WEBVTT 00:01.590 --> 00:08.430 Welcome to multiple cameras in this video you will add another camera to the scene change the primary 00:08.430 --> 00:09.160 camera. 00:09.360 --> 00:14.570 Learn how to quickly move the camera around and change the camera's properties. 00:14.820 --> 00:18.320 So let's hop straight on over into blender. 00:19.990 --> 00:24.940 So we're left with our bunny here and we're going to hop back from the image ed which you were in at 00:24.940 --> 00:28.170 the moment over to the 3-d view. 00:28.510 --> 00:30.430 Now we're over in the free TV. 00:30.430 --> 00:33.750 I'm just going to move this across just a little. 00:33.910 --> 00:36.580 And I'm simply going to take a duplicate of our camera. 00:36.610 --> 00:40.780 I'm going to zoom out a little selects my camera in the 3D view. 00:40.800 --> 00:44.750 It's highlighted orange and using shift ends. 00:45.190 --> 00:47.930 Make a duplicate and place it over there. 00:47.950 --> 00:50.680 So we've now got two cameras in our scene. 00:51.000 --> 00:57.750 If we go down to view and view from the camera view it'll go straight back to camera. 00:58.350 --> 01:01.860 Well the one that's just cool camera and one called cameras 001. 01:01.870 --> 01:10.430 So I'm going to name this camera over here camera wide and we'll make that a wide angle lens in a moment. 01:10.510 --> 01:12.850 So we've got our two cameras here. 01:12.860 --> 01:19.000 But how do we how do we actually view it from the camera or this wide one that we've just made well 01:19.210 --> 01:21.290 down once that's selected. 01:22.230 --> 01:24.630 Down on view and cameras. 01:24.750 --> 01:27.310 You can set the active object as the camera. 01:27.330 --> 01:28.200 You can see the shortcut. 01:28.200 --> 01:35.680 There is control and no pads zero just switching to the active camera is no pad zero is very straightforward. 01:35.790 --> 01:41.560 Your cursor does have to be in the 3D window control and zero will switch the camera over here. 01:42.000 --> 01:46.130 So we've got these two cameras that we can select and go backwards and forwards between. 01:47.720 --> 01:49.070 Have to be over 3D view. 01:49.090 --> 01:52.250 Mary Kate so why would we want to do this. 01:52.250 --> 01:57.080 Well there will be times in your scene where you don't want to keep having to move the camera about 01:57.080 --> 02:00.620 between certain positions where you can just have it set up. 02:00.620 --> 02:06.200 Another reason would be if you had different styles of camera so a wide angle where you can see lots 02:06.200 --> 02:15.380 of a scene or a close scene shot there's a lot of theory on the size of focal length as to what you 02:15.380 --> 02:15.830 require. 02:15.830 --> 02:20.670 But this isn't a camera course it's a call some blender so are only touch on it very likely. 02:20.810 --> 02:23.370 Focal length is measured in millimetres. 02:23.480 --> 02:27.770 And basically the lower the number the wider the angle will be. 02:27.770 --> 02:33.350 So the more you'll be able to fit in your scene and the closer your camera will have to be to any object 02:33.650 --> 02:39.470 and you also get that very wide angle look a lot of state of videos and things like that have that fisheye 02:39.470 --> 02:40.280 lens. 02:40.280 --> 02:47.070 Now a fisheye is an extreme wide angle it pretty much encompasses everything in front of the camera. 02:47.210 --> 02:55.190 But it's a bit distorting as well portrayed tends to be around 80 mm something like that telephoto if 02:55.190 --> 03:04.740 you're taking a photo of a bird or an animal in a distance you may have 200 300 400 even higher mm lens. 03:04.760 --> 03:11.360 Now if you were replicating something in a blender that you wanted to do in real life then of course 03:11.360 --> 03:16.960 you would have to make sure you'd also set up your camera appropriately by default. 03:16.970 --> 03:18.890 And we can have a look at these settings. 03:18.890 --> 03:24.170 Now we've got the camera selected at the top here in the propertys window. 03:24.230 --> 03:25.250 There's a camera. 03:25.340 --> 03:30.430 And when we click on that we can see the focal length here is set to 35. 03:31.260 --> 03:31.810 And that's great. 03:31.810 --> 03:36.550 That's a great standard size 50 mimics the human eye. 03:36.560 --> 03:38.690 That's a good number to remember there. 03:38.870 --> 03:43.410 But of course it all depends on what you want to do if you're doing a wide open landscape. 03:43.460 --> 03:45.830 You probably want a wide angle lens. 03:46.040 --> 03:51.140 You're zooming right into the eye of an animal you're probably not going to be right up next to that 03:51.140 --> 03:51.710 animal. 03:51.740 --> 03:57.740 So I'd look really odd if it was wide angled apart if you're looking for an odd type of view then it's 03:57.740 --> 03:59.200 a perfect way of getting there. 03:59.390 --> 04:04.160 So we've got our focal length here we can lower that and raise it and if we set that down to something 04:04.160 --> 04:08.300 like 10 it looks like it's just moved further back from the Rabbit. 04:08.300 --> 04:10.310 But in fact hasn't. 04:10.310 --> 04:16.270 But I want to move my camera now towards that now is selected at the moment. 04:16.260 --> 04:22.910 One of the great things you can just do is open up your properties tabloid press the nke and up here 04:22.940 --> 04:26.330 there's a button that says Lock camera to view. 04:26.330 --> 04:32.720 Now the great thing about this is as you move around the camera moves too which is very powerful when 04:32.720 --> 04:34.910 your having to position a camera. 04:35.060 --> 04:37.760 So now we're at this silly wide angle. 04:37.760 --> 04:41.530 You can see that the rabbit becomes much more distorted. 04:41.660 --> 04:44.770 And if we take that down to something crazy like five. 04:45.080 --> 04:49.830 That's not what the Rabbit looks like anymore but we can fit the whole rabbit in the scene. 04:50.030 --> 04:55.790 If we come out of the camera view for a second to see that the camera is actually there it's really 04:55.790 --> 04:57.880 really close to our rabbit. 04:58.250 --> 05:05.210 Now if we set that back to let's say 50 like the human eye all that might not actually work. 05:05.240 --> 05:05.530 Oh yeah. 05:05.540 --> 05:06.410 There we go. 05:06.710 --> 05:08.420 We're right up against the rabbits. 05:08.420 --> 05:11.290 There's a big difference between 50 and five. 05:11.510 --> 05:17.890 As you can see and if this was a real rabbit we'd probably be taking a photo from all 300 mill lens 05:17.900 --> 05:18.740 or greater. 05:18.740 --> 05:26.650 And yet we would be very close to grab at that point so we can move the camera out of just present twice. 05:26.660 --> 05:28.290 They're to move just backwards. 05:28.520 --> 05:33.990 And now to fit the whole rabbit in view you can see it's also not distorted as much. 05:34.230 --> 05:41.900 Well here's a good thing to watch here we've were reaching the clipping point of the camera so I will 05:41.900 --> 05:43.070 just leave it about there. 05:43.070 --> 05:46.790 So the heads in shot but let's go see where that camera happens to be. 05:46.790 --> 05:54.770 I'm going to remember to turn off lock camera view because now when I move away I'll be able to see 05:54.940 --> 06:01.880 the cameras all the way over there as if you were hiding in the bushes taking a photo of this rabbit. 06:02.300 --> 06:07.700 So there we go if change some of the camera properties we can move around. 06:07.880 --> 06:16.550 Control and no pads zero or down here in the camera's menu under the View menu here cameras. 06:16.550 --> 06:22.580 You can set an active one so if we want to go to this wide angle lens here and I go over the 3D view 06:22.580 --> 06:28.670 and the control in 0 There we go back to that when I can lock the camera it's a view and just rotate 06:28.670 --> 06:31.170 it round and move it about. 06:31.280 --> 06:35.960 So that then I get it back in shot absolutely fine. 06:35.960 --> 06:41.840 Now the active camera is the one that renders as well so if we go ahead and render here it will be using 06:41.840 --> 06:45.610 the camera wide in order to render our shots. 06:45.620 --> 06:51.460 However if we then set the active camera to this one here the just the one that's called camera. 06:51.560 --> 06:57.680 So there we go that's Camera wide rendering that one now if we go back over to the 3D view and get a 06:57.680 --> 07:04.460 camera and go view cameras set camera say active objects as the camera. 07:04.460 --> 07:06.400 There we go that's that done. 07:06.440 --> 07:11.400 Now if we go and render again we're now going to be rendering it from that camera viewpoint. 07:11.540 --> 07:16.730 So if you're playing about this make sure you've got the right camera when it comes to rendering the 07:16.730 --> 07:18.870 shots that you want to do. 07:21.440 --> 07:23.270 Okay guys it's Challenge time. 07:23.270 --> 07:28.340 I'd like you to create another camera so create a couple of new cameras. 07:28.340 --> 07:31.090 Play about with the settings that we've just done. 07:31.160 --> 07:37.700 Gets used to how the camera handles and sets one of the new cameras took a wide angle break quite close 07:37.700 --> 07:43.540 to the Bunny and I suggest about 18 mm pause a video now and give that a go. 07:45.720 --> 07:46.340 Okay guys. 07:46.350 --> 07:47.120 Welcome back. 07:47.130 --> 07:49.460 Let's hop straight back over into blender. 07:50.310 --> 07:58.190 So I've already created a couple of cameras here and I'm going to call this one here camera 35. 07:58.320 --> 08:01.780 And the other camera up here and then record it camera. 08:01.920 --> 08:09.320 Three hundred eight not three thirty three hundred and I'm going to duplicate another camera. 08:09.840 --> 08:15.450 So the easiest way I could add a new camera to a scene if I wanted to but I'm just going to duplicate 08:15.510 --> 08:19.230 this camera 35 with shift Andy. 08:19.980 --> 08:27.860 And unguaranteed was all the way over to espy control in zero so I can see what's going on with cameras 08:27.870 --> 08:29.180 zero zero zero. 08:29.320 --> 08:32.820 I mean we call this camera 18 so I know what it is. 08:32.820 --> 08:35.710 Down in the lens properties of the camera. 08:35.910 --> 08:39.430 I'm going to set that to 18 and see what the views like. 08:39.430 --> 08:43.710 And I'm going to position the camera and lock the camera at two of you. 08:44.070 --> 08:48.620 And let's just zoom in just a little bit more. 08:50.320 --> 08:54.900 Probably about there and to rotate round a little. 08:54.900 --> 08:58.730 Let's look up on the bunny Let's make the bunny huge in our scene. 09:00.300 --> 09:02.210 Sue me out ever so slightly. 09:04.200 --> 09:06.000 I'm not quite happy with that. 09:06.000 --> 09:09.180 I want to see more of the is in the scene. 09:09.910 --> 09:12.020 This way a little over a take rameau course. 09:12.070 --> 09:16.660 This is all artistic licence has no right or wrong way of doing this. 09:16.690 --> 09:21.580 There again let's render and see how that looks because that's the active image. 09:21.670 --> 09:28.000 It's always a good idea to render things out or at least have a small part of the scene rendering. 09:28.880 --> 09:34.880 X. And so that's what my Rabbit looks up like when it's got an 80 mil lens pressed against its face. 09:34.970 --> 09:41.570 I'm just going to make sure that I've got on here go back to the 3D view can uncheck this lock camera 09:41.570 --> 09:48.980 to view because the last thing I want to do is actually move the camera after I've set it all up. 09:49.160 --> 09:54.260 One thing you will notice is that when you zoom in an ounce that's obviously the view the cameras got 09:54.260 --> 09:57.500 there when you click lock camera to view. 09:57.510 --> 10:03.710 Well now the cameras zooming in and out so as before you probably saw that it was like that on my screen 10:03.740 --> 10:06.280 and I was zooming in and I could see enough on my screen. 10:06.280 --> 10:13.070 Sorry if you couldn't see much going on there but you could zoom in and reposition it from there and 10:13.070 --> 10:16.610 get a much better feel about what's going on. 10:16.610 --> 10:17.260 Brilliant. 10:17.270 --> 10:18.650 How did you guys get on. 10:18.650 --> 10:20.700 Love to see your wide angle rabbits. 10:20.720 --> 10:22.470 Please share them in the discussions. 10:22.610 --> 10:25.080 And I will see you in the next lecture.
