- Making Animated Short Films take time - A long time... This is my story about how I remade the Baby Driver 180 in-out drift into a little action sequence - The way I always wanted it to have been.
I hope it will encourage you all to dive into Blender and make awesome animations for the world to see!!

About Launch Control (LC) ►
If you want to make realistic-looking car animations in Blender in no time, LC is the tool for you!
It's built around 3 different parts of the process:
1. Automatic Rigging (One-Click Rigging of 4-wheeled cars)
2. Animation with presets for quick results
3. Physics simulations that bake fast and can be modified in real-time
LC strives to make vehicle animation accessible and eliminates the usual problems you stumble over, when turning your action-sequence dreams into reality (a virtual reality, that is).
The simple interface packs a ton of power and in the "Manual Gearbox" you have a world of customization options to tune LC to your liking.

Honestly this is the reason that I don’t give up on blender , with masters like yourself blender becomes so much more then just free open software , this is true industry standard work. I know it is a cliche right now but please consider creating an in depth course that really delves into your thought process and problem solving, cheers mate
Thanks a lot for the words!!
I absolutely do agree. Blender is by far my favourite software and that is NOT because it's free. It's because of the lightweight package that can solve (almost) anything you throw at it!
Thanks for the suggestion. I will for sure be interested in making something like that!
I really stick to only blender for this reason. And when I say only blender, I really mean it. It's really easy as beginners to continously get wrapped up in all kinds of addons and external softwares because you hear random people use that. When you do that, you lose focus on how Blender itself could have done some things for you. So you basically keep screwing yourself over and over.
I think blender alone by itself is extremely powerful and it would do us good to resist the urge to constantly look for outside of it to get the same job done.
@@thatsreallyamoonwell it depends. If you are into game dev industry then substance painter is a must. So is Marmoset toolbag. I mean, hypothetically, you can do everything these programmes do in blender, but it would be much easier and faster to just go with external solutions.
@@sammak7190 you might be surprised how much blender is used in professional media. i sure was. ive seen a few things about it, one of which was a ted talk from someone in the industry and he mentioned all the different shows and movies he used blender for.
oh shit this is free open source animation software?
Great Film Sequence and really good breakdown of how you pulled it off. Thanks for posting all the challenges you ran into and how you got around them. I'm off to check out more of your videos! Thanks again for posting.
Thanks a lot for taking the time to check it out. Happy you enjoyed it!!
Looks amazing, so real
Thanks a lot!
Does it? It has that miniature toys look. As if it used hot wheels in a built up miniature city. Wonder if that’s the colouring or lens depth, or frame rate.
@@DanielVesterbaek I'm impressed buddy, how to contact you I'm a creative director I wanna make movies like this in the future
Setup, optimization, render... full control! All it's amazing.
Absolutely awesome! It will be great opportunity to dive deeper into that process
Thank you for making this, very insightful, I just realized over the weekend that HDRI maker seemed to have a lot of new features, so I guess I'm going to have to dig into these!
You are very welcome!!
Yes, HDRi Maker had a lot of new features lately. Honestly, there is a ton in there I didn't even get to use yet.
I just want to say that in the end I did bake it to geometry, which is not a part of the add-on (yet at least, hehe).
Amazing how in just the past decade Blender is now capable of this. Really cool!
Yeees, Blender is my favorite software :))
This is crazy ! Honestly amazing work currerntly learning blender so this just gives me motivation to keep learning
Happy to hear that! Best of luck with your journey
This is SSOOOOO AMAZING!! Thank you for your time making this!
Thanks for checking it out!!
I mistakenly read this thumbnail title as “Making a film in a blender”, and my immediately thought… isn’t that how Hollywood makes all movies these days?
Pretty accurate, yes - Hehehe
Blender isn’t commonly used in high end vfx productions or pipelines. It’s mainly Maya, Houdini, 3ds max. Blender is still considered a hobbyist tool amongst professionals.
@@cadiumdanYes, yet!
Imagine: how good it will be when there is actual sounds of every object and environment
Wooooooh 🎉
Baby driver drift. Addon is amazing! Thank you for making it
You are super welcome!! I made it for myself at first because I wanted a tool like that - one of my friends said I had to make it a product so other people can use it too, hehe
This is truly amazing.. I really hope you could do a complete step by step tutorial on this... From building the city with Hdmi maker all the way to lighting, animation and final render.
I really hope you consider that.
Thanks a lot
I agree. I would love to learn how you did this. Creating a 3d space and do stuff inside it is something I've always wanted to do. If you will do a step by step series, then I will sub and turn on notifications and follow along, I promise.
Thank you for the suggestion!!
I would be happy to, but it would take a loooong time to record all that and it would end up as a very long series.
Making a more in depth video on how I project hdris and build environments that way might be a better way to attack it.
Thanks again for the suggestion!!
@@DanielVesterbaek How you projected the hdr and create the environment would be great.
Truly appreciate it & looking forward to it.
Thanks again
@@DanielVesterbaek ok. I’ll Still subscribe and try and follow along. But these videos are a bit advanced for new users.
Still wait for this to happen! Really grateful!@@DanielVesterbaek
Amazing! Really interesting to see your AE compositing too. Done is better than perfect :)
Heheh, absolutely man! :D
Beautiful result! Thanks for sharing !

Dude this is solid gold, thank you!
Glad you liked it!
This is crazy!! Thank you for sharing this :)
Thanks for checking it out!!
absolutely amazing! keep up the excellent work.
Thank you so much!
i've never thought blender could do this
Maan! Whyy? Blender can be frustrating for sure, but it's such a good tool :)
Great breakdown! Thank you for making this video
Glad it was helpful!
This! Is! SO freakin cool man! And insane realistic!
Thank you so much!! Wish it was more realistic though, hehe.. Looks a bit like a cartoon
I am always blown away by your stuff ahahah hope you keep going 😎
Thanks a lot! Heheh, yes that is indeed the plan. Love making stuff like this
Amazing project man!
Congrats, keep going.
Thanks ton!!
Beautiful breakdown my friend! Can't even imagine how long this took haha. Amazing animation!
Thanks a lot!! - Well you for one know a lot about rendering cars. Both moving and static! :D
But yeah, there were a lot of shots in this one to prepare, hehe
Perfect work!!! Thanks for sharing exp.
My pleasure!
Very Baby Driver-ish (the car stunt movement). Awesome reference!
Thanks a lot!
Woo,really nice work. Thanks for sharing the process,it really helps ,🙌
My pleasure 😊
Holy shit, Launch Control is pretty amazing....talk about doing all the hard work (car wise)...amazing.
Thanks a lot man! Was super fun to make the tool :D
This is amazing work. Thanks!
Thank you so much
So cool!
Thanks a lot!
This is so amazing! + subscribe. Love the video and the overview of how you made it! Would love for a step by step tutorial as well
Thanks for subbing! And for the suggestion!! I will definitely consider making some more tutorials about the entire hdri projection workflow :)
Fantastic breakdown!
...and a good warm up..😉
Thanks a ton!
Hahah, yeah, right? :D
Excellent!
Thank you so much!
wow mind blowing. hats off bruhhhh
Thanks a lot!
Great work,
modelling, texturing, lighting, rigging, animation, rendering, compositing, screenplay all are excellent
Hehhe, Thank you so much :))
looks really good. I have struggled with my own cityscape and know how long this stuff takes
Yeeees, it seems simple to add in some buildings, but it's quite hard to get it right, hehe
This is great!!
Thanks a lot!!
that amazing result!!! good job!
Very happy to hear you think so :)
Hope you enjoyed watching it!
great work!!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Beautiful
Thaaanks!
incredible work!
Thanks!!
I'm huge interested in how you create the city street just by projecting the HDRI map! Can you share a bit of how to do that in a new video, please? Must confess, I'm deeply amazed by your work! The realistic vide is totally insane!
This looks amazing! Only things that catches my eye are the speed of recovery and accelerations of the Bronco after landing, the sports car restarting and the speed of the stop when the police approach at the end. They need more time to accelerate and decelerate to be believable. Feel like toys.
Aaarh yes :/
You are right about that. Well, some things to learn for the next one ^^
to create thing like this would take me my whole life
Really professional, This is cool! 🔥
Thanks a lot Andrew!! 😄
It came out looking great!
Thanks a lot!! Happy to hear you think so
Oh! My God! Amazing! Thank you so much!
Happy to hear! Thank you so much
Insane cool!!
Thanks!!
Amazing!
Thank you! Cheers!
Amazing job! I just realized that there are no drivers into the cars and this gives unconsciously the impression of self-driven cars 🙂
Hehehe, oh well - there is actually small peeps inside all of the cars, but they are just not so visible - or detailed 😄
That looks amazing!
Thank you so much!
first video seeing of yours here and 1 minute into the video ive subbed. thanks.
Welcome aboard! :D
Camera work is insane anyway i can improve on mastering this kind of stuff
Thanks a lot man!
Dude I know nothing about blender but i wanna learn it. All in all it looks great, thanks for the inspiration
Thank you so much!
Geweldig! Knap werk!
Thanks!!
Wow Wow .. Work well and perfectly done !!!!! Bravo Bro
Thank you so much!! :)
Love it!
Thank you so much!!
Dude you are awesome❤
Thank you so much man!!
Better than naming your cameras after frames is to give them names like Shot-01, Shot-02 etc. You'll be able to add additional shots simply by going down the alphabet or like this -> Shot-01a. This detaches you from a frames driven naming convention and will make more sense in the edit where things are shuffled around and often come from different animation files/timelines. LOVE the tip for binding cameras to timeline makers tho!
Oh this is cool!! Thanks for sharing the tip!!
Looks so beautiful ❤
Thanks a lot! :)
Its an amazing work! Thnx for sharing ….
My pleasure 😊
Great video , fantastic add on
Thank you so much!! Happy to hear you think so ^^
Great work. Really cool.

Ahahah 😂 that is awesome to read! Thanks for the comment
Great work!
Thank you! Cheers!
Huge! Super!
Thanks a ton!!
good enough for a game
still a work of art, no doubt
Thanks!! Yeah - one day I really want to be able to make photo-real stuff. Still not there yet ^^
Amazing work mate
Thanks a lot!
Beautiful work sir, congratulations
Thanks a lot man!!
wow dude, u no noob, u progamer, thanks for showing, greetings
Incredible!
Thanks!!
Wow! Amazing!
Thanks a lot!
dude, what a great render. and what a great breakdown too. love the addon . and the tiny neat little tricks you taught in the video. thanks for the breakdown. would love to know if you prefer ACES above other methods. Has it helped elevate your color grading and creative process in a big way or not that much?
Thank you so much! Really appreciate your comment. :)
Regarding Aces, my take on it is that when you get it set up and understand it, it's easy to use and well.. it's just a better workflow for colors than anything else out there.
Nuke makes it super easy to also composite in Aces. Usually, I just work with Aces inside Blender and edit in sRGB in after effects.
@@DanielVesterbaek gotchya man. gonna give it a try for sure. thanks!
Amazing video thanks for share!
Thanks for watching!
Really amazing!
Thanks!!
awesome! You're so talanted!
Thank you so much!
Man, this is entirely so amazing! Congrats... keep doing this.
Thanks, will do! Love creating 3D Shorts :)
Wow, impressive Daniel! 👋👋👋
Thanks a lot!
This is very interesting, I am a beginner in this field, I started making some trailers using mainly AI technology, but I love learning Blender too.
That is awesome! I use both AI and Blender too
What are those AI tools you used?
impressive!
Thanks!!
I look amazing! Fair play doing it all by yourself!
Thanks a lot!! :))
the boxy white jeep thing doesn't feel like it belongs in the world
Arh, okay. Thank you for the feedback!
Wow man!!! It's wonderful!😍😍😍😍😍
Thank you so much!!
@@DanielVesterbaek Most welcome
Excellent video!
Thanks a lot!!
Beautiful breakdown Thank you for making this, one thing At 1:04 instead of pressing 'm' to create a marker, we can simply select the camera and press '+ B' to bind it. without having to create maker
Yeah, hahaha - Another guy also told me. In the past you had to create markers first, but now they let you skip this step. Old school Blender guy here, hehe
Thanks a lot for pointing it out!))
Very impressive!
Thank you!!
Thank you very much for those tutorials and thos awesome tool
My pleasure! I love making animations and animation tools that I need - And it's always nice to be able to share what I find out with you all
@@DanielVesterbaek For the particle system did you use Smoke Images?
@@Insomnialennsomnia Yeah, actually an image sequence. I found a nice one online that was CC0
@@DanielVesterbaek Thank you very much I was experiementing with Principle Volume as Emitter
Great!
Thank you!!
