Feels illegal to be watching this for free 😭 you're literally a genius

Then pay me and then watch

[@ianzander5057]

lol. Why? This info is everywhere. He did a good job at explaining it. Yes. I enjoyed it. But if you put any effort into it you can find out this information and workflow in tons of places. 😁😀😁😀

[@silvazz0]

@@ianzander5057 bro why you leave spaces so big it feels like when the teacher makes a statement and gives the clas 5 minutes to form pairs and discuss it

[@jmfs3497]

I am probably twice your age and have worked in media production for most of my life. Rotary phones were the only phones when I was a child. The good news about A.I. is that technology has always been changing epically, and the entire ride I have heard bosses exclaim "We're gonna be out of a job with this new technology!" My advice is to never hold back on YOUR growth. Forget the pressure to abandon your own path if you enjoy it. My entire career has been as a magician. My clients don't know why my work feels better than anyone else's work, but the point is they can FEEL it anyway. You don't have to explain your path to any negative folks. Besides, they can't understand it. By diving deep into your art forever, you will always see what others can't see. A.I. can't teach them that without them knowing they can't see the details and then connections an artist sees. Use A.I. for the tedious stuff you already know how to do. A.I. is nothing new. It's another light bulb.

[@Covingsworth]

Really good insight and motivation, thanks for sharing

[@shoaibakhtar4934]

THANKS UwU

[@JosephDalrymple]

This is exactly what I tell my kids. AI is great at assisting me with mundane tasks (like boilerplating out a class or something), but it's not a replacement for honing your skills and becoming better in every way possible. An analog for AI is cheating on a test. Why is cheating on a test bad? Because the test is supposed to be a marker for your abilities up to that point, and what areas you need to focus on to get better. Cheating on a test robs you of the opportunity figure out how you can get better. AI is no different than a calculator. If you use it to cheat, it'll rob you. But that doesn't mean you can't use it as a tool to make things a little easier, especially when you've already grown past it in certain areas that you're using it in.

[@WolfieDesigns]

Thanks for the tutorial! 2:40 Graswald is now free for everyone (all the premium stuff too)

[@tirthv6746]

Exactly, that's such a huge news

[@wizhard2768]

where I download it? I tried to use some that I found online but it doesn't work

[@savire.ergheiz]

No tutorial though just blabbering of losing to AI 😂

[@puneetshakya3001]

I didn't even noticed that was a deer zombie but damm the work loved it. I would love to see such tutorials on the channel please do

[@cgboost]

Fantastic work, Cov! Love the final result and all the great advice you gave, very inspirational. 👏

[@Covingsworth]

[@saundaryavarekar4545]

Was here 6 months ago getting absolutely amazed by seeing what other fellow 3D artists are creating, which honestly made me a bit insecure about me not working as hard as you guys. But now after 6 whole months I'm here watching it again after learning every possible thing to make a short film (scene) of my own. Brother I'm truly greatful to you for encouraging me to step of my comfort zone to learn the necessary skills n get better. Thank you Brother!! ~Fellow 3d Artists

[@Mind_Splitter]

Love the ideology of the planning process with breaking it down beforehand.

[@Darkvictorious]

Awesome work! Piece of unasked advice: Set the deer closer. At the first time of watching the animation, I didn't notice it was a deer with ribs showing instead I thought he was scared by the immediate appearance of the deer.

[@EpicWarrior131]

The "is this worth it if Ai is gonna replace me?" and "is it really ok for me to use this in my world if i didn't create it?" are both things i grappled with recently learing UE5 to make games. I like how you brought them up and tried to address them.

[@luckykraken5835]

i love your takes on, your internal struggles and your resolutions for them!

[@YoureMadBozo71]

genuinely, thank you for this tutorial. Picked up a couple of mental things watching it, like the priorities or the ai scare segment

[@Zetornator]

i never expected some Cov ASMR-like audio on these awesome Blender tutorials !

[@Theoriginaldrog]

Before applying the geometry nodes as shown in 5:06, apply the scale of the plane by pressing ctrl+A, otherwise the grass, moss, etc. will scale with the plane

[@Digitalrogues]

what a great breakdown that goes beyond the tech hows and thinks about the bigger picture. and all this info is easily adaptable to other apps like Unreal Engine

[@karthikditya4297]

Man please keep making videos all of your works are very high quality.

[@vi4dofficial]

Bro this is something huge . awsome, if you post this video alone no one find the difference , realistic

[@Tomy_Yon]

That torch part was so real!

[@heckensteiner4713]

Amazing tutorial! And I totally agree with this part at 9:15. I used to be against stock assets, but my mind has completely changed after thousands upon thousands of hours of working in 3D. The way I see it is if the scope of your project is bigger than the object(s) you're using and the object is obtained legally and credited properly (just like you did here) then there's absolutely no shame in using it! Now I only custom model the things that I know don't exist or that I know I can do better. Also, stock assets are used all the time on even the biggest productions.

[@Covingsworth]

Absolutely!

[@theeddytor3490]

i like your approach where before you begin, have a picture in your mind, take a reference, dissect them in to list before you open blender. many times most (including me) would open blender then see block and we get our brain BLOCKED. where my imagine should start, what do i need, should i start house wait no lets build environment. at the end we do get the results we are looking for if u are dedicated but at the cost of losing more time.

[@ChrisCook_3D]

Sound is also fantastic!

[@DECODEDVFX]

Great video mate.

[@Covingsworth]

Appreciate it man!!

thank you!!

[@sally_vfx]

This Video is filled with valuable information, straight to the point. Amazing work 🙌.

[@antoinedon9160]

Excellent tutorial to actually CREATE a big looking environement. Props to you, keep it up, not like theses blender-youtuber who usually just talk about stuff they can't realize in blender

[@nniitchh]

This is a great overview with some decent tips here and there, and the creative idea of the time shift as a horror effect is really fantastic.

[@Covingsworth]

Thanks!

[@subdgaming406]

Welcome back man, hoping to see you more often

[@lgoritme]

super complete workflow, thank's

[@VFXExperts-ny1lb]

[@xannyfrommars1897]

I just came across this channel. Rest assured, you could never be replaced

[@81sw0le]

I love how people who create tutorial just glaze right over extremely key point to to finish the actual tutorial. Something that would take less than 20 seconds to explain just completely omitted.

[@zenco7936]

Great scene, im newish to blender and it's good to see what more professional users can do.

Someone is back. The geo nodes setup is so good! Will be using it in the future.

[@ZigguratYT]

Just found you through Instagram and I wanted to say how much I've enjoyed your videos. I'm trying to get back into blender and improve my skills and these tutorials have been really helpful since I've struggled with environments before. Keep up the amazing content!

[@Covingsworth]

Thank you so much! I'm really glad you're enjoying it all :)

[@Gmango10]

I learned so much more than just some blender things

The fact that Plant library is free is just mad!

[@ctw4004]

Finally, you woke up.

[@Covingsworth]

🧑‍🦲👋

[@EMB3D]

I feel you about AI. I dont see full replacement but defintely narrows down the field. Some of your skills are replaced but not all. You can focus on other tasks now within the field you had no time for.

[@extrider69]

best video of the year in my feed.

[@sunrisexsky6633]

The scene is wonderful and I really loved it but Apart from all these I really loved your intellectual talk just like what you said at 9:40 open my thoughts and self doubts I was having as a 3D Artist. Much appreciated ❤

[@Covingsworth]

Ah I'm glad you liked it, thank you

[@kristianaia]

A.I. is terrifying to me as I enter this field, I'm studying Animation and Game Art in college now and it makes me so happy but I'm scared of there being no jobs in a decade or so

[@vyskochill487]

Finally algorithm got me some excellent video I needed. Thank you for valuable info, I am definitely going to use some of the tips in my graduational movie!

[@Covingsworth]

Thanks so much! I'd love to see the movie when you are finished

[@hutnerr]

Dude thats crazy. if you only threw the final vid up on twitter or sumn, i'd have been scouring the screen for the playstion tag or that "captured in game" foot note. this looks like some triple A horror game cutscene or announcement trailer

[@mohanpugaz]

This is amazing work and the walk through is so much helpful., the higher fps made it feeling like game environment. I'm sure this would look even better with 24 fps with right motion blur.

[@pilotdawn1661]

Saw the short on this - Subscribed right then. Looking forward you're future work. Great presentation. Leaned Blender 2 years ago, got rusty and now relearning. Thanks for your videos.

Hey, can you explain in 4:05 you have geometrynode > geometry node > moss_2 I don't know how to do this 😐

[@kriselt]

same, I am not sure how to add multiple layers of plants on the same plane....anyone? EDIT: just select the same plane and add a new Geometry nodes modifier, and use another plant in that one, with the same nodes setup as in the previous one :))

How do you do the 2nd instance at the same time? [4:05]

Im struggling even on the donut. Cant even imagine this

[@JerielordPlays]

then, you should already quit the youtube tutorials and get a trainer(This is what i did)

Although some people didn't understand tutorials given you can't get the back and forth a tutor can be quite expensive especially for a new comer

[@Markkxd]

@@asapuzzi im in no need for a tutor. I can follow the tutorials a-okay, just need time. The ecosystem is very different to video editing programms i mainly work in.

super impressive!

great environment design especially for blender. although i would say itd look better if the plants had a little motion. I'm currently developing an add-on which will procedurally deform plant meshes to simulate wind i hope you may use it someday great stuff
