About the course

In this course I wanted to focus on using Blender as a tool for 3D Visual Effects so we can create captivating worlds and bring them to the big screen. We will start by learning all of Blender's tools and basics, then we will dive into the exciting world of camera tracking to where you'll be able to track any footage you want, Next we'll go over compositing in Blender and some of the amazing tools to make your renders stand out, and then finally we'll create a huge 3D scene from scratch and take you through the entire process of creating professional looking Visual Effects all inside of Blender. We will be covering 5 individual complete VFX shots with a ton more examples showcasing a multitude of different scenarios you might encounter. Of course all of the assets and footage I use will be provided for you to follow along.

Jacob Zirkle

Hi everyone! I'm trilled to be your instructor for this course. I've lead many VFX projects for brands such as Nvidia, LoReal, and Hulu. In my free time, I love teaching VFX on youtube and other forms to help the next generation of VFX Artists. When I was learning the art of VFX, there weren't many resources piled together to learn the different aspects of VFX. Because of this, it took me way longer to learn and so now I want to speed up the process for you all. I hope you learn a lot from this course and can make VFX and life-long career!
