A quick reference guide for commonly used hotkeys in Blender can help you work more efficiently.
We’ll start you off with a brief overview of Blender and introduce you to the world of 3D by demonstrating how to navigate and work with objects.
Things will start to really take off as you learn numerous ways to edit objects, many of them easier than you might expect! We’ll tackle instancing, advanced transforms, basic modeling tools, and much MUCH more!
Lastly, you'll learn the basics of each of the main areas of Blender, from animation to sculpting, as well as how to set yourself up for success going forward.
Extremely helpful, easy to understand, and most of all enjoyable! As someone who just started using software like this, the tutorials, explanations, and keybinds on screen made my understanding of each lesson much smoother and allowed me to make lots of notes on specifics! Thanks so much!
Thank you very much for this clear, informative, and very enjoyable course.
Best foundational course for blender I have come across, do this a few times and blender will no longer look so scary as it does when you start.
I very glad I found this course, it is well-structured, easy to follow, thank you!
You are SO welcome! This is exactly how I designed it - so that you can return and reference specific topics. I am glad it has been of good use like this!
Thank you so much for this course. It refreshed my knowledge. Even if you're familiar with Blender, you should definitely watch it.
I already knew the basic controls before watching this, but this was an excellent detailed refresher, and I even learned a couple things other tutorials missed.
Thank you Paul and the entire team at CGCookie for the great job with this Blender Basics 4.5 course. I've been using Blender for almost 4 years now and have followed a lot of tutorials during this time. This is the first basics course I've taken and there were actually some stuff that I hadn't heard about before. I'll probably be rewatching some of the lessons later on.
Thank you for this course. I tried many times to learn how to use Blender but each time i stepped down because i followed courses too cryptic or too superficial to really understand what i was trying to learn or to keep my interest. This introduction is very well balanced, not only i felt that i understanded everything but it made me eager to learn way more.
An excellent introduction to Blender. I highly recommend it.
