Okay, so I have been trying to understand this concept for so long and I have watched so many YouTube videos for this where they literally just over-complicate things and I am eternally happy to have found a video showing me how to actually use it in a real world situation!! Thanks a lot for making this awesome video! I will experiment with them myself and use what I understood to come up with something nice.

Joey, you're gradually making me fall in love with Geometry Nodes.

[Savigo.]

Keep in mind, blending between 2 shapes will only work if both objects have the same topology type. For example you cannot mix susane with the donut, because donut has a hole.

Truly great video. There are many tutorials for beginners that try to explain how geometry nodes work and they just casually use the position, normal, index, and all the other Fields nodes without any explanations. As if they think we are automatically supposed to know everything that you've discussed during this nine-minute video.

Thank you very much, very helpful

[appdeveloper]

you are perfectly and smoothly explaining certain concepts that I was struggling to understand for months. Tutorials all over the internet are just a waste of time. they are all about how, not WHY. Thank you, very much appreciated. Anyway wants to learn GN must be directed to your channel first before going anywhere to save his life and time from burning.

Bro that morphing tool is so underrated! You may need to make a new video with its own title do that people can find it. Really tho, I've always wanted to know how to morph 2 objects

the blender 3.4 version has delete the transfer attribute node, replaced it with the sample nearest and sample index nodes, so if you are using the new version, you can adjust a little bit, and the mix rgb node is also replaced by mix node, but you can change the pulldown list and select the color to use the node in the old way. i spend half any hour to figure out the change in new version, hope to have some help

The best tutorial I've watched about fields! Very well explained!

[ianmcc]

I often use some of these nodes but never quite understood why. Thanks for the explanations!

Actually a function is a cross product relation between preimage space and image space with only one preimage for every image. But I liked the very descriptive explanation. Good job.

[marcosdavifernandes]

Amazing video and teachings, thank you! 🙌

[Vilde]

every time I search for anything Blender related your videos about it come up .. XD nice

[jadetrujillo]

I have been trying to figure out how exactly these all work for months now, thank you so much :3

[manmadeartists]

These node explanation videos are gold! Thank you so much!

[wentaofeng]

Great Tutorial! It actually took me a lot of time to understand why field nodes like position node have no input. I use Grasshopper a lot for parametric design, but when I started trying Geo Nodes in Blender, nodes like position really bothers me because I dont understand which geometry's position data it is gathering. I initially thought it gather the position data from whichever geometry the Geo Nodes modifier is assigned to....but then I realized another problem, how to get the position data of another object? Because blender does not seem to have a position node with geometry

[Nyubug]

Thank you so much! Hope we get more in-depth videos like this :)

[tiagogiraovideos]

Super well explained. Now I understand it better. Thanks

[Levendo]

I did not know you could morph with mixRGB node. Thanks!

[joseterran]

you really know how to explain, great tutorial!

[shiro]

Well done Sir, an excellent example well executed. Thank you.
