[@roquejo6194]

great video! you just forgot to mention how to start the render, F12 for anyone wondering

[@YunoGasainazimethslave]

jfc thank you. this is the 3rd video in a row i watched where they explain everything EXCEPT how to initiate the render.

[@andersbodin1551]

this was all i wanted to know

[@Trippysalad]

LMAO this is the one thing i wanted, thank you duuude

[@sinister9474]

thank you dude few minutes be came to the mini heart attcked😅😅

[@devilalwayscry]

You deserved a like and subscribe buttons more than him lol

[@LeopoldtNothling-pd6un]

bro made an entire video, explaining how to change stuff on the scene. Which, yes, is very helpful. But you didn't even explain how to setup the render

[@xenith7831]

people always discourage me when im talking about wanting to be a 3D designer but, your videos really help me out and shows just how simple it is. thankyou for that

[@Xp366]

"3d designing is easy" famous last words

[@FunDumb]

Thank you so much Josh, two years of reviewing this video every once in a while. It's definitely been a big help to me.

[@altkev]

lol, a beginners guide that doesn't actually show how to do the render part itself.

[@lauraarias4222]

Thank you, you save me 8 min of my life. Bye

[@rafaellino7168]

terrible

[@mr.fanstastic9010]

his always trying to sell some products to us

[@carl1465]

So I'm just now getting into 3D design (I've been a graphic designer and video editor almost my entire life). I'm so mind blown by the simplest things in this space. The infinite backdrop blew my mind lmao.

[@unskill5362]

I would love to see more advanced guide for rendering in blender, maybe some tricks, things we might not know, etc.

[@Invisibletoday]

Yeah I’m a beginner and I’m already doing this

[@AntwunTheDancer]

Like what?

[@ivyr336]

Also very much interested in this. Want to see how nice you can make it look if you really put effort and experience into the scene

[@stretchypants999]

Max Hay is your man

[@rashid_hafez1]

you dont tell us any of ur hotkeys or keys. For example, after you align active camera to view, what button do you press to move the camera render view around

[@isaacbaer4724]

Also very confused on this step

[@utahwaxwing]

you probably already know the answer, but you can select the camera then hit /G to move it around the same way as any object

[@miamesa8652]

The video's pretty great, here's the missing part, in order to finalize your render, you either go to "rendering" and then select "Render image" or, you press F12

[@tomobryant2070]

You covered everything except how to export the render. I can google it, but it'd be nice to have it in the video. Anyway, thanks for the tips.

[@PetrvsMaximvsChannel]

Hi Josh! I'm from Italy and I've found your channel from a while and...W O W! Friking useful! I'm total noob of blender but i'm still workin to increase my skills from a month and results are comin out. I do hope your channel will increase and have a looooooooong life! Keep it up Josh! Greetings from Italy! 😄🇮🇹

[@deividcm2]

Really helpful, my render improved a lot just by doing these steps, thanks again Josh!

[@PyrianVT]

I like how you mentioned which plugin you were using here, please continue that! Even if it is in an explanation tab that pops up, because it helps people follow along.

[@sorwar2024]

This is brilliant. Just learnt something very basic and super useful today!

[@the_headless_horseman9682]

Would be really helpful if you also explained how to do the beveling and extruding for complete blender beginners like me.

[@thavrisco1632]

That's in another tutorial

[@broattab9807]

Thanks this helped me make my first render for a friend who models but doesnt like renders :D

[@trigon8225]

I was rlly into blender and i got good at modelling but i was lacking the skills to present my work. And this tutorial was just perfect.

[@sinister9474]

thank for your video dude, really helpful for easy understanding 🤝

[@thataussieaviator]

I'm still a bit confused, how did you get it to look like the image at 7:15 . Like without all the fuzziness and stuff. Do I just take a screenshot?

[@freekickerz2023]

You are best ! Thanks for the video❤

[@chilakiller0369]

As a 3ds max user trying to learn Blender in a past few years, i feel less anxious. Thanks! I learned a lot in only 8 mins.

[@mitchelldavid2916]

subbed and liked before even watching because the video is 8 min long and I feel like its gonna work well lol

[@VOTECHGURU]

Great vid and subbed!

[@youmichua]

Thank you the most useful video so far because it is also short! Thank you!

[@guntersg]

Brilliant video, thank you so much, this was super helpful! Quick question, I'd like to import an obj file for rendering but it has 2 components and they need to be different materials. How would I do that please?

[@OliverWeidner-fu4up]

How have you done the extruding?

[@optipus9019]

This helped so much! I was wondering why my renders looked so bad... HDRIs and using Cycles helped so much!

[@nedarma]

thank you very much, your video helped me a lot

[@FromInfinityTV]

I ran through a few, rather annoying tutorials to find this one where you explain it simply. Thanks!

[@guruprivatbahasainggris4496]

Thanks, so clear and simple. I like how you describe it.

[@NyanGeneral]

This was exactly what I needed and was looking for, perfect.

[@lumosart]

Great video, very concise and easy to understand for us Maya users

[@artworks3d]

thank you Josh, very helpful!

[@wilholland100]

Thanks, but for someone who is very newbie, who is doing the most basic basic 2d drawing what does it mean when you go to the render screen and you see complete grey, nothing. What might be the obvious answer as to why I don't see anything, and I chose "render animation." and it made one single png file (rather than multiple. Camera is on. I have the viewlayer selected, from what I can tell, and every other possible option that chatgpt suggests. And I see everything in "render view" in the layout. Hoping it is a short simple answer. thanks if you have time to answer.

[@3MxCARTOONS]

In 4:27 can someone tell me the steps to make a curve plane i still dont get it please if any shortcuts are been used please mention it in stepwise it also helps others who didnt know

[@TMosier88]

Go into edge mode, select an edge and extrude it straight up with the E key. Then select the lower edge again (the same one before you extruded it, bevel it with Ctrl+B then use your mouse wheel to scroll up and add a bunch of segments (he did 100). Finally, select the newly curved plane with right click and select Auto-Smooth.

[@Mographology]

Many Thanks!

[@toddeddie4242]

Would appreciate all the hot keys you use, couldn’t follow along. ESP when you pulled the edge of the plane up to create a backdrop

[@zakroberts9052]

I still cant work out how he did that

[@preciseb-list1784]

@@zakroberts9052 ctrl+b , anyone wondering

[@kallesirvio2695]

@@preciseb-list1784 Doesn't work. Why TF anyone tell me straigh how anything fucking works, everything is different in every goddamn tutorial.

[@nimaghoroubi9324]

amazing, just amazing, never had so much useful info in 8 minutes. love it.

[@kb3cxe]

Thank you. Why is there a line dividing the part in two??

[@Skipp3rBuds]

I think I might benefit to a keyboard and mouse tracker on the screen. Not super familiar with all of the shortcuts yet.

[@nickcarter2237]

Just saying thanks for this short video.

[@DaCapitalist1]

Thanks Josh! I really need to work on this :(

[@pduarte12]

Sorry new blender user, how did you made that backdrop, extruding and beveling in a faster way?

[@TheDailyDriver]

man you totally lost me when you extruded the background... I wish you had your keystrokes shown so a noob like me could follow.

[@Adrian-wd4rn]

Fact this ass monkey hasn't replied to anything shows you how much they care. But hey, buy their blender bros bullshit!

[@coucoul38]

thx for showing everything but how to actually render the scene

[@iAndy86er]

great and then you say I dont go through rendering....and suddenly you have the picture. Good rendering guide...

[@blenderstuffs]

Amazing 🤩🤩

[@xenofrost69]

Hey Josh. Any plans on Substance tutorial with some real life objects?

[@JoshGambrell]

I have a few substance tutorials on my channel. Anything missing from those?

[@xenofrost69]

Sorry if missed those mate. Thing is that every time you put out video with some random object, I always ask myself "what the hell is that". Don't get me wrong Josh, everybody appreciates what you do here and content you put out including me. It's just that I would like to see some real life objects modelled/blocked out. In the end it's your channel mate, your choice, your rules. Just an idea. All the best.

[@LBPFrost]

@@xenofrost69 you know you can take the principles he teaches it and apply it to any object right

[@ChristmasParfait]

shouldve warned me it would cook my computer lmao

[@devikiv5160]

thank you it does happen to me i don t know how to render

[@Bend1m]

Would be helpful , if the shortcut's are shown in the video.

[@thealtchemist.x]

Thanks!

[@conceptwcom]

Cool as usual!

[@redfoxgraphix]

very easy to follow! Thanks

[@MichaelCarnahan-h2r]

What shortcut keys did you use for the infinite backdrop?

[@flopateernasef4403]

Did you know the shortcut? Because i am wondering that same question

[@ajeesh3485]

does blender has premade materials like in keyshot or every time we have to make our material

[@jesusdominguez5108]

Bro how did you do that bevel thing from that one single edge I can't figure it out

[@beenix5283]

ctrl-b with the edge selected

[@jesusdominguez5108]

@@beenix5283 that still doesn't work idk why

[@florinpetcu1044]

thank you!

[@bellatrae1408]

Just wondering if anyone else had an issue like this-- everything is purple at the end. everything was fine until i imported the character, and even if I go back to a previous save (before I added the character) it's still all purple (or pink, whatever you see). I can't seem to figure out why, nothing was corrupted before?

[@mr.lunatic3157]

No texture in the model ? Or hdri missing a image texture?

[@saurabhsharma-vi1wp]

could you upload a car modeling series using hardops and box cutter..??

[@Steppinonshii]

I have a 4090 but my render takes so much time to denoise once I move the perspective, what should I do ?

[@5FSF]

How do you get the viewport shading to look like that in the first place, like right from the beginning of the video?

[@TMosier88]

Where the shading options are in the top right corner (the 4 spheres/circles) is a drop down. Ensure you are in the option directly to the right of the wireframe one and select the drop down. There is an checkbox for Cavity, enable that and you should have those "highlights" that he has.

[@petercheung63]

thank you Sir

[@pinelopiconitopoulou]

What is it that you click and all the stuff appear? rendered etc.

[@drawingkupfer6967]

Im sure everything you said was helpful, but I looked at this video especially to get the button in the software that lets me render something... and I didnt catch that in the whole video.

[@BombowaKunaFPV]

What's the matcap that you use in the layout mode on the begining (that white edge effect)?

[@thevoid6756]

in the viewport shading options towards the bottom check "Cavity".

[@seaneyo]

at 4:13 you select edge and I can't find that menu. every keypress takes me like 20 minutes to recreate, brother.

[@hikurae]

I dont know whats going on there either

[@iamplaceholder]

Yeah this dude is garbage and should learn how to provide proper tutorials before making videos on them.

[@josephvanwyk2088]

So here is something I can't figure out. I do this (with high samples, and 4k resolution) --- then when I zoom slightly into the image, all the edges are pixelated. How do I get crisp 4K images? For example, when I do a simple viewport render - it's 100 times better than the normal evee/cycles render that gives me pixelation when I zoom in (on a 4K camera resolution) - I don't understand this.

[@altar7885]

Great, thanks a lot. What's the advantage of using nodes to rotate the hdri instead of just doing it in the world properties?

[@anonymouse527]

Where is this setting in world properties? I couldn't find it (blender 3.5)

[@Tech_Marauder]

How did you rotate the object at 5:40?

[@cgimadesimple]

useful video :)

[@veskomenas]

Great. But damn how i miss those hotkeys on the screen :D

[@Austino-Technology-Ltd]

Can one render BuildingDesigns here also ? I mean an Archicad 3d model exported to blender and rendered there ?

[@MYTHFROMNATURE]

The angle which I try to move wasn't going to the place I want?

[@dawidziu4351]

How to activate the wheel bar? 1:09

[@k-8844]

hey josh, wondering if one should purchase boxcutter/hardops to start off serious hard surface modeling or use normal blender to see how far i can get without it... (for context, ihave a solid understanding of blender itself but a very basic understanding of hard surface) does it cause bad habits to use add-ons right away, or is it simply a better method that gets me to the same place with less hassle?

[@marcosurrealius]

I ve been following Josh and Ryuurui for about a year now. Started with vinilla tuts which was good for learning the fundementals. Then i got boxcutter/hardops and it changed my life. Its well worth getting in my opinion.

[@k-8844]

@@marcosurrealius appreciate it! i'll giver a try!

[@robbycrawford]

Why am I seeing objects in my renderings that are not there (and not there as invisible??)

how do you make it so light is from everywhere, idk how to say it but for me its really dark

[@3DCrafterBro]

thanks :D

[@dkaz94]

im a beginner and i understand shit from this video

[@miura_vs]

This isn’t a tutorial, it’s a paint-by-numbers.

[@mark8664]

Oh man this Chat GPT is replacing everybody! Sorry guys but they give concise answer instantly. Like how to lock the camera to view Ctrl + Alt + 0.

[@toddtj]

Doesn't really cover all the needed material. I'm here based on the title for a basic guide, more than needing to know how to tweak the materials I need to know how to just basically render a scene. Trying to figure things out myself my entire render is solid gray. I think it's too zoomed out or something but for the life of me I can't figure it out. I thought I missed a step or something so I looked up a guide, followed yours, and my render is still nothing but a gray screen. Not a bad video really but not what I needed from something titled as it currently is.

[@navalrajput3701]

How to learn it from basics

[@franziskaenger5411]

could you maybe add in your mouse or shortcuts demands you use so that it is easier to understand how you you what you say you are doing

[@lamarwealthchild6199]

can you actually teach us how to use the render engine [cycles] please this video do not even mention the basics, the video is more about setting up a shot to be rendered

[@SANJ795]

thanks

[@slaaayx]

This video is supposed to help, and I thank you for that thought, but I feel left alone with all the hotkeys you are pressing. I have no idea how to scale up. I also have no idea how to adjust position with hotkeys. I can not apply anything you do in the video. Consider adjusting the videos so beginners can apply them.

[@ganapatikitty]

so when I add the environment, it just doesnt show up even after unchecking transparent? does anyone know why?

[@navalrajput3701]

Did not explain everything about the blender as a beginner everything is unknown

[@joewood7540]

But how do you render? This is tips about getting a good render, but someone handed me a project file, and I'm just trying to output a PNG sequence with it. I thought a "BEGINNERS Guide to Rendering in Blender" would tell me how to render lol

[@mauromiramontes2966]

Is there an app I can do this on my phone

[@KaitJordan01]

As a beginner it's really hard to follow what you're doing when you're jumping around the workspace without really explaining what's going on.

[@Judefir]

how did u bevel the background edge?

[@syafiq.larrieshoes933]

use ctrl + B(bevel) on the selected edge, scroll (up or down)middle mouse for increase or decreased segment

[@OnyxLee]

This is NOT a good tutorial for BEGINNERS. All the keyboard shortcuts, all the super efficiency, are not for beginners.

[@greeenblueee]

How do you output?

[@arr84.design]

Josh, as a complete beginner, I was totally lost when you did shit A to add a camera. I entered values as you but I was in Lens options so...i was lost in a big gray screen... so...no really a complete beginner tutorial. It's for someone who does know already something about Blender.

[@arr84.design]

oh btw. You don't even say HOW to start the render...............

[@minakshibhumra8361]

You should think like a beginner while teaching to beginner.......You did not mention how to begin rendering.
