Description

This is a full tutorial on IA scatter addon for Blender. It will be taught with version 3.3 LTS.We will create a scene and use IA Scatter to create sci-fi building layouts with foliage, animation, water, floating rocks, custom textures, and vines with Geometry Nodes & lighting. We will also conduct multiple renders to test things out.Below is a list of things you will learn and be able to do after the course.Scatter like a pro with IA scatterUse raycasting features in geometry nodesScatter multiple layers with node groupsUnderstand and use Proxy instancesAnimate any instanced object or objectsUse Blender-kitUse Ivy generator addon with BlenderUse the append feature to add Geometry node-based groups for Ivy generatorsUse collections & maintain the hierarchyHow to animate features inside of multiple geometry nodesCamera culling features and viewport displaysScaling and all-transformTexturingBasic hard surface modeling techniquesUse textures to instance geometryUse weight paint for instance distributionAsk any questions you have and I will respond and walk you through issues that may ariseThis course will help you make a big jump in your 3D career as it will cut out time from the production process and you can put your valuable time into creating instead of tasks that are already being automated in the production pipeline with scattering tools.Ask any questions you have and I will respond and walk you through issues that may arise
