How I Animated this HUGE 3D scene...in Blender!

Lewis, few things could make this good to great. An absolute beautiful animation, camera movement, and detail to the shot closest to camera. I can’t compete. However, we’re always improving, here’s my feedback.The castle that is 3D, keep it as such. Seems like you made it a 2d background. However subtle it seems, it builds realism, if you kept it with camera movement. Goal of VFX is to be in the shadows. Regardless, color grade, whoever did it, ruined the scene, before color grading, it was Hollywood level. We can’t be good at it everything. This is just criticism of something with great potential.

Lovely!

love this breakdowns broo you kill it!!

Do you by chance have a patreon where you post your used assets such as clouds, background, models?

Brilliant job! I think it lacked more sound-design a bit, like screams, more ambient, background battle noises etc, but the overall render is amazing!

Absolutely amazing what one talented and disciplined person can do alone in free software these days!
Incredible...

So this guy didn't really animate a bear. He just used a pre-build system and put it inside the bear. I thought he made this all from scratch.

Great video! and this was rendered in cycles right ?

You should add bear noises, like a grunt when it does the head but

I have no clue about all these things, but it's amazing to watch anyway! Can u tell how long it took to make this scene in hours round about?

misses the power, maybe its the sound design

You should organise a blender step by step training in animation...Please will you?

Thanks

Great animation, but the sound is really bottlenecking it. (is that a word?)

Great video but VERY underwhelmed by their comments or lack thereof on your video, a cemetery has more life.

Hi Werner Herzog

Truly Amazing bro

I wonder where are all the sounds come from? did you record all of them one by one??

7th time watching this omg

ngl w/o context itll mistakenly think this was part of Skyrim Online cinematic trailers

I love it

Huge, massive smiles watching this!!! Well-earned and deserved!

so good!! and the breakdown is very useful to see

that looked absolutely awesome

Beautiful! Great and inspiring work! Thank you for the breakdown!

That’s epic as hell

I would so loveeee to ride that bear in a game!

well 4 minutes is not enough XD

crazy!

Very good ❤

Pretty cringey but good for you.

Is that Captain Disillusion's intern right there?

How much time it took to render and can you please tell me your PC specifications.

Joe Rogan’s favorite bear video!

Sounds can be better.

This. Is. Awesome!!

The way the rider braced for impact with the second soldier was impressive.

This is great, and awesome work, truly inspiring.
What are your computer specs ? Is this doable with a mid-range PC ?

masterpiece. while this is far better than anything i'll probably ever make, the 1 thing i'd change is projecting that background matte painting over some simplified geometry for the mountains and fortress for some extra depth

but wait, how did you make the graphics in this video!?

You are inspiration bro

Yes, and it only took 3m47s to do from top to bottom! Some artists do this sort of breakdowns and make it look so easy, but reality is entirely different - a video with the failed attemps in the search for this resul would span for a full week, AFTER EDITING the cursing upon failure after failure, and the waiting time just for the tests, haha :D

thanks broo its work thxxxx

Lewis, mate, you've got to get a job recording audiobooks, such a great, calming voice.
great work, too.

where do you even begin to learn stuff like this. Self taught or starting with classes?

this is epic

Hours of work explained in seconds 🤩

Now all I need to know is how this could be done in cycles.

there is a lot of work in a short scene, that looks great well done
