Texture Animation | Import Any Video Into Blender With Animated Image Texture or Video Texture

In this tutorial, we have discussed how to import any video file into Blender as a texture. This is done through Image Texture with some suitable settings. It can be used for a running TV screen or any surface where you want to display a video clip or an image sequence instead of a static picture. Please watch the video for the complete tutorial. If you have any question on this tutorial, please leave your comment below.

This is Soooo helpful literally anytime i have a problem I look and you have a video for it.

[yairyamagucci]

This was exactly the information I needed. Thank you

[adriannafilipamartins]

Man, you're rocks! Thank You for your course !!! I've learned so much!!!

[texanfoxy]

I was just about to find and watch some tutorial about how to do that, but I found this video in my recomendations. Thanks a lot buddy, this helped me pretty well!

[brgle]

Subscribed. Simple and straight to the point. I could have figured out most of it, but seeing someone else always helps tremendously :') thank you!

[SILLYGREMLIN]

I turned the fish spinning to funky town for 10 hours into a texture.

[arch.blender]

Blender is sooo cool, thank you for sharing this workflow

[Nortic]

Thankyou for this very useful tutorial (and for bringing back nostalgic Tom & Jerry memories)!

[PCXT]

Wow! Amazing! Save a lot of time to me! thanks!🤩

[kenzietownsend]

Auto refresh helped at 4:14 . I also did this equation Frame rate * seconds of video clip and put that in the frames box

[jikosauce]

Literally exactly what i was looking for. I want to learn by trial and error but theres way too many specifics, i have no choice but to have it shown to me

[bardiapirouzy]

First like then watch.
That's what I am doing for your great sharings.

[bentcrazy]

I hope this isn't in the exam!!! Great video but I'll have to watch it 50 time for the info to sink in.

[santhoshmg]

Awesome. I don't know we can play video inside blender object. before I was watching this video thankyou

[sportsonpoint]

For me blender is most amazing app next to photoshop..it amaze me everyday

[TheSillybits]

Great tutorial, thanks. I have (maybe a very silly) question: suppose you have 2 or more cameras in a blender scene, would it be possible to cast 1 camera view to a “screen” instead of the Tom & Jerry clip and have another camera displaying the scene from another angle? I hope its understandable what I am trying to ask!

[teetoe]

great vid! i do have a question tho, my imported video is 37 sec long (23.98 fps), when i import it to blender it speeds up to about 18 sec in the viewport
i tried matching the viewport fps to my original vid but im still getting the same issue
im wondering how i can slow down my video to match the original?

[Silver_Fox_Weirdo]

One cool thing its possible use video for dynamic effects with alpha channel(png image sequences)

[xophel]

after adding the texture, mine is not showing the video but a blank pink screen. this just happening for videos as my images are working absolutely fine. can you please help?

[aphaits]

If I have a video texture that I want to start playing on a certain frame, how do you do that?
like lets say there's 2 video textures that I want to start playing at frame 100 and frame 300 separately.
