Its in the middle of the night and i need to finish my project in the next 6 hours your videos are saving me 👏🏻😭

[@BrianKouhi]

Happy you're finding value In these videos! Goodluck on your project!

[@akshatsharma3609]

3 point lighting is an old term and a technical and basic start to learning lighting even in real on set shoots

[@kevscotia4221]

Thank you for your videos dude, sometimes I look up on how to do a certain thing on Maya and I mainly get a lot of Blender stuff, which is a cool and all but for class assignments requiring things be done in Maya, it's a godsend to find tutorial videos for 2018 or 2019 Maya. I feel like there is still so much to learn from Maya as I'm only a beginner modeller atm. But yeah, keep up the good work!

[@BrianKouhi]

Glad I could help Alo, happy you're enjoying the videos ^^

[@christopherwelbon3170]

Amazing video and as a student myself the fact you went over each individual thing saved my bacon! Great vid keep making them!

[@BrianKouhi]

Thanks Christopher, glad this one helped ya out. And totally, I remember being a student and looking for chunks of different tutorials from different people to get what I needed.

[@Soaring_Penguin]

Thank you SO MUCH for this video! I'm doing a turntable for an exam next week and this video is invaluable!

[@BrianKouhi]

Awesome, Happy it helped!

Hi all Nice job 3D Animation Hub continue Sorry for rendering Maya update to Arnold SkyDome

[@jamesolumeka6402]

Awesome tutorial. Thanks.

[@mi12no]

I'm glad I found the solution to my problem in the first step. I should have used Arnold lights instead of Maya lights to begin with. Is there an easy way to convert the regular Maya lights to Arnold lights? Maybe a way to link them for rendering in Arnold?

[@CampingWkids]

Easy to follow. Tq for the sharing 👍🏼

[@cletusmugane]

thanks...i love this hub

[@vandenmichael1057]

Nice tutorial

[@BrianKouhi]

Thanks Vanden!

[@fernandojahirmonroyarias1006]

OMG man, i just discover your channel, it's pretty sick!! Currently i'm working in my portfolio and i always have troubles with the turntable part. thanks a lot for the help man!!!

[@BrianKouhi]

Happy you're finding the channel helpful 😁

[@Maggi_jojo]

Hey this video is super helpful, thanks for teaching this to the community, the only thing I have to say is, I think you gotta make the video more HD, maybe it's the resolution cuz I had a hard time trying to read and understand some words and menus. Otherwise the video is great!

[@BrianKouhi]

Hey Maggi, I think for this particular video I ran into a rendering problem. I've since changed my editing software. Let me know if my newest videos have the same problem. Thanks!

[@fiftycent889]

Love this tut so much, subd. And liked..

[@BrianKouhi]

Haha Thanks for the kind comment, welcome to the channel :)

[@emincetin951]

Hi Thanks a lot for this video. One question. When I try to render sequence, My render screen is only gets blue and do not render anything. Do you know how to solve it?

[@shodan2002]

Can I give it a background instead of black somehow? I know you usually don’t do That for a turntable but it’s not for a project I want to add a Christmas themed background to my Xmas tree model

[@BrianKouhi]

Yeah I don't see reason you shouldn't be able to.

[@RavageeGaming]

Mine is currently still rendering so I could be wrong, but it looks like it might be rendering 159 copies of the same image? How do I make it so that it produces the turntable effect like yours?

[@BrianKouhi]

Did you manually animate the turntable? or did you use a turntable Camera? If you have no Idea what I'm talking about.. watch my video on making a turn table.

[@RavageeGaming]

@@BrianKouhi I wasn't aware or missed that part, my bad - I'll check that video out now. Thanks for getting back to me so quick though

[@35anz]

I'm doing a very simple turntable (of a bottle). I'm assuming the render will take like 24 hours. Is that normal? Great videos...I'm super interested in your channel. I'll figure things out (economically speaking) to join your Patreon. AMAZING! Thanks a lot!

[@BrianKouhi]

Oh I appreciate the kind words Roberto, glad you're finding the channel helpful! And don't worry about Patreon, you Smashing the like button is just as appreciated 😁. In regards to your render time, that depends on your amount & quality of lights, and reflection as well as your computer specs.. so it technically could take that long 🙃

[@maxyjay8212]

one question, how can i render without nurbs surface showing in the render port. I've been stuck at this for months

[@mewly5010]

I have a question: Even though my model is low-poly because of retopologising, when I aiWireframe and render it appears to have so much more topology than my model actually does, why is that?

[@BrianKouhi]

I'm not sure exactly what the issue could be, But it might be that you have an option on that renders your mesh in a higher subdivision (smooth render). Look into that

[@moldusoanimation782]

Hello, do you know if I can place the light on an especific place of my scene instead of moving the light all the way to the place I´m working on?

[@cypprispetrus1669]

I have question: what if i use colors and other aiStandardsurface instead of image..how to ai wireframe them?

[@pungqh]

It would be great if overall volume is higher.

[@lootever9720]

requesting you to create a video on a cars crash stimulation

[@BrianKouhi]

Thanks for the suggestion Loot, but unfortunately I don't have any professional experience in simulation, and I'm not sure I'm comfortable enough teaching something I haven't learned fully myself :)

[@lootever9720]

@@BrianKouhi Thank for the knowledge you are providing on your channel. Keep going.

Thanks for reminding me, I gotta go Time stamp my older videos! :)

[@anandhurajan1842]

could you say how to render 3D model as 2D ????

[@BrianKouhi]

There's definitely a way to make your character look more 2D, but I'm not too sure how to achieve it. I might look into it in the future.

[@asadsaifi9499]

Make more tutorials ❤️

[@BrianKouhi]

More to come!

[@neobatalla137]

how to make the background transparent?

[@BrianKouhi]

I believe you have to export with a file format that has an Alpha, so PNG, or EXR formats. then stitch them together in Premiere or a similar program.

[@neobatalla137]

@@BrianKouhi png or exr doesnt have alpha when they rendered using Rendered Sequence so when i try tiff it works.. so i think TIFF is the best format while rendering in arnold for transparent background

would you please increase your sound quality for loud sound.
