BC1-1801: Week 1 - First time with Blender...overwhelmed yet?
Live Stream Host: Kent Trammell
crew- Software:Blender 2.79 ·
- Difficulty:Beginner
This event is part of the January 2018 Class, "Getting Started with 3D Modeling & Blender".
To kick-off the beginner-oriented Class, we're simply opening Blender and getting comfortable with it. We’ve all been there: Opening Blender (or any 3D package) for the first time, gazing at the crazy UI, trying to orbit in the viewport, crying...Ok, maybe you were stronger than me and didn’t cry. But the reality is 3D software is daunting. There’s SO MUCH to digest especially when you’re a beginner.
This stream coincides with the Blender Basics course. We're going to overview Blender and 3D from an absolutely beginner perspective. What is Blender for? What can it do? Wait, this isn’t a juicing seminar?
We’re also going to open the floor, ask me anything (AMA) style, so I can answer all your questions about getting started with Blender.

nvm, found it. sorry
if you do a Google Image Search for Blender cheat sheets you can find some good ones.
where do I change zoom direction?
On OS X it used to interfere with the F-keys. There's an option to require the function key for OS F-key shortcuts.
It's on a windows box
:D
Omar -- don't poke the bear. lol
I ran into an issue with me new computer, is that some installed programs were overriding the Blender hot keys.
* I forgot to turn on my screen cast keys* Kent in every tutorial
Thanks Mr. Lampel, I"ll go with Cycles.
fflowizard Working on a course for exactly that as we speak!
One thing I feel was missing for blender introduction was the general 3d terms/knowledge... like normals, pivot, origin points, alpha, good topology. Is there any good resource that helps with stuff like that?
No I am not a TOTAL Noob :D
