This is an edited version of the stream with limited rabit trails, chat interaction, and flubs. Also don't forget that speeding up the playback is a wondering tool for watching long-form videos!
If you're like me, a few years ago you tried volumetric rendering with Cycles. And after waiting 30 seconds for your computer to calculate 1/100 samples, you cancelled the render and never tried it again. The fact is volumetrics are extremely complex to calculate and sloooooow to render.
Until Eevee! Volumetrics in Eevee shocked me the moment I heard it was a feature and I have to say they're quite competent. Finally we can edit volumetrics quickly. Sure you lose some authenticity but it's well worth adding this tool to your Blender utility belt.
In this stream we will focus our creativity toward clouds, starting with a simple cloud chunk first and then trying out a larger "cloudscape":
Omar, there are not many people on streets at this evening. It is very cold and people stay indoors. It is 6:48 pm. and it is pitch dark.
Santo Domingo
Where is that again?
It is a third world country here
It is not safe, too much robbery, specially at night
that sounds nice Omar
See you later, Rita
I would be shocked if you said that here in my country, but I guess in Ireland that is ok
I'm going to pack up and head home in the dark. I'll be at home in time for the stream.
