Making a Video Wall in Blender - Breakdown/Tut

New here, starting from the bottom! Great tutorial, was a bit intimidated by everything happening cause im beginner in Blender, but a couple of searches and I was good!

Still trying to figure out how you built the initial screen. Nothing works as I expect it. Thats funny.

GENIUS. This stuff is perfect, in terms of where I am on my Blender journey! Just became a patron of yours and am going to go through EVERY single thing I can possibly soak up from here.

This video is so cool, thanks a lot. btw, if my wife knew how deeply in love I am with those displays in the Dynamo Dream teaser, she would feel jealous :D

I have been thinking about the video texture load as well... if you have to break a video out into a frame sequence for efficient playback, why not composite 2 or more into tiles? Then use the UV mapping to select the part you want. Heck you could also tile the same video but with a time offset so that Blender isn't loading up the same texture multiple times for the frame offset... Just a thought, havent tried it yet

Ian Hubert

That's SO crazy handy- thank you! :D

Ian, selecting all the edges on an object at once is Ctrl+Alt+Shift+LeftClick.. just figured it out :)

How would you go about putting the wave texture on something rounder like a CRTV and keeping the straight lines?

Patrick Lever

Bro you make it look so easy lol 😂👍🏾 thank you here's my 7$ #keepfilming

I'm super new to Blender, and the ease & speed with which you roll through everything I would consider mind-blowingly complex is the most motivating thing in the world thank you so much for this!!

Sweeh

Ian Letarte

2:20 use the short cut: Ctrl+Shift+Alt+Select. :)

Ian Hubert

Honestly that's basically the only thing I use AE for these days, haha. Just a bit of diffusion and grain. I should totally just do it in the blender compositor, though- there's probably a plugin and everything. But yeah! My goal for this year is to try to do a bunch of the compositing stuff in blender as much as possible, if for no other reason than having my 3d workflow and compositing workflow as close together as possible is SO nice (I can't believe how many years it took me to actually just put a pre-keyed person on a 2d layer in the scene. Shadows and reflections for freeeeee)

Ian Hubert

AH! That's it! Oh man you just saved me hours and hours of future effort. Thank you so much!

shonal bose

yes please more detail tuts.....

First tut as a patreon, i've already learn so much! Totaly worthy! Thx Ian

Fried Gold.

I'd be interested on how you do your film grain. Is that done in Blenders compositor or some AE plugin? Do you even use AE anymore?

Awesome tutorial. It's amazing to watch the master at work. "I can turn on keystroke visualizations" Yes please!.

Amazing tutorial !! Thank you very much! at 2:13 the shortcut Ian is trying to remember it's Ctrl+Alt+LMB, that's for selecting an "edge ring" (not edge loop).

Thanks for the awesome tutorial man. Great!

Chipp Walters

Yeah, this is a great format. One learns so much from just watching you work.

Ian Hubert

Cool! I hope this format's still useful. It's definitely not as curated as the lazy tuts, but... they're a lot faster to make, haha

Ian Hubert

Awh, not at all! Thanks so much for your support!!

Thanks for being so generous with your knowledge (and humor)

Jan van den Hemel

This is great!

Ian Hubert

Oh man yes!!! I love that effect so much.

Awesome tutorial as always! One thing I like doing is making an LCD style affect using the separate RGB nodes to create a chroma effect that looks like individual pixels, it gives off a realistic Moire effect at certain angles too.
