because we get to see how you change as you progressed through this 00:10.510 --> 00:10.930 course. 00:10.930 --> 00:15.010 You can go from zero skills to really quite a capable artist pretty quickly. 00:15.100 --> 00:18.350 So who is going to be the main instructor on the course Smokey. 00:18.740 --> 00:22.940 Okay so Ben's going I'm going to be your main instructor guiding through most of the changes we're going 00:22.960 --> 00:23.910 experience in blender. 00:24.010 --> 00:28.930 And then here he's really in the background helping support and pop into the occasional lectures. 00:28.930 --> 00:31.520 I know we've got a couple more unity coming up as well. 00:31.570 --> 00:36.480 So he's going to be there as support to make sure that the learning journey for you guys is great. 00:36.760 --> 00:40.600 Absolutely so attached to this letter you've got to link over to Google slides. 00:40.600 --> 00:43.330 That's where you want to go to get the latest section notes. 00:43.340 --> 00:45.660 They're always going to tell you what's coming up in the video. 00:45.700 --> 00:49.620 The details of your challenge and the several diagrams and useful features in them. 00:49.660 --> 00:52.400 So go over there it's a fully interactive document like Nike. 00:52.450 --> 00:52.720 Yes. 00:52.810 --> 00:56.310 That's great and immediate feedback as well so if we spot a typo. 00:56.380 --> 00:58.240 Do let us know and we can fix that for you. 00:58.270 --> 01:00.670 And also attached to this particular lecture. 01:00.670 --> 01:01.980 We have your assets. 01:02.110 --> 01:05.060 So anything that you're going to need in this section there are attached there. 01:05.060 --> 01:08.330 Download them now so you've got them hand on your computer. 01:08.560 --> 01:09.010 Absolutely. 01:09.010 --> 01:13.030 So to end this off we're going to switch into a screencast with Mikey has got a challenge for you. 01:13.890 --> 01:19.110 Hello everybody so before we get to the challenge itself I just like to show you around a bit of the 01:19.110 --> 01:24.450 yummy interface Now that is of course subject to change but also the community site and the Facebook 01:24.450 --> 01:24.810 group. 01:24.810 --> 01:27.360 If you want to join in with those as well. 01:27.360 --> 01:32.220 So first of all if you're on the udemy interface if you wiggle the mouse when you're using it we've 01:32.220 --> 01:34.710 got resources available on the left hand side. 01:34.710 --> 01:36.040 We click on that. 01:36.040 --> 01:37.590 Well let's not get the video playing. 01:37.590 --> 01:39.570 And let's go ahead and have a look. 01:39.570 --> 01:45.410 So we got our assets underneath here and that will be true of all the lectures up ahead. 01:45.510 --> 01:49.660 Now at the bottom of the video you've got a browse Q and A button. 01:49.680 --> 01:54.480 Now this is for your questions and answers relating to the video you're currently watching. 01:54.480 --> 01:57.030 And I would strongly suggest using it for just that. 01:57.090 --> 01:59.940 What it's not very good at is for sharing your work. 01:59.940 --> 02:02.510 Unfortunately the Yumi interface isn't great for that. 02:02.640 --> 02:05.690 So we've generated a community site that is. 02:05.730 --> 02:07.560 And also we've got the Facebook group as well. 02:07.560 --> 02:14.880 So let's disappear over to the community site here game dev dot TV and this is the front page and you 02:14.910 --> 02:18.600 blender guys are great you know you post the most out of all of this groups. 02:18.630 --> 02:19.790 We scroll down a little. 02:19.890 --> 02:26.970 You'll see the course flag just here we've got blender 223 a week and in here we have all of the different 02:26.970 --> 02:28.460 sections with all the lectures in. 02:28.620 --> 02:34.830 Now if I quickly just jump back you will see here that there is show one more and we've got this lectures 02:34.830 --> 02:41.100 discussions if you go ahead and click on that in any of these particular lectures that will take you 02:41.100 --> 02:44.500 through to the appropriate place on that forum. 02:44.520 --> 02:49.380 Of course you will have to sign up very quick and easy to do if you prefer to use Facebook then of course 02:49.380 --> 02:51.650 come and join us over at the Facebook group. 02:51.660 --> 02:55.010 And I'm just going to make this not fullscreen for a second. 02:55.000 --> 03:01.290 The Facebook you are L is face madon conference that group's forward slash blender course. 03:01.340 --> 03:05.990 Let's know you want to come on board and we'll of course let you into the group. 03:06.150 --> 03:11.150 The game day on TV is community game dev dot TV. 03:11.400 --> 03:13.940 That's the u r l for that and I'll put links. 03:13.950 --> 03:15.150 They're not here at the moment. 03:15.150 --> 03:19.290 In this particular thing but I'll make sure that there are some more resources here and a few moments 03:19.590 --> 03:22.990 so that you can just click a link here to take to those places. 03:23.040 --> 03:25.420 And finally talking about resources. 03:25.530 --> 03:31.710 Now there won't be any in this particular lecture but if you get to any of the later lectures and we 03:31.710 --> 03:38.250 have lecture project changes that's where you can find the current state that I'm working on in my lectures 03:38.250 --> 03:44.640 you'll be able to download it and continue it as if you had what I have currently on my screen that 03:44.640 --> 03:49.440 can be useful later on especially if you go off on your own tangent which I do suggest you do you know 03:49.440 --> 03:52.090 exploring what the capabilities of blender are. 03:52.140 --> 03:56.670 But occasionally you can deviate just a little bit too far from the original video and find it difficult 03:56.670 --> 04:01.500 to continue so at any point throughout the course you can go to elektra project changes and the majority 04:01.500 --> 04:07.880 of lectures will have my current state or end state in there so you can continue one. 04:08.310 --> 04:10.200 Okay guys it's Challenge time. 04:10.200 --> 04:12.840 I'd like you to go ahead and say hello. 04:13.080 --> 04:15.740 So post a comment against this lecture. 04:15.810 --> 04:18.720 Introduce yourself to the community. 04:19.050 --> 04:25.950 Let us know what your goals are and ambitions are have a look at some of the other students. 04:25.950 --> 04:31.050 Say hello to them see if they've got similar interests to yourself it's a great way to meet up with 04:31.110 --> 04:34.140 other people who want to use Blender and have the same style as you. 04:34.140 --> 04:36.450 Perhaps you're looking for an artist to work with. 04:36.570 --> 04:40.630 Well this might be an absolutely wonderful opportunity to do so. 04:40.650 --> 04:45.660 Now remember to come back here to meet new faces you will obviously have to come back to this particular 04:45.660 --> 04:48.000 lecture and have a look over there. 04:48.000 --> 04:52.830 And of course we've got the Facebook group as well if you want to pop over there and join that. 04:52.860 --> 04:56.030 So pause a video now and give that a go. 04:59.040 --> 05:00.030 Okay guys welcome back. 05:00.040 --> 05:03.360 I hope you have said hello over in the discussions. 05:03.390 --> 05:09.420 It is important with all of these challenges you will find most of the lectures that I give to you guys 05:09.420 --> 05:15.090 will have a challenge either a small or a big challenge in them and it is really important that we ingrain 05:15.090 --> 05:17.720 the habit now that you go ahead and do these challenges. 05:17.730 --> 05:22.890 They're really important they help cement the knowledge in your mind and in this particular one it make 05:22.890 --> 05:29.020 sure that you know how to for instance ask questions as well because it is the same interface. 05:29.190 --> 05:35.010 So with that said Welcome to the Course guys let's carry on now and I will see you guys in the next 05:35.010 --> 05:35.770 lecture.
