Once again the production quality on what would be a “simple” video is insane

Agreed. How is this animated, out of interest?
Just so you know, these videos do a great job motivating us to add more features to geometry nodes :D

This animation style and voice reminds me of Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. So well done. Top notch work every time.

It might be just me, but I get *heavy* LittleBigPlanet vibes from these videos. I love it
holy shi- the presentation quality in this video is top notch I tend to be quite on top of latest blender releases but i gotta admit that lately they've been slam dunking so many new nodes and features that i can hardly keep up 😅 Keep these comin' can't wait to see more from you!

I can't believe how good your production is! Great humor too! I would love it if you made a behind the scenes on how you did all the animations. I too would love to make informative animations.
Noo I needed too see how to use the Viewport transform node 😭 What a cliff hanger, impatiently waiting for next video!

Before geometry nodes there were animation nodes addon. Strangely, Jaques adding features to geometry nodes step by step, replicating what he already done once for the addon.
I love your custom theme!
one of best tutorial with effort video making
your videos animation is just beautiful. Also great voice.
Dude thanks for this great Video! Also I am equally excited and pissed that I spend the last month on painstakingly crafting my branching system and extrusions following curves tool to see that some of the new Group ID options would have made things sooo much easier
Very superb and simple explanation... Missing one important tool that everybody is talking about..

Would love a better understanding of the matrix stuff. Great video!
Can't wait for all the math videos 😂
Serious Q - even if some people might be triggered... Is there any ability to have a CLI to type/speak/prompt nodes? "Take Zuzanne and instance her around the ponts on Icosphere2 and make the scale match cube 7's random color ramp." Like, I mean, what have you guys been doing over there?
I have no idea why I'm being reminded of the Stanley Parable, but it's a compliment
Sweet nodes, i should watch a full tutorial on nodes at some point, and learning the math too...

nodes are sweet with an unpredictable punch of hot sauce
I never thought we would ever get matrices… Oh my lord is this going to change everything… if they add matrix math. Edit: well I looked at the notes and there’s invert and multiply nodes, so this should be fantastic for a start!
while the matrix nodes make me exceptionally excited im just not quite infinitely excited like i should because tHERES STILL NOTHING FOR SHADER NODES yes the ray portal node is death defyingly powerful even in its early stage and i am excited for it but GOD it hurts that geom nodes is getting so many quality of life stuff while shader nodes has practically been untouched ._.
How can you make this quality video for such a simple node update information video? your editing skills are amazing.
Without asking what the secret sauce is behind creating these animations (apart from graft, sweat and sheer bloody brilliance) I assume Blender plays the biggest role (for obvious reasons)? Or is it a whole other beast?

I use Blender, OBS for capture, Premier for editing and Photoshop to create various assets along the way. I occasionally use After Effects for very specific moments but the bulk of the work is blender capture edited in premier. The majority of the node/noodle moves are simply me puppeteering them with OBS set to not capture the cursor. I also use a dry erase marker. A lot. It’s in my hand so often I mostly store it in my mouth when I need both hands for mouse and keyboard. I have to keep track of positioning/spacing somehow and the analogue of drawing on my screen has proved the best way. People ask a lot for a how-to for my style and I’m hesitant mostly because it’s not one simple answer - it’s dozens of techniques accumulated over years of animation experience. I’m planning to start a patreon this summer and one of the things I might offer there is a comprehensive guide on how I make these videos. But for now (ironically) it’s not really in keeping with the subject of this channel.

@@harryblends Thank you. That’s fascinating to hear. The writing and delivery shines through, so it’s great to hear the animation is mainly human powered. That explains a lot of the appeal. I naively hoped you had found some kind of programmatic solution (like the 3Blue1Brown ‘Manim’ tool) but we’re not there yet are we? I would jump at the chance to get a peek behind the scenes at your workflow one day. Just out of curiosity have you posted any more of your work online?
Hmmm. Interesting that blender is moving also toward game development 🤔 whereas as unreal is moving toward film production, I think some day Blender will be so powerful that it might replace all adobe suits + video editing platforms + game engine and so on , that's crazy, what do u think ?
Wait for click? Is there a layer of making an application with blender geometry nodes that I am not aware of? Or does this effectively enable that? Like - if it has input text node, then wait for click node - couldnt you make a blenter viewer based geometry nodes app?
One can easily tell by the content and editing that this wasn't done by a hobbyist. Do you offer any courses I might throw money at, by chance?
You can smell them cooking!!

How are you animating the nodes and noodles like that?
viewport transform ? I need to look this up now , does that mean i will be able to change things based on my in editor view port position , which means I can finally create a LOD system, to save increase performance and save on memory for creating huge scenes. Maybe I can even have a fun editor HUD system and be able to test out game views before exporting to an engine ... please please be true, the camera pos hack was useless for this use case . Thanks for the vid , very useful changes to know
