What is Grease Pencil and What is it Used for

[@dominickisidore5180]

Grease pencil gets me soo excited for bringing life to my 2D drawings and paintings!

[@TorQueMoD]

Blender should pay you to make this their official Grease Pencil pitch video. I was amazed to see they don't have a Features Overview video on their official channel, just some demor eels which doesn't tell you anything about why you should use the program! Thanks so much for this :)

Honestly the sculpt mode and noise modifier alone have saved me ages of time on a few assignments. (Also, for any professional 2D work, I _strongly_ suggest getting a graphics tablet like a Wacom-they last forever and make a world of difference over a mouse.)

Is there a single comprehensive learning path or syllabus that you recommend for Grease Pencil? I have been learning blender by bouncing around KZbin and diving into whatever shiny tutorial catches my attention, I love it, it is so much fun. Am wondering though if perhaps I could be more effective if I took a more structured sequential approach, at least with 2D since I'm finally just getting started on it? Thanks.

Marco Bucci's channel has a 3d environment for 2d animation playlist which helps understand most of grease pencil, I'd recommend checking it out.

[@powersprouter]

@@dovatard Thank you! I shall.

[@basiccomponents]

This explanation is amazing, thank you!

[@opangates]

this was a very informative video thank you !

[@SpicyAl3000]

Great! Thanks :)

[@sergehulne]

Is there a step-by-step course on Grease Pencil for Blender (beginner level) ?

[@Tikidancer]

Hii, thanks for the tuto🤝 does it take long to render 2d in blender?? (With grease pencil??

[@RobinRhombus2]

You've likely already found the answer by now but in case you haven't, it really just depends on the hardware.

[@thepms7694]

what computer application

[@playbackinthenextback9034]

Nice

[@alreadydead3015]

Can you suggest Grease pencil alternative for Ipad

[@gamerx459]

Is there any free sources to learn it for beginners?

[@InspirationTuts2D]

Start with KZbin tutorials.

[@SnailSpaceWTF]

Whose Channel do you reference for video at 5:15?

[@playbackinthenextback9034]

Wowo

[@gisl2159]

Wait.. blender was free?

[@jaimeflores4683]

Always will be, is open source.

[@whitedevil8827]

This can possible in Android

[@lordmeistersexy]

nah bro

[@missekevu33]

Blender biggest flaw for me is redrawing my work. I do not like the idea of having to redraw my work into a 3rd or 4th platform just for the sake of movement. I should simply be able to upload the image. If it’s not that simple, all these pros are pointless

[@itzzrakharpbrio6938]

I still cant see any benefit in grease pencil

[@luytyg2782]

Yes not like toon boom or moho

[@mageco5804]

what about drawing references for your 3d art?

@@mageco5804 what about rig the chrcther

[@JustVoidzzz]

really what I've found useful with it is the fact that you don't just have a good 2d animation program but also the power of blender. Blender has alot built in like 3d modeling and texturing, rigging, compositing(vfx), particle systems, and more all built in. You can do things like do Npr(Non-photorealistic rendering) to make 3d objects look 2d, rig your grease pencil objects like in toonboom, use a particle system for rain snow or dust, and more all in one software. Though what comes with this is the fact that grease pencil can be unintuative to use and learn. You have to approach it kinda like a 3d software than a 2d one and it takes a while to get used to. Personally I really like the fact that I can 3d model a full scene with a 3d camera on it, animate my character, and add vfx with compositing all in one software and all for free.
