About

Andrew Price creates tutorials for the free open source 3D software "Blender". Born in Australia in 1988, Andrew has created Blender tutorials since 2008. His most popular videos are the blender "donut series", which teach beginners how to use Blender while making a donut. It's been remade four times since 2017 to stay up to date with Blender's major interface changes. Andrew is Founder and CEO of Poliigon (https://www.poliigon.com) which offers premium Textures, HDRIs and Models for 3D. In 2024 Andrew moved to West Hollywood LA to be closer to the 3D industry.

Video Description

This is a complete course for understanding how to use the Eevee rendering engine in Blender. Eevee is an (almost) real-time rendering engine. So you can render animation sequences in minutes rather than days with Cycles. This video will take complete beginners through everything they need to know to get started with Eevee. You'll learn the theory of how Eevee works, how to fix common problems, and how to optimize an Eevee scene for rendering. ===Links🔗=== Poliigon Blender Addon: https://www.poliigon.com/blender?utm_campaign=eevee&utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=bg Blended Reflection Bug: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/issues/135198#issuecomment-1507735 === Chapter Marks ✂️=== 0:00 Intro 0:56 Modelling the room 2:01 Fixing Eevee light bleed 05:00 Why does Eevee have noise? 06:10 Increasing samples to specific areas 08:10 Adding reflections in Eevee 09:06 Fixing reflection artifacts 14:44 Intro to Reflection Probes 17:39 Spherical Probes 20:28 Light Bounces 26:00 Optimizing Raytracing 27:50 Improving GI Bounces 29:18 Introduction to Volume Probes (Baked Lighting) 35:05 Getting a perfect Volume Probe bake 42:21 Surfel Resolution 43:20 Using image textures 47:26 Improving texture sharpness 48:28 Using HDRIs 52:44 Glass 57:05 Thin glass (cups and windows) 1:02:44 Volumetrics 1:04:06 What to do when volume probes look dark 1:06:48 Fixing World Light bleed 1:07:44 Fixing flickering alpha maps 1:08:50 Optimizing textures 1:11:35 Optimizing reflection probes 1:14:16 Sphere probe resolution 1:14:58 Raytracing optimizations ===Follow me🫰=== X: https://x.com/andrewpprice Instagram: http://instagram.com/andrewpprice ArtStation: http://artstation.com/artist/andrewprice LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-price-17678911 Music ID: JFTPWZDFYLB752M4
