if it can handle larger scenes in the future, it seems to me that they will change the whole industry

[@arnabroy2193]

Amazing Video learning so so much Thanks for bringing this lovely series.

[@asb3Dart]

accept it, blender is the next best industry software.

[@AManOfCulture798]

Damn. Really amazing ! I'm thinking about starting with blender, but, uh, since I don't use twitter, is there some other way to get the clicker's model? Thanks again and amazing work !! (Sorry if this is outdated)

[@AustinThomasFilms]

This is awesome!! Glad I found your channel, I'd love to see more VFX tutorials in the future. Looks like you do a lot of compositing in Nuke so it'd be neat to hear about your workflow more in depth.

[@fsava6324]

Glad you started working in Blender, nice work! Do you offer tutorials or courses? On modelling characters etc in more depth?

[@JoshToonen]

Not at the moment. What would be the most valuable thing to learn about character modelling for you?

[@fsava6324]

@@JoshToonen I think the retopology would be great, but the dos and donts of modelling in blender would be a great overview, also how you've textured this character in substance painter would be really helpful!

[@tytaylor2229]

If you are comfortable with sharing the project file that would be great because I’m trying to practice my compositing.

[@melomaniakjm]

You could have done the compositing in Blender.

Did they hire you for the new hbo film 😩 tell me they did 💖

[@mareck6946]

nice work altho you could render even faster using adaptive sampling and possibly your gpu with the right tilesize :)

Does this film have a date we can wait for? Cuz damn i really want to see it .

Not yet, but the goal is February!

Neat

Are you CPU rendering? Jesus. Pretty sure Eevee looks the same in this case. Awesome work though! Love it!

[@KernelSanders1967]

You are telling me you did all this in 4 days having never used Blender before? 🤔

[@JoshToonen]

Yup! Obviously I come from a 3D/VFX background and I’ve done this before in other programs. The whole point of this was to try and pick up the workflow in Blender as well

[@KernelSanders1967]

@@JoshToonen Job well done!!

[@Randominkorp]

hello, im new to all this stuff, but what course in college or where do i get to learn professionally to be like you?

[@bbfizzle_]

the beauty about 3D (and especially blender) is that all of the info is on the internet and usually free. plus (I work in recruiting for a game studio so I would know) people in the industry really don't care about where you learned it. a portfolio is much much more important than any formal education. with this in mind I'd suggest you just go download blender and watch the donut series by BlenderGuru here on youtube! maybe join some 3D group on facebook for casual advice while you're at it :)

[@JoshToonen]

If you’re looking for colleges, you want to look at 3D animation courses, but there are lots of different jobs in VFX that have their own expertise. I’d Google around to find them, and just get started learning on KZbin with Maya or Blender tutorials! I’m completely self taught through YT

[@Stk45-g7g]

my god, I spend whole day to find this 3d model, but I can't. So I decided to rip it from game files, it was the hardest thing i ever do in my life but I got it. If anyone want to find this model in internet you need to know...... it is impossible.

[@brobro-bw4uc]

Can I get it?
