EXCLUSIVE Rhino Tutorial: you're probably drawing wrong

This is the first video of a multi-part video series where I demonstrate a better way of producing drawings through Rhino. Too much time is spent converting 3D models into 2D drawings in Rhino. This tutorial series will show you how to entirely skip 2D drawings such that you can draw, edit, review, and design at a faster pace. This tutorial should be useful for architecture students, practitioners, and anyone using Rhino.

These things are life-changing. I don't understand how I've not ever found these in 2 years of using rhino. Thanks!

I used this to get a FLIR effect for my thesis and it was such a godsend for animating cameras in Rhino without any post processing or video editing. So glad you’re showing people more practical applications. Looking forward to your deeper layout series!!

Such great tutorials, and great work Niko. You're helping us uncover so many new approaches and workflows to using Rhino, and you make it really approachable. Every time I watch one of your video's I add about half a dozen new commands to my Rhino vocabulary. Really appreciate it. x

Goodbye illustrator!

If you don't want to see the horizon line of the ground plane but you want to keep the ground shadows then just set the projection type from parallel to perspective and set the lens length to something like 5000.

So much useful info packed into this video. New favorite tutorial page

Dear Nikol. Thank you for responding so quickly.

Something happened: while I was creating a simple new scene on a default Rhino template, the problem magically disappeared, . For some reason, this problem only appears in the specific file I was working on. The challenge is figuring out which option I changed that caused the problem. Anyway, thanks a lot for your help.

Definitely mind blowing how much rhino can achieve! Best tutorials on YouTube. Is it possible to share your awesome display template with us? Thank you Niko!

I'm really enjoying your videos by far. I wonder if it's possible to make a video about generating mutiple diagrams within Rhino? As shown in 1:10 - 1:32. Thanks a ton!

Bro you’re to Rhino what Pix Imperfect is to photoshop. Love your channel. Please can you show a guide on creating a rhino template for all drawings?
