I'm a 3D artist and I made this channel to share some of the creations that I make during my off hours, or "After Hours", from my day job as a video editor. Some examples of the things that I create are satisfying loops, rigid body and soft body physics simulations, fluid, smoke, and fire simulations, character animation, motion tracking, camera solving, and vfx. Blender is my 3D tool of choice, but I sometimes use others and enjoy checking out new options.

This Is How The YouTube Algorithm Works
The CZcams algorithm be like...
This 3D animation is a visual representation of how the CZcams Algorithm works... well this is how it seems!
I made this in Blender and put together the sound in Adobe Premiere.
The idea for this came from several videos that I posted that got thousands of views in less than an hour and then the view count suddenly falls off a cliff to zero like CZcams pulled the plug and stopped letting people see my videos in their feed. Of course people aren't going to watch if they never even get a chance.

This video is a satire of how the CZcams algorithm works and is intended as entertainment. Ironically, this is probably closer to reality in many cases.

How To Set Up Multipass Denoising In Blender and Why You Should
zhlédnutí 4,5KPřed rokem
Hi there! In this tutorial, I explain in detail how to set up denoising for your renders. I cover basic denoising and also show you how to set up multipass denoising for even better results. This is a great guide to help you make renders better. I personaly use this technique as much as I can in my projects, and it has become part of my regular workflow in the compositing tab.

In this breakdown, I'll go over how I used blender to create this animation of a car racing through city streets. I'll discuss HDRI lighting, kitbash, asset browser, CC-BY license, downloading assets, compositing, denoising, output formats, image sequences, and much more! This is not a tutorial of those individual techniques, but it is more of a breakdown and general overview of my workflow and...

I fucking hate animating in Blender
Awesome! I guess there's not much you can do if rendering in Eevee though?
I’m sure there’s a way, it would definitely be in the node set up. I’m mostly a cycles guy.
@@AfterHours-3D-vfx I actually switched to Cycles with Blender 4.2 but am having a bit of an issue... my HDRI is no longer visible at all. Is there maybe a setting I missed with the Mix Color node?
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you man!
Just what I was looking for, thanks!!
This actions change my main object rotation. How can i fix this?
This actions change my main object rotation. How can i fix this?
I could literally kiss you.Thanks so much❤
What if I want denoise passes for Nuke? Because sometimes I get the z and crytomatte with artifacts any fix for that?
I’m not sure about nuke, I haven’t tried that. I am working on an update to this video to clean up more noise and artifacts, especially banding in the darker area. Maybe that will help.
@@AfterHours-3D-vfx I am asking what I want to export the individual passes not only for nuke
I haven’t tried anything like that but in blender if you open your multilayer exr files there’s an option to connect each pass separately in the node tree for editing. Since the data is there, I think you should be able to do the same in other programs. But you also could try to only connect and render one pass at a time. This would take longer, but all your passes would be separate and you could connect them anyway you want in nuke or anything else. I apologize, but I haven’t tried using anything like that.
This is exactly what I needed, thanks!
i did verything like in this video and it did not help much....
Depending on your scene you might still have to increase your samples. You can also get rid of some noise in dark areas sometimes by rendering at a brighter exposure and then lowering the exposure back down in a video editor.
Thanks so much for this quick tutorial :)
Great video! Thank you!
Amazing! Thank you so much for your tutorial. Huge improvement to final renders details.
Really helpful thank you mate !
This left a white film in place of the reflection. :-/ I wonder if one of the recent updates changed the way that light path node behaves or something.
Stumped me for a hot minute, but then I realised because the Mix RGB node is now called Mix Colour and has new features, it's blend mode defaults to "Mix" and you have to switch it to "colour". Not to be confused with the Data type drop down. If you've done it right both drop downs boxes will say "colour." Hope you figured that out when you needed it.
I'm making an animated model of the solar system. This has REALLY helped me out. Thanks!
@AfterHours Can you or someone explain the logic behind the node set up he used? What is "Is glossy Ray " ?
Thank you so much. It was so helpfulll
Just what I needed, thanks!
I only watched half the video bt couldn't you just have used Delta transformations?
Make sure you move the last key frame to frame #91 though, or else you'll get 2 frames of 360 degrees (since the first frame at 0 degrees is also 360 degrees). You want the animation to end at 359 degrees and start at 0 degrees. You could also do this by making frame #90 359 degrees of rotation.
Third!
For some reason, the owner object flips mirrors itself everytime the empy spins 90 degrees, if that makes sense. It wouldn't be an issue if I had a consistent material, but the asymetric material makes the flip very obvious
Thanks a lot!
Working stuff !!!
hi every time i render the glass is turning black i have no idea how to fix it any help
increase light bounces in glossiness and transparency may be ? if it's still actual 🙂
how can i make this work with film/transparent background?
That worked when nothing else I tried did.
Awesome exaclty my issue! Thank you for the precise and clear explanation.
Thank you! Also HELP: But why isn't it working if I now parent the rotated object to another obect so that (in your example) the red object would be the child which is attached to, lets say a moving object. Thx in advance if you have any ideas :)
(Because if I do so, the emoty is not having any effect anymore)
You say "this is a great guide to help you make renders better". I say "I agree 100%". Thanks.
Thank GOD (you)
This is amazing man. I have a volume object for fog in the viewport but it wasn't added in the composite that way. How could I add the volumetric fog in this composite?
Don't know if you're still needing an answer, but this should solve compositing volumes: i.stack.imgur.com/pHxX5.jpg
thank you I exactly want to know how to setup volumeDir and volumeInd.
hey, can this node setup fix the flickering issue (fireflies) in animation.
Yes, it can help a lot depending on your project. The video that I recommended here in my video goes into a lot more detail about that.
Great Tutorial! Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
So ... I have a black plane (as a background backdrop) right on top of the object I'm making a render. This causes the black plane to cast a shadow on the object I want the hdri to affect. Is there a way that I can make the black plane appear in the render as opaque without having the hdri affect it or cast a shadow?
thx bro
Welcome
Thank you!
You're welcome!
So helpful thanks a lot!
Glad it helped!
Good day. I have a question for you. How do I hook up the glare node to this setup? Thanks.
I usually put it somewhere near the end of the chain but it’s a little bit of trial and error.
What about when the object needs to be parented to the empty?
do you know how to fix the objects getting a purple reflection? even though no textures are missing?
If it has a purple reflection, probably because your HDRI isn’t loading. Sometimes this happens especially if you move files around. Try to relink to the HDRI.
@@AfterHours-3D-vfx alr ill try that thanks!!!
is it possible to do it just with one mesh in particoular? and not for all the scene? Thank you
Thank you so much!
You're welcome!
You sir, saved my life. Needed to make a train follow a custom track and none of the other videos made the wheel rotate. You helped me. Awesome, gonna recommend it to everyone.
Glad I could help!
Thank you !! I couldn't figure it out this worked great!
You're welcome!
Simple and straight to the point, thank you!!
Thank you!
Yesterday I made another contribution - today the post has been deleted! WHY ?
I haven’t deleted anything. It must be something CZcams is doing
@@AfterHours-3D-vfx I think it's removing posts that contain links - or at least quarantining these posts for manual review/approval.
