How I Make Any Environment Instantly Look Better With Volumetrics - Blender Tutorial

In this one I'll how you a very simple and easy setup for adding beautiful volumetrics to your scene. I use this technique in almost every single render I create.

The anisotropy setting changes how the light scatters through the volume, for anyone who's curious. A value of 0 makes light scatter evenly in all directions, creating a stronger diffusion effect, a value of 1 makes it scatter forward through the volume with less diffusion, and negative values makes the light scatter backwards.

Volumetrics just make any scene 10000x better, the shadows and light rays, everything makes more sense, thanks for the video

Fresh off the donut tutorial, didn't know crap about volumetric lighting, now my scene looks WAY better. Thanks for the clear and concise tutorial!

Thanks bro! Love your content, I’ve been wondering how people do fog this clears it up for me

Great video, man. A tip I saw from another video is adding a noise texture to make the volume randomized. Still, awesome work!

1:00 The hardest thing about blender for me lately is that there is no official special location to keep the source assets that you'll be instancing for re-use elsewhere in the scene. Sometimes I shove them under the floor. Sometimes I put them 100m behind the camera. Sometimes I put them in a different Scene. All of these approaches have DRAWBACKS that are annoying.

Nice tutorial, and I loved the final render, give me Shadow Of The Tomb Raider vibes :)

[omarakhtar]

Love your work and tutorials. One quick question though, why do you use the Volume Scatter node instead of the Principled Volume?

[avramitra]

Coming from r/blender. Great tutorial. Thanks. :)

Amazing vid as always!
Can you do a tutorial on your camera settings ? I ve been trying to match yours but it always looked off

[NkRiot]

Amazing work as always! Thank you!!
Would you perhaps mind showing us how you animate your emission photos in a Glitch tech format style? Like in some of your animate renders? I know Ian Hubert does an alternative way with using UVmapping on meshes and liner extrapolation on the node wrangler, but so curious how you do that with a image plane :) any helps. Thank you again 🙏
