1:05 – 2:05 Revisiting Blender
We will be using Blender a lot this semester. For some of you – that is what you have been waiting for, others, not so much.
Since there are varying levels in the room, let’s tackle a couple of projects this afternoon and share our experience with each other.
Here is a link to Blender 2.81a Manual for your reference.
Blender Option 1 – easiest
Follow the link and tackle some of the tutorials. (extensive playlist)
I recommend looking at videos 2 and 3 about viewport navigation and interface overview to get familiar with Blender 2.81 which is way different than 2.79. Then move on to Blender Option 2
Blender Option 2
Tackle an original design, on your own. This is just for fun, it does not entirely matter what it is. Things you should practice:
- learning shortcut keys
- adding & creating objects
- multi-object editing
- scaling, rotating, moving
- 3D cursor to place and pivot objects
- toggling views with number pad
- materials properties
- basic Blender modifiers
- lighting
- test out eevee and cycles rendering
Show your design in the Dailies
