For the first time in a long time, I'm doing some kind of different stuff in Blender, not my usual VFX stuff. It's refreshing and fun! Also starting to explore Friction2D a bit. #b3d #notVFX #friction2d


It's the last week for this INCREDIBLE Blender training bundle. For $30 dollars, you get 30 complete courses! $1 per course and it covers almost everything! It includes my compositing course in @cgcookie CORE Fundamentals #b3d #vfx superhivemarket.com/products/best-…

Amazing how well #GeoTracker works in @Blender! This took about 45 minutes to track 250 frames of #stopmotion footage. The head geo was the same used to #3Dprint the #puppet head. @keen_tools @dragonframe #animation #animatorlife #animator #charliekelly @alwayssunny #b3d


Los Angeles Blender meeting tomorrow at Culver City Library at 10:30am, then going for pizza/beverages afterwards! If you're here in LA, please come! Bring a USB drive with projects or demo files if you want to present your work. We always have fun! #b3d meetup.com/los-angeles-bl…

This course by @inlightvfx looks great! I haven't seen any of it, but that won't stop me from recommending it! It's nice to see he's going to cover all the on-set equipment as well as the computer end of VFX. #b3d #vfx #compositing

The Kickstarter for my Blender VFX course ends in less than 24 hours so this is your last chance to get 40% off the course! Thank you to the 475+ backers who have helped make the campaign such a huge success!! 🎉🪅 kickstarter.com/projects/inlig…

This is pretty cool!

Goodbye cell fracture..



Wow, ok, I finally get it. Gaussian splatting is pretty dang cool!! I've tested Reality Capture for regular photogrammetry, and Kiri Engine for both photogrammetry and 3DGS. I'm loving Kiri Engine! #VFX #kiriengine

Just a quick reminder that CORE is on sale right now! It's a HUGE course, and I tackled the compositing fundamentals for it. Have you watched it already? What did you think? #b3d blendermarket.com/products/core-…

I'm actually getting usable smoke out of Blender 4.2. It's had some bugs in the smoke tools for a long, long time, but just doing a nice, simple smoke seems to be working nicely. #b3d #vfx

CORE is here! At 31 hours, I'm unaware of a more comprehensive curriculum recorded with a consistent, brand new #b3d version. Super proud to be part of the team that made this happen! Full Trailer: youtu.be/GpWP4neg_sU CORE page: cgcookie.com/core RT's appreciated🙏

It's finally released today! CORE Fundamentals is available now on @blendermarket and @cgcookie ! It's a huge course, and I'm excited to hear what people think of it (although it'll probably take people a while to get to the compositing part, haha!). #VFX #b3d #compositing

Only a few more days to finish up this course! I had a lot of fun working with the practice footage from @ActionVFX . This is a fundamentals course, but there'll be a few tricks in there even if you're an advanced user! #b3d #VFX @cgcookie Only a couple more days to pre-order!

If you want flexibility to adjust your render in compositing, then you'll love the course I'm finishing up! I cover just about every way possible to split up everything and anything in your scene so you can tweak it later! Dropping next week! #b3d #vfx #compositing @cgcookie
