When the goal of a project is to produce an animation for architecture, we may need to use a render farm to speed up the render and be able to deliver the files without blow the deadline. If you don’t have a render farm in your office or school, a good option will be to […]
After a really long period without producing any video tutorials, finally I got back with a new set of software and hardware to produce new videos. And yesterday I made a quick test with this new software and worked on a quick video. The video shows in a quick way, how to use the Spin […]
With every new Blender Open Movie project we can expect lost of new tools developed to help the team working on the animation, and most of the time those tools are aimed on character animation. But, on the new open movie project that will use live action the guys from the Blender Institute will probably […]
Here we go again with another example of how to create furniture models in Blender, this time the subject of the tutorial is a kitchen sink. The tutorial I found yesterday shows the process of creation a kitchen sink with Blender 2.5, and unfortunately it is in time-lapse format. Even with the accelerated speed, we […]
The process of creating a library to use on architectural visualization projects is really time-consuming, because we usually don`t have a clue about the type of furniture that will be necessary for a project, until we get the project. This is one of the reasons I`m always looking for new models to add on my […]
There are a lot of tools in Blender that help us to create architectural visualization, but some of them may add another layer of productivity, even for schools that teach architecture. In the last releases of Blender 2.4x a tool called grease pencil was added to allow animators to create notes and sketch over a […]
When we have to create a scene that uses lots of objects to represent objects like grass or leaves, we end up with a high load on our systems, making the process of rendering the scene really difficult and time consuming. One of the solutions for this problem is the use of instancing for rendering, […]
The use of cutout images to represent trees and people in architectural visualization is quite common, and is by far the best way to add vegetation and people to a project. If you keep track of the articles and tutorials of the blog, you may remember that in the past I have already posted a […]
