5 Quick Tips in Blender in less than 5 Minutes

Update for Tip 5: You can use the shortcut Ctrl+Alt+Space to create a new custom transform orientation instead of pressing the '+' button.
- Thanks to 'pauljs75' from the comment section

So... I finally made a tutorial!

Working in 3D software is all about workflow. The more tricks and shortcuts you know, the quicker you'll be able to finish a project. That's why I want to share five tips that I have learned from my four years of experience with Blender.

- And this time I don't have to apologize for the noise :P

00:21 - Change settings for multiple objects at once
01:09 - Using the Bevel Modifier to control subdivision (sharpen edges)
1:39 - Drivers are awesome!
2:55 - Render faster using 'Frame steps'
3:22 - Use Custom Transform Orientations

This video was amazing. I spend a lot of time in Blender yet this video taught me so many things that I did not know. Thank you very much for this excellent work :D

It's very useful, thank you very much !

[ZachHixsonTutorials]

Tips 1 and 5 are lifesavers! I've worked professionally in Blender for years and have come up with so many of my own asinine solutions to those problems it's not even funny XD

[VeloFX]

The custom orientation is very helpful! :)

[HazielBlack]

thanks a lot you saved me hours of painful work!

[pauljs]

Hovering over the "+" on the custom transforms fails to give a tooltip (some dev being lazy there?), but there's a default hotkey of "Ctrl-Alt-Space". Knowing that can speed things up at times instead of having to bring the panel up and going to that menu each time.

Pisse fed tutorial. Rigtig godt at se en dansker hejse flaget! Keep it up.

[DerekElliott]

Great, concise, quick info. Trying to do the same with my channel... subscribed!

[StugysTomas]

nice tips, could you show more explanations in depth about drivers for animation like that?

[philippages]

don't apologize for your accent or the words you use. The tips were great. Have confidence and don't worry too much about what others think of you. You will do well.

This may be a dumb question but, the clay shader your using how do I get that look?
