How I made a Car Short Film in Blender - BTS

Making Animated Short Films take time - A long time... This is my story about how I remade the Baby Driver 180 in-out drift into a little action sequence - The way I always wanted it to have been.

I hope it will encourage you all to dive into Blender and make awesome animations for the world to see!!

About Launch Control (LC) ►
If you want to make realistic-looking car animations in Blender in no time, LC is the tool for you!

It's built around 3 different parts of the process:
1. Automatic Rigging (One-Click Rigging of 4-wheeled cars)
2. Animation with presets for quick results
3. Physics simulations that bake fast and can be modified in real-time

LC strives to make vehicle animation accessible and eliminates the usual problems you stumble over, when turning your action-sequence dreams into reality (a virtual reality, that is).

The simple interface packs a ton of power and in the "Manual Gearbox" you have a world of customization options to tune LC to your liking.

Honestly this is the reason that I don’t give up on blender, with masters like yourself blender becomes so much more then just free open software, this is true industry standard work. I know it is a cliche right now but please consider creating an in depth course that really delves into your thought process and problem solving, cheers mate

I mistakenly read this thumbnail title as “Making a film in a blender”, and my immediately thought… isn’t that how Hollywood makes all movies these days?

I didnt even think about doing car smoke with png's and a particle system, you just opened my third eye holy, ty <3

Amazing how in just the past decade Blender is now capable of this. Really cool!

Imagine: how good it will be when there is actual sounds of every object and environment

Great Film Sequence and really good breakdown of how you pulled it off. Thanks for posting all the challenges you ran into and how you got around them. I'm off to check out more of your videos! Thanks again for posting.

Better than naming your cameras after frames is to give them names like Shot-01, Shot-02 etc. You'll be able to add additional shots simply by going down the alphabet or like this -> Shot-01a. This detaches you from a frames driven naming convention and will make more sense in the edit where things are shuffled around and often come from different animation files/timelines. LOVE the tip for binding cameras to timeline makers tho!

This is truly amazing.. I really hope you could do a complete step by step tutorial on this... From building the city with Hdmi maker all the way to lighting, animation and final render.

I really hope you consider that.

Thanks a lot

i've never thought blender could do this

This looks amazing! Only things that catches my eye are the speed of recovery and accelerations of the Bronco after landing, the sports car restarting and the speed of the stop when the police approach at the end. They need more time to accelerate and decelerate to be believable. Feel like toys.

This is AMAZING!! Thank you for your time making this!

Very Baby Driver-ish (the car stunt movement). Awesome reference!

[GrrahamH]

This is crazy ! Honestly amazing work currerntly learning blender so this just gives me motivation to keep learning

[lsingalong]

to create thing like this would take me my whole life

[akshayakhi]

Great work,
modelling, texturing, lighting, rigging, animation, rendering, compositing, screenplay all are excellent

[Kalikux]

Camera work is insane anyway i can improve on mastering this kind of stuff

[dr.kauffman]

Nice Job, dude!! Looks like The Car Album cover D:
(Arctic Monkeys latest album)

[ivo-andrade]

I look amazing! Fair play doing it all by yourself!

This is very interesting, I am a beginner in this field, I started making some trailers using mainly AI technology, but I love learning Blender too.

good enough for a game
still a work of art, no doubt
