Tutorial: Create this Satisfying 3D Animation in Blender

In this blender tutorial we use 3D animation, fluid and smoke simulations, to create a super satisfying animation!

Make sure to check the "Mesh" option in the Fluid Domain settings around the 8:30 mark if you can't see any fluid. (Missed that step in the video edit.) Have fun - and can't want to see some dope animations! 🔥

i love when new tutorials come out, watching the old ones are stressful

they do something that doesn’t in blender anymore and you have to find and alternative that’ll work with everything you just did

Big suggestion: try to down-scale your webcam or put it where it isn't necessary to look. In many many tutorials your face covers crucial parts of the screen, hope it is just a distraction of your own. Your tutorials are so dope, it would be awesome to see less your face and more what you do.

(also a keyboard reader on-screen would be appreciated, tutorials would be easier to follow)
Thank you for the great contents you publish on YT

Something that is not mentioned that might have helped if it was mentioned, is making sure the mesh option is ticked in the domain settings, not sure what settings are used within that, but you want see anything without that option ticked.

this reminds me of what the corridor crew did, but done by a superior youtuber

Me as a beginner - intermediate artist : This was lit satisfaction, thanks for the great tutorial!!

[SnoopThePunk]

So nice! I like that you moved to a more compact video tutorials.
Cause i think the majority of Blender users are more intermediate level, and dont have patience for beginner tut, always.
And you kind sir, have so much to teach us.thx

Thanks for the tutorial and the effort, but i found it really hard to follow when it came to simulation. I am an intermediate user and used both mantaflow and flip fluids a bit. However, the speed you go over things, skip steps and the general buggyness of mantaflow frustrated me massively. Even after checking the mesh checkbox, things did not work out and I stopped after trying for an hour. Maybe next time focus on getting the simulation setup right, which objects you disable and so on and so forth. the editing makes it difficult to follow. Another example of this is the applying the boolean at frame 40... which you never mention. Not trying to be negative here, but I find the speed and the lack of context does not really help me understand your idea, but makes me blindly mimic what you do. If I get it right, i learned not too much, if I miss a step, I am frustrated. Sorry for the negative feedback, appreciate your work and effort a lot!

Looks great, but unfortunately that planar tex mapping makes the sphere look a bit weird when it rolls away, as you described with the texturing earlier for the cube, otherwise, brilliant!

[nigeljdean]

Overall an excellent tutorial. There are numerous issues (20+, resulting mainly from the webcam obscuring the settings and steps missing from the tutorial due editorial cuts.) However, these issues turned out to be beneficial as I learnt more resolving these issues than blindly following a tutorial. I managed to successfully complete, resolve all the issues and set-up the final product to my own requirements. Recommended!

The animation choice is awesome, CG Geek. One thing that would sell the effect more would be to have the ring spin around the sphere while it was in the process of melting, rather than revealing the hot ring and making the assumption. The bars on the side only work if you're looking for them, but the realization only hits after the fact.

This is going to be a fun one to play with! I've already got some ideas for it. :)
And I'll get to test out my wife's new laptop. I bought her a decent Dell G15 laptop with a 3050 GPU in it, so I'm going to test it against my six year old desktop with it's Titan X.
I'll be sure to post a link here in the comments to the animation I come up with. :)

This guy speaks faster than a rapper. If it wasn't for the results, I would have stopped.

If a “tutorial” isn’t at least an hour for something as complex as this I can’t take it seriously

[eddyalienstudio]

This is a decent tutorial, but you do block a lot of the important parts and your talking speed is a bit too quick, I had to slow it down using Playback Speed setting

[ribbit]

You wearing an All too well sweater!!!, makes us swifties overjoyed!! 😄

[aminjl_art]

Thanks for the Tuts, but would have been great if you placed yourself on screen somewhere out of the Timeline, I know CC can help but not like seeing the timeline ourself...

[antoabishek]

Yesterday only I was thinking that why cg geek is not posting videos but here it is!!

[marc-io]

Watching somebody creating a satisfying animation is so satisfying

Your voice will be permanently etched into my head until I die
