Strangely enough, just messing around is sometime the better way to learn. A lot of people have a project in mind and never work on it because it is above their ability level. Where modeling or practicing just for the sake of practice and fun can be a more productive way to consistently improve.

I've been doing 3D for 20+ year and I think this is some great advice. When I was younger always wanted to run before I could walk, that was a big mistake, even now I think I still have this mentality, like if I want to make a level design I'll start way too big instead of working on a room or even smaller a corner space. It's about building up ones own artist confidence , start small and build yourself up to bigger , harder challenges. Same advice for anyone who wants to be a character artist, maybe not work on an entire character from head to toe, start with a body part like the nose, eyes, then move on to sculpting an entire head, then move on to sculpting the entire body.

No key frames used whatsoever!Took me weeks to get it just the way I liked it. After sharing it with an online community, it received constructive criticism right off the bat. This made me so angry for some reason, and I found myself lashing out at their response. There was no immediate consequence for me at that moment, but it haunts me, because I know I’m better than that.

Ego is a big issue for me. I feel pretty worthless most of the time so presenting creative works is one of the few ways to help me feel like I'm contributing something of value and I have been so very fortunate that so far the few things I've put out have been complimented ... but that too has a negative drawback as I feel it is easy to become too dependant on it, it's such a delicate balance of allowing yourself to feel pleased without becoming too prideful or dependant on praise. Others expectations such as people saying you should try to make a game or you should try to make something for them etc add to stress if that isn't the area you're focusing on so that very first tip regarding focus is a great one and one to remind yourself of every now and then, whether that be just to maintain that vision when others lead you astray or to re-examine after learning more and discovering additional areas of interest that warrant focus.

The more you share, the more you and everyone else will learn. This is progress. MrBeast said to do this for KZitem videos: work with friends and share what does and doesn't work. Then, you learn at a greater speed. Apply that knowledge to everything. Especially 3D.

I know lots of 3D people who suck at drawing. Sure, it can help, but it won’t hold you back. Don’t worry about that. As far as Blender vs. Houdini, I’d say learn Houdini if you don’t mind the learning curve and want to work in VFX. Learn Blender if you want to make stuff quickly and do it as a hobby for free (studios are picking it up but not like Maya and Houdini yet.) They are both awesome pieces of software and have pros and cons to each. I love and use both.

two points i disagree on: Right in the beginning you say to "Fokus on one Topic" which .. isn't nessecarly true that you learn 'nothing'. It's more like: That is the Specialists way. On the other hand there are many amazing generalists out there having learnd many topics and getting a wide overview over the processes. It's not bad even as a specialist to broaden that horizon but like the generalist never beats a specialist in one topic, the specialist never gets that perspective of the generalist. so its a tradeof and should be considered. The way you state it its not really constructive advice. secondly calling out 20 Years of 3D is some real bragging/clickbait. It says nothing over the quality of that knowledge. I have 27 years of Thinking and Learning under my Belt - still don't get a Ph.D for that, cause its something i do since i'm born. I know building up a viewerbase is important on youtube, but i really dislike seeing things like that - so ... im writing it down here ;D
@KevBinge

Fair enough. You spent the time to write a well-meaning book here, so I’ll spend time to defend my points as it’s relevant and will allow me to explain my position and methodology a bit. 1. If you scatter as a generalist, generally speaking, you don’t focus ENOUGH in anything to get competent at that one thing. That one thing then ties into all the other things you’d do as a generalist. It’s all symbiotic in that regard. By focusing on one thing at a time, you have the capacity to commit it to memory and really learn it. That doesn’t mean that’s ALL you ever do, it means that you understand something well enough through focus to move on to the next thing. It’s iterative and pedagogical. Scattered multi-tasking is ok once in a while but can lead to frustration and burnout. That’s why I stay the course with focusing. 2. Your point that saying 20 years is “bragging” and clickbait, and doesn’t equate to the quality. I have 20 years of experience as a paid 3D generalist. 4 in teaching college level, 20 freelance, and 15 unbroken employment as a paid 3D generalist. I have faith in the “quality” of what I’m talking about. This is the Internet, so of course you are entitled to your opinion, but 27 years of thinking doesn’t equate. It’s false equivalency. Other than that you took the time to write and seem like a cool guy so thanks for that and I hope you’re staying healthy, as that’s what really matters now 😀

Thanks for watching! I think at the moment, Blender isn’t used in too many studios. That IS changing, but will most likely be a side tool like ZBrush or WorldMachine. There are a few studios around the world using it for their pipeline, but if you are chasing a job, right now Maya is still the king. Max is there too in studios like Blur and FuseFX, and Houdini is gaining ground but still a niche thing. The good news is that you can take your Blender skills, then buy Maya Indie for cheap and transfer your Blender skills to Maya relatively painlessly in my experience. (I went the other way from Maya to Blender, and found Blender to be really fun.). Does that help?

One big thing I don't like is at about 5:05. Don't compare yourself to others. Compare your former self to who you are today. If you compare yourself always with other people it'll only hurt you in the long run. Because there is and always will be people better than you. Always.

Thank you so much!!! I've started my 3D journey in Blender on and off for typography and a step up from 2D graphic design or product renders and I really appreciate your advice! Especially the components about focusing on learning one thing at a time and building from there, trying to balance learning too many different parts all at once is overwhelming so that reminder to focus is so crucial, especially for beginners like me. I really appreciate the effort! Also, i love the projects on your instagram!

This has to be the most valuable advice that you can get. He pretty much nails why most of us (including myself) haven't been able to grow from a beginner phase in 3d Modelling. For me, the problem has been focus, attention and time. For those of us who already have a job and family, it is harder to get those 3 inline. And yes, having some basics in art ( drawing, photography, etc) truly helps. Thank you for speaking the truth on this subject.
@KevBinge
4 жыл бұрын
Oh yeah! Having adult responsibilities like a job, family and kids definitely cuts into the time you can spend learning. That’s where focus and time management really help! It’s an order of magnitude more difficult to do this while balancing life and others depending on you for sure!

I need unbiased , friendly advice from you. I know we are strangers to each other. But the way you talk ( easy going way and very well articulated , well informed person). I did my education in 3d & vfx in 1998. Worked on some 3d projects in my institute but majored in compositing. It has been more than a decade, i have been away from field due to house compulsions. Long story short, what side I should go to now?? 3d arch or vfx ?? Please guide me as you do to your younger brother. I am from India.
@KevBinge
2 жыл бұрын
I can’t really give out advice as everyone’s path is different in life. That said, both VFX and architecture have nice future potential, and can both be extremely rewarding. My personal opinion is that architecture can be more stable “if” here are projects. Interior design would have more volume. VFX is in a growth spurt right now as streaming is a worldwide demand. It’s grueling and crazy but does have that “sex” appeal. I wrote this ebook that might help: kevbcg.gumroad.com/l/LpWCWO Its free and may help point you in a good direction, maybe even one you hadn’t though of yet.

Be a problem solver don’t try to control the art let it flow and have fun learning. Creativity comes when you don’t overthink but do think on the things you’d want to learn. You’re not a god so don’t worry if it’s not perfect. Stay humbled but don’t let it tie with vanity and pride.
