Spaceship Fly By - Blender Animation Tutorial ("Get on with it" Edition)

[@Mjfox3145]

This is exactly the type of shot that I want to do in Blender, so am trying to follow as best I can.. watch 5 seconds, watch same 5 seconds, click on my build. Undo, re click using correct settings. Watch 5 seconds, rewatch 5 seconds, click on my build, undo, re kick on my build having spotted my mistake, watch another 5 seconds….. rinse and repeat. We’re getting there though. 👍

Anything in particular you need assistance on let me know. Twitter (joepavitt3d) is best for that kind of help

[@joepavitt3d]

If it helps, I remember doing a CG Geek lightsaber tutorial as my first ever project in Blender. His 90 minute tutorial took me 14 hours

[@montumeroe9593]

Thank you for your hard work.

[@joepavitt3d]

Thanks for watching!

[@josephk.9567]

awesome stuff! Make more please!

[@joepavitt3d]

I certainly plan to, but had a baby arrive 4 months ago, so been a tad distracted!

[@josephk.9567]

@@joepavitt3d A few months and he'll feel like learning Blender aswell...

@@joepavitt3d Congrats!!

[@Argyle302]

Great tutorial ( so far ). Stuck at 9:41. How did you get your image of the Earth into a "Group" from which you could then select it in Shade Editor?

[@joepavitt3d]

I used an Add-On, should be the first one in the list in the description of the video, hope that helps

[@jeffdavies2824]

Nice work. I have to do space flybys frequently for my animated series and you have a number of good tips in this video that I will put into practice ASAP. I also like your use of the compositing editor to really help with the final product.

[@joepavitt3d]

Glad to hear it's helpful. Good luck with your series!

[@SowmyaGanesan-d8l]

great tutorial! but the add-on link for the earth texture downloads as a .blend file, how do we import that here?

[@joepavitt3d]

In Blender, you should be able to choose the "File > Append" option, then you can dig into that .blend file and choose the particular piece you want to import

[@vasili55-t5h]

Hi. Which version of Blender do you use? This Sketchfab Blender Plugin: Which version does it work on?

[@joepavitt3d]

This was recorded on Blender 3.4 if I recall correctly. It should work on all Blender 3.x versions. You can always download the file directly from SketchFab and import the raw file if the plugin doesn't work.

[@brunoriyuoficial]

Good

[@adamrutz6655]

I cant find the plugin you used to do the surface?

[@joepavitt3d]

Links in the description, exact one you're looking for is: lassef.gumroad.com/l/JlNTt?recommended_by=library

[@PufferBlue]

I cant figure out the surface part like where is that

[@joepavitt3d]

The assets are linked to in the description of the video. It uses a 3rd party (free) plugin.

[@M.I.F..]

...and you are really PROUD of this TEACHING someone? 😂

[@murph329]

jesus dude, great video, but you need to slow down with your workflow for people to accurately follow better. Within the first 5 minutes, I've had to pause and replay countless times to keep in sync with you.

[@joepavitt3d]

Thanks for the feedback. This is labelled as a "Get on with it" tutorial. I didn't get round to making a beginners tutorial as it just stretched too long. My others (and more soon to be published) are always duplicated. 1 x "Beginner" and 1 x "Get on with it" edition for every tutorial.

Sometimes I will decrease the playback speed to 0.75 or even 0.5. Sounds funny but definitely helpful

[@entheospa4543]

Slower and speak clearly please

[@joepavitt3d]

Thanks for the feedback, did have this labelled as a "Get on with it" Edition, so it is going through this fairly fast. Will do my best to speak clearer next time round
