I've tried to recreate in Blender a scene I had in Cinema for a class I was teaching, and omg it took me HOURS to recreate a simple scene (it was a soft ball colliding with a cube). Passing the difficulties, Blender it's a very powerful tool and it's impressive the quality it offers (rendering and modeling) for free. Good luck on the journey! haha
Something twisted about watching someone else struggle through learning the same thing I did a year or two ago. C4D user since version 6. Love it. Switched to Blender for my students - who can not afford C4D. Different but good times.
I first started my 3D journey in Blender for a year, then I tried C4D+Octane, and now after seeing all of these new Blender 3.0 features and tutorials I’m definitely thinking I’m gonna go back to Blender for good.
Yes, you absolutely should use what feels right. Blender is interesting to me because of the large community base, the render engines it supports, and it free!
Because I have been using Cinema 4D for 4years, it only took me two weeks to learn Blender just to discover many easy and beautiful features in this program. My advice to you is to use Blender, it is a wonderful software
Yes, me too! But I think it’s important to try new things even if they might not be a perfect fit. For me, learning Blender is just for fun. There are not enough paying jobs that you would use it with. That will for sure be changing in the near future I believe.
looking forward for more blender videos like this.. I am a cinema 4d user currently learning houdini and a little blender3D. I am amazed by the development of Blender and GeoNodes and I think blender is really good. but sometimes I see very complex Geonode setup that is so easy to do in cinema 4d and easy setups in blender that is hard in cinema 4D haha..
Thanks for this video, as a C4D user I have considered moving over the Blender for a long time after seeing what they and the community have built. I might have to join you and make the jump!
If you are interested, give it a shot. It can’t hurt. For me, I am not making a full switch yet, just testing it. It’s also good to know what is out there. I believe Blender will come into studios more as these user base comes more into the workforce. Thanks for your support 🤜🤛
To my opinion, Cinema 4D is mostly mouse & UI focused, meaning that everything has to be doable and accessible with a mouse. Where Blender is mostly keyboard focused, lots of functionnalities aren't made for being used with a mouse. Just like Going in Camera View, moving objetcs in space, adding objects or navigating views. I think that's why you're so lost in there x)
Blender remind me on old joke about man which carry heavy anvil trough jungle. Because if he meet lion he can throw anvil and run faster. Blender offer ( push ) some 'advanced' functionality which.... not so many people use, but stuff which everyone constantly use are ...... crippled. Blender is not keyboard focused... better to say he is unfocused. So many stuff are unpractical, illogical, overcomplicated. For example, you simply make TFD deformer as child of object and you are done... In Blender? There is too many such stupidity. In short, Blender is capable but Stupid software... at least for my taste.
@@xanzuls I take look on your channel....Well, at least you use Blender.... Most of people which defend Blender use it occasionally, or don't use it at all. So I respect your opinion and give serious replay. I don't mention gizmos.... However my statement stay. I use C4D and Blender as main modeling, scene assembly and rendering software. Blender lose in every way. On every Blender advantages there is 10 or more disadvantages. I discuss this many times with Blender "users". btw. I usually avoid to use plugins, scripts, or Addons. But most of my Blender addons are de facto stuff which bring back C4D native functionality to Blender. Don't you consider this as sad? Truth is that Blender are "inspired" with Autodesk, which is ok. in some area. But they oversight C4D workflow functionality. So be happy with your "shortcuts"... until I with one click do stuff which are hassle in Blender.
This video made me smile a lot! After years of using 3dsmax (it was still Discreet) I switched to Blender due to the infamous choices of Autodesk with its products. The first few days I was like you in the video! I have been using Blender for about three years now and believe me I would never go back. Certainly there are some flaws to correct, but to date with version 3 the leap in quality is clearly superior to other more noble programs on the market. However to be honest I still can't work with the camera as I want, but I will also be able to do this! Remember, you are not alone !! Hahhahahahahaha :)
Ha well I’m glad I could bring a little joy through my suffering! (Not really, I enjoy learning new programs). We will see how it all pans out. Right now Blender is not in the professional motion design world so I think if I were to use it, it would be for personal projects or just for fun. Thanks for your support! 🤜🤛
In the viewport if you click the top left menu and go to view, there is an option to tick that is basically connecting a camera to how you actually navigate normally, if that makes sense.
I'm a Blender 3D user and by watching this, it makes me realize that we all started to be blind. I really want to learn Cinema 4D at first up until now, but I can't afford its price. So, I switched to a free software, where I could still learn the same thing.
Weirdly enough i felt more at home in Houdini than in Blender. Maybe it is cause Houdini is different enough to not expect it to work in a similar way to C4D. I enjoyed watching you struggling in Blender though :D. You mostly see just the results of hard work and never the struggle to get there.
@@YouAndMeAcademy Yeah thats a very deep rabbit hole. I am just starting out and trying to do almost every day 30 mins of tutorials. It should get less painful with time though :]
It's so frustrating to be so well versed in cinema4d yet you can jump into Blender and literally not be able to do anything. I could create a whole scene in an hour on cinema 4d, blender, I might figure out how to move some cubes around. LOL.
I use Blender recently, but I recommend Blender with Industry Compatible. The default shortcuts are not well. In fact, I wrote lots of add-ons to improve Blender. if no new add-ons, Blender is painful in some features.
You're going about it the hardest way possible - just opening it up and trying to figure it out without doing any searching, watching any tutorials or even reading the manual. The Help menu has references to all these things. You should at least read the manual to get a list of the important keys, like TAB, G, Z etc.
The only problem with Cinema 4D, beside of pricing, is the way snap works! Maxon needs to improve that! Like snapping by axis and lock to a reference point.
@@YouAndMeAcademy I mean, snapping works but needs to be impruved for architects and precision modelling! Maxon should do something like Blender or Sketchup in terms of snapping to surface, points, lines, axis constrains, etc.
I started learning c4d but then found out how costly x particles and the insydium plugins for trees etc are. Can these be done in blender? I just want simple dynamic satisfying videos of balls rolling etc. and maybe some basic wind effects or fire etc for my zbrush sculpts. I love c4d interface but the plugins are very costly.
I will just search it out if I get stuck somewhere and can't find an option...because it's always confusing to get into a new UI and software....but what I learned from this is blender need to find a way to make it more user friendly for the first time user( within the software)
it seems like the settings and the menu are all over the UI unlike in C4D and Houdini there something like groupings of settings and parameters. am I right?
Wow seems Blender is a lot different to C4D. Just out of interest i am a long time Blender user, and i find it usually easy to follow a C4D tutorial but using Blender, so in terms of tutorial material you get the best of both worlds.
ok, so W,E,R... not working for me! any ideas? it rotates but its like its tracking to my mouse.. i want the axis to pop up straight away like cinema 4d.. the only way that works for me is to physically click the rotate button
Terrible terrible UI in blender. Everything is hotkeys to try cover for this. I used it professionally for a year before moving our studio to c4d. Simple bliss
in blender download page-- bottom of the page there are videos of blender interface , after watching those videos ,I think blender is easy than c4d .. you never can learn anything in this way ....
I start to use Blender... sometime. Well, he is not so bad.... but for sure is overhyped. Out of box cinema have same modeling capability as Blender, for me Cinema even have slight advantage. But this is just my personal opinion. For sure Blender have some nice features, but also too many stupid disadvantages. Even worse, he is badly designed, like someone intentionally make it confused, illogical, slow, impractical. Stuff are hidden, you can't customize Blender ( NO shortcuts and glorious pie menus are NOT customization ), etc. etc. I can use it, but this is bumpy ride for me. So I use it for some task, mostly rendering. Extrude, cancel, then switch to move tool to move extruded polygons.... Seriously? What about just grab polygon / s press ctrl and drag. You need zillion addons for basic stuff, etc. etc. And I still use R19, four year old software. But hype is hype and people fall on it.
Thanks for your insight on your experiences. It’s hard for me to comment on Blender about its functionality, but I will say that it’s not going anywhere. In my opinion there is currently an army of young 3D artists that are using it. Soon they will move on to use it for professional use. Once that “generation” comes around you will see it integrated into a lot mitre studios. I believe the “hype” is because it’s free. If cigarettes were free I promise you’d see a lot more smokers!
@@YouAndMeAcademy This is all personal... I guess that you know that John Dickinson and Toby currently switch to Blender. Good for them. For me is not issue to watch his Blender videos... Whatever everyone must make his own decision. Blender is free, there is tons of free tutorials - resources and many good commercial ( I mention excellent CGBoost "Launch Pad" ). So why not? Knowing other software is like knowing one more language.
@@xanzuls Ham.... "I Strongly Disagree" with your disagree :D Marketing team behind BF? Look, who talk about Official marketing team... except you? I hate to talk about so obvious mundane stuff... but word overhyped don't have any connection with marketing teams in any company, in any field. Just google word INFLUENCERS, maybe this open your eyes. Internet these days are mess to say it most polite. Yap people switching to Blender, but also people jump out of Blender too. Yap, Blender is more represented in INDUSTRY, he deserve it... But this is all. Do you realize that you sound as typical Blender cultist? Throwing unrelated "facts" just to prove that Blender is our savior, untouchable deity? Like I say, we all have our personal preferences, workflow. I sometime use Blender as PLUGIN for C4D :D Seriously, no joke. Modeling in C4D is breeze, comfortable... In Blender you always must do this to do this, to do this. No 'shortcuts" or "custom pie menu" can replace lack of logic, simplicity, practicality which C4D have. You use C4D too? Well, I talk with many C4D users and see how they use it... or better to say how they don't use it. I don't need source code... I don't want to waste my time with... "customizations" of core software.... I'm just ordinary dude which do stuff in 3D. Whatever, do whatever you want with your time but don't preach others what they must do with his time. Also this is not bumpy ride only in modelling, entire Blender is mess. Again I talk with some C4D users which obviously don't know basic possibilities of C4D and now they think that blender is something special. My final PERSONAL verdict, Blender is MESS... and he newer will be better, because of Blender heads like you. Which is sad, because he have so many potential. I don't upgrade my R19 btw. Have a nice day.
you don't really know blender , there short cuts for every thing you complained about... I recommend blender guru as a tutorial for beginners...if you don't learn the basics of anything, you're bound to have a terrible experience
@@anorepublic1159 Beginners..... I'm afraid that I'm not a beginner, long time ago. You miss point, I can use Blender and I use it. But this is not enjoyable experience.

For anyone watching this, the best thing you can do is follow the donut tutorial first, it shows you all of this. czcams.com/video/nIoXOplUvAw/video.html
Hey Will thanks for the tips! I will have to watch after I put myself through boot camp. These videos are not meant to be tutorials, rather watching someone’s experiences for the first time. Thanks for your support 🤜🤛
@@YouAndMeAcademy I see a lot of people creating a false idea that blender is some kind of black box of pain, and impossible to use, so I just wanted to point out the donut tutorial, so that anyone feeling like this is unusable, has an easy access point,
Hey Will, my goal is to learn, but also show the process of learning something new. When we are learning something new there is a bit of humility and growth that happens. Might be fun to watch the journey 😉
@@YouAndMeAcademy I enjoyed your video, just wanted to point out where people can go to avoid the pain, I understand what you were doing with the video
It's funny to watch a grown man play with the 3d cursor. You'll learn to love it in time it's extremely useful when you get used to it Also it's best to learn blender with it's own hot keys because it's made to work with them then you can customize as you learn
@@YouAndMeAcademy ya every new user is like what is this weird annoying thing till they learn how to use it. its main use is to be the point new objects are added, but it can be used as a pivot point, a thing to snap objects to and so much more.
No. 3d cursor is garbage that makes the Blender devs think Blender does not need proper snapping mode. Fu\ck the 3d cursor. No wonder other applications don't have it.
@@jaromor8808 when you learn to use it properly and are not trying to fight it you'll love it. It's where items you add to the seen spawn in making it where you just need to click ruffly where you want an object curve or light to be shift a and it's more or less where you want it. No need to stop what you're doing just to grab the object from 0,0,0 and move it over. You can use it as a privet point for scale, location and rotation as well as a pivot for operations that need one to work. You can even use it as a place to snap the object origen to. It's incredibly useful when you learn to use it and you'll never want to work without once you do

It's funny to watch a grown man play with the 3d cursor. You'll learn to love it in time it's extremely useful when you get used to it
Also it's best to learn blender with it's own hot keys because it's made to work with them then you can customize as you learn
Ah very nice info, thank you! Yeah the 3D cursor is a bit strange, hopefully I’ll learn to love it. Thank you for your support 🤜🤛
@@YouAndMeAcademy ya every new user is like what is this weird annoying thing till they learn how to use it.
its main use is to be the point new objects are added, but it can be used as a pivot point, a thing to snap objects to and so much more.
No. 3d cursor is garbage that makes the Blender devs think Blender does not need proper snapping mode. Fu\ck the 3d cursor. No wonder other applications don't have it.
@@jaromor8808 when you learn to use it properly and are not trying to fight it you'll love it.
It's where items you add to the seen spawn in making it where you just need to click ruffly where you want an object curve or light to be shift a and it's more or less where you want it. No need to stop what you're doing just to grab the object from 0,0,0 and move it over.
You can use it as a privet point for scale, location and rotation as well as a pivot for operations that need one to work. You can even use it as a place to snap the object origen to.
It's incredibly useful when you learn to use it and you'll never want to work without once you do
@@ProjectAtlasmodling Wrong.
Why would u choose to learn Blender like this when 100% guaranteed u didn't learn C4D like this?
Showbiz my friend
it is really painful watching peeps trying to figure shit out by themselves, instead of learning it form like 10m tut
Thanks for your feedback!
I dont like Blender...
TBD 😄
this is painful to watch you need to go and find some lessons really 🤣🤣🤣🤣
But who would entertain you then?
