First Tutorial Series

[dusk escarp]

I'm thinking of making a free blender course after my 1 year anniversery. What do you guys feel is lacking in the youtube tutorial series? What do you guys mostly want a tutorial or a tutorial course on? I'll try to make the whole course very thorough and high quality.

I dont really need any tutorials like that, but im sure that beginners would love to!

Maybe try making like tips videos!

5 tips on modeling for beginners or something!

[dusk escarp]

There's like 100s of those

and i think i've watched a lot myself

[deft merlin]

alr

how about....

something ive been working on for a while now

fast tutorials

ian hubert style

1 minute long tutorials that are entertaining and learning

[ocean scaffold]

As a beginner, a thing I yearn for and don't really see in tutorials is a breakdown on nodes (geometry and shader) with their purpose and an illustration. This could be a good series of tutorials.

Just make whatever you consider yourself an expert in

[deft merlin]

agreed

blender has literally any thing imaginable (at most times). If you are good with sculpting; start making sculpting tutorials! If you are good at texturing; start making shader nodes tutorials! just do what you think you are good at!

[dusk escarp]

i personally dont have an idea what im expert at.

definitely not sculpting or rigging

[dusk escarp]

maybe i can go through all the shader nodes

dont know much about geonodes

for example i can make a video on each of these groups (9-10)

although i've no idea of the scripts and some other nodes

thats going on my list

any other ideas?

[dusk escarp]

im decent at modelling ig

but like i dont think of myself as an artistic person

wait lmao i just saw 4 tutorials on shader nodes

even cgmatter and ryan are there

Some tutorial on complex shading Is always nice.
But most importantly make sure you teach correct things, dont over complicate stuff and dont make shallow content that already exist 😄

[livid aurora]

but shallow content that already exists is the foundation of my channel... 😂

[unborn jetty]

😄 But its well made and not 30 min long. Only thing that annoyed me are the multiple principle bsdfs xd

[rugged jay]

@dusk escarp maybe a few videos detailing the use of drivers...

[dusk escarp]

im trying to learn that myself lmao

maybe something like the donut tutorial

but instead of beginner its intermediate

[livid aurora]

I'm a big fan of people making videos at any level, and honestly it doesnt matter if the same topic exists 1,000,000 times already because you may deliver the content in such a specific way that really resonates with people. But the thing you need to do is make content about what you're an expert in. I dont mean you need to be an expert in blender in it's entirety. What I mean is that you need to be an expert in specific things. So if your thing is being an expert in sculpting ears, then own that area. you may have a killer instinct for rigging - so share that. It might just be something example but effective like knowing how to box model. so don't look for what's missing, look for what you can teach first, then look for what's missing.

Thanks man you got that wisdom:100

[narrow blaze]

Hey man try making a rigging tutorial

[dusk escarp]
