So this is Blender.

It can do 3D modeling, texturing, lighting, shading, and rendering.

And I'm going to show you how to do all of those things whilst you make your very own donut.

And I know this looks complex and challenging, but I promise you it is achievable for even a complete beginner that has never opened Blender,

such as yourself.

And I know this because millions of beginners have already made their donut, because this is the fifth version of this tutorial.

I remake it for every major Blender release, this one for Blender 5 .0.

And speaking of which, if you have already made a donut from a previous version, rather than make another one,

I've actually just released a course designed for post -donut beginners.

So if you're interested in that, you can click the link below.

For everybody else, you need to download Blender.

So if you haven't already, click the link below.

That'll take you to blender .org and then just hit the big download button.

Now, if you're on Windows, that'll download an executable, which you should install.

If you're on a Mac, it's an application.

You drag to your applications folder.

And also, if you're at school or you're on a work computer that won't let you install anything, you can still use Blender.

If you download the portable zip version of Blender, then just unzip it.

You can run Blender from the folder.

Pretty cool.

Anyway, however you got Blender, open it and you should see this.

Then just click anywhere off the splash screen to close it, and you're in Blender.

Hey, welcome.

So this big section, this big gray area here, this is your 3D viewport,

and it's where you'll spend probably 98 % of your time because it's the 3D world.

Whether you're making a character, you're building an environment, it all happens right here.

So the first thing you need to learn is how to move around in this space

and you can orbit by middle mouse pushing.

So your scroll wheel, if you just push it in until it clicks, that's your middle mouse button.

And then if you just drag that around, you can orbit.

If you don't have a middle mouse button, a lot of people don't, they're on like a laptop with a trackpad or something,

you guys will struggle.

It's definitely easier if you have a mouse.

But in a pinch, top right -hand corner, you just mouse over this little circle and then just click and drag on that.

That'll do the same thing or the third alternative way to do it, edit, preferences, and then underneath input, emulate three button mouse.

And then if you hold down alt and then left click drag, that will do the same thing.

I don't want that.

By the way, whilst I am here, a value that you will wanna change, if you're on a 4K monitor,

you will probably have noticed that like Blender looks like this, where like everything is really super tiny and you have to squint to see it.

So underneath interface, I changed my resolution scale to at least a 1 .5, usually like 1 .8.

But for tutorials, I go even higher so you can really see everything.

But it's obviously much easier to use when you can see things clearly.

Okay, so middle mouse drag, that's how you orbit around.

You can see we're focusing on our cube at the moment though.

So how do we move to somewhere else?

You do that by shift middle mouse drag and that will pan you somewhere else.

You can also over here on the side there, click that little hand, that will do the same thing.

But yeah, shift middle mouse drag or middle mouse drag to orbit.

And what about zoom?

You can probably guess, you might've already done it by mistake, but just zooming by scrolling in and out on your wheel.

Or again, you can go to the little magnifying glass there, just click on that and do that.

Or alternatively, control middle mouse, and then that will also move you in as well.

So I've thrown a lot of keyboard shortcuts at you already.

Middle mouse for this, shift middle mouse to pan.

scroll.

If you don't want to have to remember all the hotkeys, because I'm going to throw a lot more at you.

If you don't want to have to write them down yourself, I have done it for you.

So I put together a Google Doc with all of the most common hotkeys and shortcuts that you might need to use.

And it's free.

So just click the link below and you can print it out.

You can stick it on your wall.

A lot of people do that.

And it's a big time saver.

Okay.

Now it's really common to like get lost, like one way to like end up upside down like this.

And then you're like, which way is up?

How do I, you know, if you just over here, these little, um, these little, this gizmo thing, these, these colored circle things with lines,

those are your axes.

So if you just click on one of those, that'll reorient yourself.

So the Z that's the top axes.

And then you just, you're back, right?

You know, which way is up because it's, it's, it's that way, right?

Which way that one is pointing

Another way, like if you got like really off into the weeds, like you were over here and then you're like,

how do I get back to where I was?

If you've got an object selected and you just want to focus on, like just fly to it, and this is a really common hotkey,

you use it all the time.

It's numpad period.

And that'll just fly you to that.

If you don't have a numpad, like even a lot of keyboards today they don't sell them with numpads anymore i guess because

people aren't accountants they don't need to quickly type in numbers

but i love them because it's really useful for blender um

if you don't have one um you can also use the tilde key

which is that little key underneath your escape key so

if you hold that down and then just drag over where it says view selected

and then release that'll do the exact same thing so that is how you can quickly change focus to the selected object.

And yeah, as I said, you do this all the time.

But yeah, I'm going to be using numpad period from now on.

Okay.

So we're making a donut.

We do not need our cube here.

So let's delete it.

You can just hit delete on your keyboard.

Or what I like to do is hit X, which is the alternative way.

And it's just easy because my finger is like right there.

I know it's another hotkey to remember, but you delete stuff a lot as well.

And it's helpful to not have to find that key.

So X and then delete.

And now I want to add a new object.

100

And I can do that by going to add at the top of the screen there, or alternatively, the hotkey, another one to throw at you,

101

shift A, and that'll just put it wherever your cursor is.

102

And it's the exact same list.

103

But this list here is, I mean, it's extensive.

104

There's stuff in here that I have never used in my 21 years of using Blender.

105

Speaker, never, ever used it.

106

Don't know what it's for.

107

Most of the time what you're looking for is underneath mesh.

108

So these are your primitive mesh objects.

109

And generally when you're making something, you pick one of these that most resembles or is closest to what it is you're making.

110

Like if you're making a mailbox, you might start with a cube.

111

You're making a lamppost, you might start with a cylinder.

112

We're starting, well, we're trying to make a donut.

113

So we need to start with a torus, which is basically a donut.

114

Look at that.

115

So that's cool.

116

It's a wimpy looking donut though, right?

117

It's very, very flimsy.

118

We wanna make it look more thicker, right?

119

So in the bottom left -hand corner, there's a little box that says add Taurus and this has additional options for us.

120

Now, if you accidentally clicked off after you added the Taurus, that box is gone.

121

You can momentarily bring it back by hitting F9, but that's only if you haven't changed something.

122

So essentially, yeah, it's called the last used function in Blender.

123

So immediately after you do an action in Blender, sometimes you see in the bottom left -hand corner additional options,

124

which you can tweak and change things if you need.

125

So if you don't see it, it just means you've done something else and it's gone.

126

But yeah, you can bring it back momentarily by hitting F9 sometimes.

127

But I usually just like redo it.

128

Anyways, so first thing I want to change is the size of this thing.

129

So it is one meter, which is like three feet for the Americans.

130

It's a big donut.

131

Probably shouldn't be that big.

132

It should be about 10 % of that.

133

So 0 .1, which is 10 centimeters, roughly about that.

134

And then if I zoom in by scrolling forward, I just need to change my minor radius until it looks somewhat like a donut.

135

So I want to just orbit up, right, and around.

136

So I'm just middle mouse moving so I can see the inside.

137

Then I'll just scroll in like so.

138

until, yeah, and I'm just going to change this value until it looks like a donut.

139

Now, you can see as I move this, like it's going really quick and I can't get it on the right value.

140

So when you're clicking and dragging on a value in Blender, if you hold down shift, that will use smaller increments.

141

And that's another one you use all the time because it's, yeah, sometimes you need small values and it's helpful to get smaller increments like that.

142

So that's pretty good.

143

I might go with that.

144

Yeah, about a 0 .057.

145

Okay.

146

And then the other thing you can change here is like the resolution of the donut.

147

You know, you can go like really PlayStation 1 graphics, maybe.

148

I'm going to keep it at 48, but I'm going to increase the other one to about, yeah, let's go 18 like that.

149

16, 18.

150

Yeah, we'll go 18.

151

And that's just a little bit more resolution.

152

And it's just going to help us a little bit later on when we start to shape the donut.

153

Okay, but once I've got that, I can just click off.

154

And now those options are gone.

155

We've committed.

156

That's it.

157

That is the starting point of our donut.

158

Now, the next thing you're probably wondering is, it still kind of looks like PlayStation 1 graphics, Andrew.

159

and that's because it has flat shading.

160

So basically there's two states for a mesh.

161

There's smooth shading or there is flat shading and it defaults to flat.

162

If you wanna change it to smooth, you just right click the object and then go shade smooth like that.

163

And there we go, it's fixed.

164

So basically shade smooth without getting too technical.

165

Anytime there is like two faces, it just kind of smooths out that point.

166

like fakery.

167

So it's not actually adding any additional computation times, which is important, but it's appearing to the eye to be smooth.

168

Okay.

169

So in previous donut versions, we would start making the icing.

170

And although that's fun to make like dribbling icing, it can be a little complicated.

171

A lot of users ran into their first roadblocks at that time.

172

So instead, we're going to do something a little bit easier to start with and more practical, and that's to make a coffee mug.

173

So we need to add in a new object, which if you can remember from before, it's the add menu at the top there,

174

or the hotkey, as I like to use, shift A.

175

And then underneath mesh, you're looking for something that most resembles the object you're trying to create.

176

No prizes for guessing, the cylinder.

177

Okay, so it comes in very, very big.

178

It's completely engulfing our donut.

179

So again, in the bottom left -hand corner, click that little add cylinder.

180

And then I'm going to change the radius first of all, just to bring this back.

181

You can like do this after the fact, like resize something, but it just helps to, you know, at this point, see it all together.

182

I think I'm going to make it around holding down shift and just kind of drag it back and forth.

183

Yeah, about 0 .13 or exactly 0 .13.

184

And then the depth, this is just the height of it.

185

And again, you can change this later on, but just want to see it roughly the right size.

186

The big one that's important is the vertices.

187

And we're actually going to make this look more low res.

188

Now, why would we make it look more low res?

189

Because now it's obviously very jagged.

190

The reason for this is that very soon, we're going to be adding in something called a subsurf modifier,

191

which adds over the top of our existing mesh, it adds more geometry, like it doubles the geometry and it kind of smooths it out.

192

So actually, if you start too high like this, then you're adding, like doubling that geometry and doubling it again.

193

And then you can quickly end up with something that's too computationally heavy.

194

So when you're working and you know you're gonna be doing something subdiv, sometimes it helps to start like chunkier, low res.

195

Anyway, just trust me and set it to 14 like that.

196

Okay, great.

197

So we've got another object and they are completely overlapping.

198

So how do we separate things?

199

Some of you might already know this.

200

You can guess, right?

201

Left -hand side there, there's a tool that looks like it would be able to move something.

202

It's the Move tool.

203

So this is one way to move things.

204

You activate that and you get this little gizmo.

205

And look, I can move it and I can separate them.

206

So this is moving things along the axes.

207

You can also just drag on that, click and drag on that little white circle there.

208

And then that's like freehand drag around.

209

I will say most Blender users don't actually use

210

and move things this way

211

because it's a lot of effort every time you want to move something to like go to the sidebar,

212

activate the tool, you know, click it, move it.

213

It's like most people don't do that.

214

Instead, they remember the hotkey and the hotkey to move in Blender.

215

And you'll be using this a lot.

216

So again, this is on my keyboard shortcut.

217

It's all in there.

218

But the hotkey is G, G for grab.

219

Now, you will notice very quickly that when you tap G, the moment you tap it, you are already in the move state.

220

So it's now attached to my cursor, even though I didn't click.

221

Okay, so and here's the other thing.

222

My cursor could be on the other side of the screen doesn't have to be anywhere near the object

223

and then the moment you tap G, it's now anchored to that cursor.

224

And even more, I think it's cool, when you go to the other side of the screen, it actually, your cursor appears on the other side.

225

So it's just like an infinitely repeating thing there.

226

But at first, this is like hard to wrap your head around because Blender does this for a lot of things,

227

like not just moving something, but also rotating something.

228

The moment I tap R, which is how to rotate something,

229

or S, okay, that's, I thought I might as well just teach you all three at the same time.

230

So G to move something, G for grab, R to rotate, or S to scale something.

231

But you'll see in each of those states, the moment you hit the key, no matter where your cursor is, it's in that state.

232

And that's actually a good thing because, as I said, the number of times you need to move things and rotate and scale things in 3D,

233

if you had to every single time change the tool, then move your cursor to over to it, click it, activate it.

234

That's a lot of extra steps.

235

So it's actually really cool to have this like just one tap key and it's already activated.

236

Anyways, okay, so, but whilst I'm in the move state by tapping G,

237

I can also lock it to a specific axis just like with those arrows that you saw before.

238

So just when it's in that move state, you tap the axis you wanna move it on.

239

So that's the X axis the Y brings it back and forwards and the Z is up and down.

240

Okay, and that's correct.

241

Blender is Z up, Y backwards and forwards.

242

Different 3D applications have different things.

243

There's no like standard, but yeah, that's how Blenders is.

244

And by the way, if you forget which letter is which axes, you can actually see them up there in that little circle there.

245

So again, X, Y, and Z.

246

Anyways, I want to move this actually just a little bit further back right there.

247

So I want my donut to be the front and center, and I want this to be at the back there.

248

But then how do I change my view so I'm no longer just pivoting on my donut.

249

I want to shift my focus to that selected object.

250

It's number pad period.

251

Or again, holding down that tilde key under your escape button and then hitting view selected is the same thing.

252

Okay.

253

So let's make this look like a coffee mug.

254

So we have to edit this object.

255

And to edit an object, we have to change what mode we are in.

256

So in the top left -hand corner of the screen, there's a little drop -down, which if you click, we can change it into edit mode.

257

Okay, so when you're in edit mode, you can see the state has changed.

258

The object that was selected now has a bunch of points and lines on it.

259

And you'll also notice whilst you're in edit mode, you can't actually select any object.

260

And it's worth pointing out this because this is a really common thing a lot of beginners, they say, I don't know what happened,

261

but I couldn't select anything in Blender.

262

And usually it's just, they're in the wrong state.

263

They're in edit mode.

264

They forgot.

265

And then they tried to like come over here and then click something.

266

And they're like, why is it not selecting?

267

Okay.

268

So you have to be in object mode if you want to select an object.

269

And if you want to edit something, you have to be in edit mode.

270

But going to this dropdown and doing this time and again would again be annoying.

271

So Blender, of course, has a hotkey for it, and that is tab.

272

So tab will just cycle you in and out of object and edit mode,

273

just those two states, which is great because you need to use this all the time.

274

So you usually come in, do some editing, go back into object mode, select something else, edit that one, go back to this.

275

So that's a good one to remember, tab.

276

All right.

277

So in edit mode, when I'm in this state here, these little points here, these are called vertices.

278

These are the points that make up the shape of the mesh, obviously.

279

And then you've got edges.

280

And you can actually select by changing the selection type from vertices, which is the default, to edges,

281

clicking that little button, and then I can click on the edges or select faces.

282

Okay, like this.

283

And again, Blender has hotkeys for everything.

284

So if you want to just know the hotkey, it's one to do vertices select, two to do edge select,

285

and then three to do face select.

286

Again, make sure you get my keyboard shortcut guide because it's a lot to remember.

287

So I want to select the top of this cup here.

288

It's got a lid on it that I don't want.

289

So in face select mode, selecting that face, I'm going to hit X.

290

Now it's going to ask me, what part do you want to delete?

291

Which might sound redundant, but there is quite a lot of times in Blender you want to delete, even though you've selected a bunch of faces,

292

you want to delete the entire vertices of those faces.

293

So we have to confirm, we want to delete just the faces from this list.

294

And there we go.

295

So we've now got a cup with a hole in it.

296

Great.

297

But this cup will not do.

298

It is too paper thin.

299

We could cut our finger on that edge there.

300

So we need to add some thickness to this cup.

301

And while we could do this in edit mode, like you could select everything and extrude it in and whatnot, we don't need to

302

because there is actually a function we can do to add thickness to anything without needing to go into edit mode.

303

And that is underneath your modifier stack here.

304

So if you click this little wrench, this will activate modifiers.

305

Let's just drag this out.

306

And if you click add modifier at the top there, you can see you've got a number of different options.

307

And the one that we're looking for is solidify.

308

So this is underneath the generate.

309

And just in case this changes for a future version of Blender,

310

you can also go to search at the top there and you could just type in solidify from the list.

311

Okay.

312

So now, now that we've got that,

313

you can see we've got a bunch of options and you'll notice that our mesh now has some thickness to it.

314

And I can change this thickness here.

315

Now, watch what happens as I enter into edit mode.

316

You will notice as I select these faces here, I can't select this thick, this inside part of the cup there.

317

And that's an important point because modifiers are not actually adjusting the real mesh.

318

So the real mesh still exists here.

319

If I disable this from the viewport by clicking this little monitor button there, you'll see that my mesh has not changed.

320

This is just applying this effect after the fact.

321

So it's basically in object mode.

322

It's taking whatever mesh that you give it, which is this, and then it's adding thickness to it every face, essentially.

323

So the reason this is so useful is that this is a non -destructive workflow.

324

So I could, at any point, I could be doing a bunch of changes to my mug here.

325

I could, you know, we'll get to all that later on.

326

We could change the size and things.

327

And then later on, I can go, you know what, I think that's a little bit too thick.

328

I'm going to change that.

329

And I can come back to that and very quickly adjust it.

330

So non -destructive, and it's obviously very helpful for a lot of things.

331

Okay.

332

So I've given it some thickness, but I also want to round this corner here.

333

That's way too jagged.

334

Just like before I said, we want to, we're going to add in an extra layer on top, which adds more geometry.

335

And that is called your add, modify, generate subdivision surface.

336

So yeah, all the way down there.

337

You use it all the time, but it's like buried in there.

338

Okay.

339

So subdivision surface.

340

So this appears to have like screwed up the mesh.

341

It's like, well, what actually happened there?

342

Let's just increase the levels viewport.

343

So this is just increasing the number of times that it doubles the geometry.

344

So you can see, this is what we start with, right?

345

This is the start.

346

This is one level.

347

Then this is two levels.

348

And then this is three levels.

349

And every time you do it, it's doubling the geometry.

350

but you can see it's giving us the effect we want.

351

It's smoothing out that edge there but because of the way that it works like basically if you look at,

352

let's go back to this we've got this hard corner here, right?

353

That's just like a 90 degree corner.

354

So let me get a little bit closer here so you can kind of see it.

355

Yeah, it's like a 90 degree perfectly like that.

356

So when you add in a subdivision surface it's basically saying, okay, so there's a point here there is a point all the way over here

357

and there is a point that's going to go all the way.

358

It's so far it's off the screen but it's all the way down there.

359

What I need to do is I need to average out those points.

360

Take the middle point of those three.

361

Essentially from here to somewhere around here and I'm going to add in a point like here.

362

Then if you do another level like level 2 it then places a point here

363

and then another point here and then if you do another level, it places another point here, another point here, another point here.

364

And because there's two sides to this mug, there's like another one happening on that side, right?

365

So we've now just got this like really super like oval -shaped edge like this, okay?

366

Which is why when I turn it on, we get this effect there.

367

So what we first of all need to do in edit mode with our mug here.

368

So I am in, actually it doesn't matter what mode I'm actually in here.

369

But what I need to do is essentially tighten an edge where that smoothing is happening.

370

So it's no longer happening from all the way here to smooth it all the way down to there.

371

I want to happen to about there.

372

So I need to add in more geometry onto this mesh here.

373

So to do that, we need to add a loop cut.

374

That is how you add in another level of another edge.

375

So Control -R will add in this loop cut.

376

I believe you can also find it from the mesh somewhere in here.

377

Yeah, there you go.

378

Edge, loop cut and slide if you wanted to look it in there.

379

But it's, yeah, Control -R.

380

That's another one you use all the time.

381

So when I hit

382

Control -R, it's saying, where do you want to place the cut in this mesh?

383

And I could place it anywhere, anywhere between a face, essentially.

384

So I'm going to place it along this middle.

385

So you do a single click and then it's saying,

386

where do you want to place that vertically on this row of faces essentially.

387

So you can see as I bring it towards the top there, it's tightening that edge there.

388

Okay.

389

And that's exactly what I want.

390

I want that edge to be much tighter than it was before.

391

So that edge is now looking good.

392

But now what about this one at the bottom there?

393

This one's looking even worse.

394

We've got a lot to fix here.

395

But first, I need to do another loop cut.

396

So, control R, and then again, single click to confirm I want it on that row of faces.

397

And then I'm just sliding it along until it's, you know, roughly about there at the bottom of my mug okay

398

and then you can see it's like this whole area here

399

this this face here it's become like a like it's turned it into a star

400

and not to get too complicated

401

but basically a subsurf modifier it has to has to know what to do

402

and generally if there's like faces

403

that are made up of four vertices this is getting complicated

404

i can tell it knows what to do it makes it like nice

405

and smooth but the moment you have a face that is made up of more than four vertices, it's called an N -gon.

406

And it doesn't really know what to do with it.

407

I mean, it does, but...

408

You don't know what it's going to do.

409

And it just can make things look a little ugly.

410

Ngon is kind of like a dirty word in 3D space.

411

It's like, oh, you never want to have an Ngon.

412

They are actually useful and they, you know, do have a purpose.

413

But generally, generally speaking, they're good to avoid if you don't know what you're doing.

414

So anyway, I should tell you what I'm doing.

415

The way to fix this is I need to add another loop that kind of just goes around here, right there.

416

So that way I've only got from there to there

417

and then I can have my ugly star or whatever happening underneath my coffee mug.

418

So I need to add a loop cut, but I can't add a loop cut on just a single face.

419

Instead, what I need to do is, it's called inset, to take a single face

420

and then just like add in a loop around that face and you do that by hitting I.

421

So I and then just like, it's already active.

422

Again, this is why I spent a while to explain it the moment you activate a tool, you're already in that selection state.

423

So I hit I, and wherever my cursor is, it's now going like, where do you want to put this inset?

424

Okay, so I'm just moving it back and forth until I get it.

425

You know, how tight do I want this edge to look?

426

Something like that, maybe?

427

I mean, it's underneath the coffee mug.

428

It doesn't really matter that much, but yeah, Something like that.

429

And there we go.

430

So you can see this looks a lot nicer.

431

And again, because we are in a non -destructive workflow, I've still got my Solidify modifier at the top here, right?

432

I could change the thickness of this.

433

I can make this a really chunky looking coffee mug or a really thin one.

434

And that is the benefit of a non -destructive workflow.

435

And then I can also change how high res do I want my coffee mug to look?

436

And this is the way to work in 3D.

437

This is the best way to do it because, you know, if a client wants you to change something or whatnot,

438

keeping in a flexible workflow is definitely a good place to be.

439

Okay, so we have created the start of a coffee mug and we have also created a donut.

440

Good time to save.

441

Good time to save.

442

So file, save as, or shift control S and then save as.

443

So the way I like to save things, and you might want to copy this, is to, you come up with a name,

444

you know, underscore whatever, and then you put a number after it.

445

And then you can actually see I've already saved my file.

446

I don't want to override my existing save in case I need to go back to it for whatever reason.

447

So I just want to add a number to it.

448

And in other softwares, you know, you have to come here and you have to type in the number, right?

449

Not Blender.

450

Blender has a hotkey for everything.

451

If you hit plus or minus on your numpad or on the little field here.

452

Oh, you can't even see it.

453

I'm right over the top of it right there.

454

This little field, these little plus and minus, it'll automatically add a number to the end of your file.

455

So that's, yeah, really useful.

456

So I'm just going to add a two there and I'm going to hit save.

457

All right.

458

So if you're watching this in the split version of the tutorial, you can click here to watch part two,

459

or if you're watching the combined single long video at the end, you can just keep on watching.

460

Let's go.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
