Whether you're completely new to the world of 3D graphics, switching to Blender 3D from another 3D Software, or a rusty returning hero from the 2.5 days, the Blender Basics will guide you through your first steps in Blender 4.x.
We'll cover all of the essential features that you'll need to know in order to build your very first Blender model.
Why learn Blender 3D?
Blender 3D is the fastest growing 3d suite in the world. In 2022, it was downloaded +17 million times and it's now backed (sponsored) by some of the biggest companies in the world - including Adobe, Facebook, and Epic Games.
Blender 3D is an essential tool for 3D creators around the world and has become the leading alternative to extremely expensive programs like Maya and Max.
What a great tutorial. I'm coming from another 3D software and this was a great refresher to build my confidence with Blender. I was happy to see some of the interface lessons towards the end, where so many other basics courses begin with it, and you're left with not really understanding why they matter.
I love the short lesson length, and intro and endings. Heh, I even found myself humming the music used throughout the course.
Anyways, worth the watch and I'm looking forward to PRESS START.
I've only recently picked up Blender and have watched the Blender 3.0 class here. It was amazing how easy to learn it feels with Jonathan's pace and flow. I'm done several other courses by now and they all felt easy because of the great foundation this course sets.
I recently subscribed to CG Cookie to keep on learning, but wanted to watch this one again to pick up on any differences. I'm particularly impressed that a couple of times he even mentions what's coming up on the next iterations of version 4. Way to future proof the class!
Definitely recommend this one for anyone picking it up for the first time, or needing a reminder on a couple of basics.
