If you're a complete beginner to Blender, welcome.

This video series will show you how to create this scene here, some donuts and some coffee,

whilst also walking you through some of Blender's very basic features from a beginner's perspective.

So you'll go from being a complete beginner, like never having touched the software before, to understanding the very basics,

modeling, materials, lighting, and things like that.

So I know that you are probably busting to get started in Blender, but since this is part one,

I want to take 60 seconds to just quickly address what this video series will discuss and what it won't.

So Blender can do a lot of stuff, like too much stuff.

There's a lot of features here that only like a fringe group of people will ever use.

Like some people use Blender for like visualizing MRI scans, you know, and like the stuff that they use, like most people will never touch.

So if you're familiar with the 80 -20 rule, it's that 80 % of the results come from 20 % of the actions,

or in this case, in terms of software, they come from 20 % of its features.

So I believe that in 3D, the 20 % of features

that everybody uses regardless of whether you're in 3d printing vr visual effects animation any of

that stuff everybody uses modeling materials and lighting and

so that's that's the focus of this video series

it's to help you go from being a complete noob of blender to first of all understanding the interface

which is pretty important to modeling something creating a completely new

shape out of out of something else uh adding materials

and then adding lighting so once you learn this you can then create your next first scene

so um we're going to be going through the basics

and throughout this we're going to be also creating this scene as well

so you'll both be yeah learning blender from a new perspective whilst also working towards

this final image here uh of these donuts donuts

and a coffee um so this this is part one

so we're going to be doing just some very very basic stuff in this video um just moving around blender

and um you know just showing you the very introduction of the interface

but if you stick to the very end of this video just for something fun

because i know we're going through some dry stuff at the start

if you stick to the end

i'll show you how to create a fiery monkey head just as a little fun thing right for the end

there so if you haven't done it already, go to blender .org, download Blender and install it.

I won't show you how to do that because I don't want to insult your intelligence.

And also I'm pretty sure a lot of people have already done that.

So yeah, welcome to Blender.

Now, if you're itching to explore Blender, feel free, click all the buttons.

Because the good thing is, is that you can't really break it like maybe you let's say you change everything to the point

that like even the developers are like what did you do like it's unrecognizable from the default blender well

if you go to file new it restores the default layout

so blender like like you know like photoshop like

if you've used it and then like you change like a toolbar

or a panel or something like that

and you're like oh no where to go and

so you restart the program hoping that it'll come back again

and it doesn't uh well blend is not like that

so the layout isn't like isn't like say like like yeah like it's saved into the the file

so like yeah if you change the layout

or whatever you can just restore it by going back to your last file

or in this case the new scene so point being

if you're if you're if you're new to the software

and you want to check out like all the little features in

that like feel free like click everything

and then uh you know at the end of it you know

you can just uh yeah just start up a new scene

and uh fine and dandy so uh yeah so that's

that um so after you've done clicking around let's talk about what these different things are

so this area right here in front of you this is called the 3d viewport

and probably 95 of what you do in blender is done right here.

So if you're making a character, you do it here.

If you're modeling a car, you do it here.

If you're building a scene, you do it here.

Yeah, this area here is, it does a lot.

So yeah, that's what this area is right here.

Now on the right hand side, all these little buttons here, these are called, this is called the properties, properties panel, properties area.

And this is where you generally change information of the 3D viewport

so like for example this cube here like oh my goodness that'd be the wife I'll answer that one later

I'll be fine.

Uh, so with this cube here, like say I went to the, uh, that should be on do not disturb.

I don't understand the iPhone.

Uh, if you selected the cube and you went to the materials panel and you made that color there red,

Hey, lo and behold, it's made the cube red.

So that's just an example.

Like, yeah, the stuff that you change that you do here in the 3d viewport, you can change it in the properties panel.

Okay.

So that's the basics of that.

Um, now moving around in the 3d viewport is done with your middle mouse button

so if you click and hold that in you are now orbiting

so we are now sort of rotating around 360 degrees um of your scene

now this this orbiting function i remember

when i first started it was very like there were times

when i was like i did that

and i'm like oh what's going on everything is upside down and it was like ah so jarring so

So the thing to remember is if you get into an area like you're like, I don't know where I am,

you can use the, on your number pad, if you hit seven, that takes you to,

oh, actually, I should make sure I turn on my screen keys tool so you can actually see what I'm pushing there.

Okay.

If you hit number pad seven, that takes you to the top.

If you hit number pad one, that takes you to the front.

If you hit number pad three, takes you to the side.

Okay.

So seven, one, and three.

By the way, if you're on a laptop right now and you don't happen to have a number pad, shame on you.

Get yourself a laptop with a number pad.

No, I know.

I got a MacBook Air and it's the same.

So if you are on a laptop, just go to File, User Preferences, and then underneath

Input, click Emulate Number Pad.

And also, if you wanted to emulate your, like, what's it called?

Like the middle mouse button you could click emulate three button mouse

100

and then you control left click and then you'll do that

101

but honestly you should get a mouse

102

if you're using blender at least get a mouse

103

but anyways click number pad and then click save user settings

104

if you're on a laptop otherwise you're fine okay so look at that

105

so now we're moving around we're looking at the top view look at the front whatever

106

now let's say we don't want to have to look at the cube right now what our focus is on is

107

um that right there which is the camera well it's kind of annoying to bring

108

that into focus so the way that you would have a look at

109

that is by holding down shift and then middle mouse button dragging

110

and now we're sort of moving the view

111

we're shifting the focus to a new area

112

now it's kind of like weird like you first move

113

it's like oh that's not the center like the camera's up there now so like

114

because it's 3d view

115

it doesn't really know where you're trying to look at until

116

you sort of by a number of movements find your way there

117

if this is making any sense at all

118

so now we're sort of looking at the camera there um now

119

if i wanted to have a look at the lamp

120

and by the way

121

this is good practice just especially as you first start go

122

from yeah having a look at the camera to now having a look at the lamp

123

now i'm going down to have a look at the cube here

124

and now we're looking at the old cube thrilling stuff

125

i know this is uh

126

you're probably thinking like this is 3d oh my goodness what have i done

127

this is the most boring thing i know it's boring

128

but it's it's the start you know you you break off the the dry piece of bread

129

and then underneath is the moist stuff put

130

that on a bumper sticker um all right so yeah

131

so we're moving around okay

132

so that's good practice all right good practice i won't be checking your homework but

133

if you can sort of just move from object to object

134

it's uh it's good practice now there is actually an easier way to like don't think you have to do

135

that for everything so say i i was on this cube

136

and i wanted to look at that camera over there well first of all i would select the camera

137

which you'll notice

138

if you click anywhere in blender you click you're not

139

you're not selecting it you got this dumb little

140

it's called the 3d cursor i shouldn't call it dumb it has a purpose

141

but it's annoying you click and it's like there's

142

that thing there why is

143

that well for whatever reason blender is a little bit silly in

144

that the left and the right mouse buttons are sort of flipped okay

145

so default with blender to select something is right click

146

which i personally believe is a little bit silly

147

and i even did a whole video series explaining it

148

and 90 of the community voted that it should be changed

149

and from what i heard in the future

150

it is going to be changed by default it'll be left click for now what I suggest

151

you do especially as a beginner

152

because it'll help you just

153

it's just one less thing to think about is to change the default to be left click

154

and you can do that by going to file user preferences and then click select with left

155

And then when you do that, hit

156

Save User Settings.

157

Oh, I'll uncheck that so I don't have that.

158

Okay.

159

And now that you've done that, hey, now you can select just like you would in any other program.

160

It just makes it a lot easier.

161

And you're now ahead of the curve so that when Blender does change to default to left, you are already on the same page.

162

Okay.

163

So now, okay, so we've selected something.

164

We select the camera.

165

If we want to have a look at that thing, instead of dragging our way over there piece by piece, if you hit

166

Number Pad, period.

167

Ta -da!

168

Now it brings that directly to the focus.

169

Now I can select the lamp.

170

Now I'm looking at the lamp.

171

Now I select the cube.

172

And now I'm looking at the cube.

173

Okay.

174

So those are some very basic things.

175

So we discussed in this part one, which was very dry and very, you know, boring.

176

Orbiting with middle mouse click.

177

Panning with shift middle mouse click.

178

Top view, which is seven.

179

Front view, which is one side view

180

which is three oh one extra one by the way just to make it interesting

181

if you push number pad five

182

that takes it from perspective mode uh to orthographic mode

183

or back and forth like that which don't

184

if you're a complete beginner don't worry about

185

that yet like oh well what's the difference

186

it's just like users of other software might be more familiar with orthographic

187

or vice versa so you can switch between them

188

and it comes in handy

189

when you're modeling something like the size of a building

190

you want to get it the exact size you would switch in

191

and out of it like that but anyways don't worry about it otherwise

192

so yeah so seven one three to the side

193

that to switch in and out of it to focus on something you are clicking

194

and then number pad period

195

and we also inverted the settings to what it should be left click as uh as select

196

so again this is just part one

197

i just want to do some very very basic stuff just to start um to make things interesting

198

i did mentioned that we would set a monkey head on fire.

199

So let's do that right now.

200

So let's delete this default cube and I'll just show you the next thing in Blender.

201

So to bring another object into the scene, you do this by hitting shift A.

202

Okay.

203

So that's brought up this menu here, which has a range of different stuff.

204

A lot of them you would never want to use really like speaker.

205

I guess that's used for games force field that's for like physics simulations

206

and stuff the majority of what you would use is underneath mesh so these are other softwares sometimes call them primitives

207

um it's just a basic object

208

so sphere you click sphere brings in a sphere um you can

209

and delete you can just hit delete and then took

210

that away i'm not sure if i addressed that before but anyways

211

so you can bring in any of these objects here another

212

name another um shortcut cut for delete is x by the way just hit x

213

so you can bring in a bunch of these

214

now right down the bottom

215

there there's one called monkey what's the deal with the monkey andrew well monkey is uh

216

it's kind of like a cult figure of blender um

217

and it's used mostly for like material tests like you want to test a material

218

you just bring in a monkey um

219

but it now it's it's still like this cult icon of blender

220

so if you look at like some renders that people make online like you see like a forest scene you're like, ah, it's a cool forest.

221

And they're like, wait a minute.

222

And you're like, zoom in and like, I recognize that rock.

223

And it's, of course it's the monkey head.

224

So like blender used to try and like slip it into their, uh, into their scene as kind of like a little, uh, Easter egg.

225

So that's kind of fun, but that's basically it.

226

It's a monkey.

227

And for whatever reason, it's called the Suzanne head.

228

I don't know where that name came from.

229

Let me get a drink here for a second.

230

Okay.

231

So let's set the Suzanne head on fire.

232

So you can do this very, very quickly.

233

If you hit the space bar, which is another, um, shortcut, it allows you to type in anything like maybe, uh, select, you forget the,

234

like what the keyboard shortcut is.

235

You can just type it in.

236

Like what's the snap cursor to the center.

237

And you can just do that but the one

238

that we're going to do just for a bit of fun

239

because I know we did some dry stuff let's set it on fire by clicking quick smoke

240

and what that does is it performs a number of actions for you very quickly

241

so it created this smoke simulation based around the object

242

that was selected which was the monkey head and now

243

if you hit alt a

244

which is another shortcut it now it's it's rendering it's simulating the smoke

245

which is which is kind of cool and

246

if you really wanted to this isn't included like this is just extra advanced stuff

247

i've got a whole tutorial on fire simulation by the way

248

if you wanted to check it out later on um

249

but in the in the physics panel here you've got options like you could make it like high resolution smoke

250

so that now it's like you get more plumy smoke

251

which is kind of cool you could make it uh higher resolution

252

so it's like a nicer looking smoke and also

253

if you set select the suzanna head and then change the smoke type to fire and smoke.

254

Hey, now it's a crazy flaming head like out of that Nicolas Cage movie.

255

What's that one?

256

That, that, that motorcyclist one.

257

The one that looks like the only people that enjoyed it were like the same guys that are at NASCAR.

258

I don't know, Ghost Rider.

259

That was, and he's like, I'm the Ghost Rider.

260

I just scared my cat.

261

Anyway, that was it for part one.

262

Now, oh, I discussed a lot of keyboard shortcuts in this video,

263

a lot of them now if you're struggling to remember it don't worry about writing notes

264

because there is a free keyboard shortcut pdf on my website

265

so if you click here right now uh just go to the website

266

and then type in your email address and i'll send

267

that to your inbox

268

so it's a handy little guide it's got all the common shortcuts in three pages all the common shortcuts

269

that most artists use

270

and it's printer friendly so you can print it out stick it on your wall

271

and uh enjoy so that was part one.

272

Hope you learned something.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?

שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
