Blender Tutorial: How To Make Cinematic Landscape Animation In Blender

Welcome to a very exiting video! In this Blender in-depth course you will learn how to create a cinematic landscape animation in Blender. As the developer team behind Blender has focused on ’Everything nodes’ in the last few iterations of Blender, I decided to set myself the challenge of creating a complete project in Blender using nodes (as much as possible) in addition to non-destructive techniques to see how far I would get before hitting limitations. This course is the answer to that challenge. We will be creating our final cinematic landscape animation from scratch including assets and the course will cover every step-by-step process in detail. Our goal is to complete everything in this project using nothing but Blender and it’s standard built-in functunality. This course will be suitable for intermediate Blender users. It will also benefit users switching to Blender from other 3D applications. __________________________________________________ Container Drone Model Course Project File Course Assets Support me on Patreon: Horror Environment Tutorial: More Tutorials: __________________________________________________ Chapter Markers: 00:00:00 Why this Course? 00:02:31 Preparing Blender For Project 00:03:48 Animating Drone Container 00:12:55 Creating Pine Tree 00:16:44 Creating Bare Pine Tree 00:17:06 Creating Aspen Tree 00:18:19 Creating Douglas Tree 00:20:25 Converting Tree Mesh 00:21:44 Creating ’Tree_Bark_001’ Material 00:35:21 Creating ’Tree_Bark_002’ Material 00:42:59 Creating ’Tree_Bark_Moss’ Material 00:55:39 Creating Procedural Material For Pine Tree 01:03:32 Colour Variation For Extra Realism 01:10:33 Creating ’Leaf_001’ Material 01:23:46 Why Translucency Matters For Realism 01:26:42 Creating ’Leaf_002’ Material 01:30:14 Creating Rock Mesh 01:33:56 Creating Master Material For Rocks 01:48:03 Creating Material for Rock #2 01:51:35 Creating Material For Rock #3 01:54:57 Final Clean-up For Rock Assets 01:55:37 Creating Procedural Animated Water 02:02:36 Creating Alien Ellipsoid Object 02:05:39 Creating Mountains 02:28:51 Preparing Objects For Scattering 02:31:40 Building Scattering System with Geometry Nodes 02:49:30 Material Displacement For Assets 02:50:39 Developing Animation-Based Scatter System 03:11:36 Adjusting Camera For Animation 03:13:04 Creating Distant Mountains And Spawning Particles 03:28:30 Geomtery Nodes Terrain Creation 03:57:15 Blocking-Out 3D Scene 04:00:33 Camera Spawn System For Procedural Geometry 04:09:30 Adding Lake To Scene 04:14:53 Alien Ellipsoid Procedural Texturing 04:30:52 Alien Ellipsoid Animation 04:41:00 Creating Atmospheric Fog 04:48:02 Creating Atmospheric Mist Clouds 05:03:02 Animating and Adjusting Cine-Cam System 05:16:19 Bringing Container Drone In 3D Scene 05:18:31 Animating Container Drone Path 05:22:59 Preparing Project For Render 05:26:41 Cinematic Compositing Techniques In Blender 05:46:04 Goodbye! __________________________________________________ Pine Needles Reference Image: Royalty Free Licence: __________________________________________________ Free Drone Model Alternatives: __________________________________________________ Music from Youtube Library: Annihilate - Jeremy Blake ___________________________________________________ #blender3d #blendertutorial #Procedural
