I had a truly wonderful time with this course. I’ve been wanting to create 3D animations for YouTube, and I was looking for a course that covered everything from the basics of Blender to modeling and animation production. That’s when I found this course. This course contained everything I was looking for. Thanks to this, I feel ready to take my next step. Thank you so much!

This is an excellent course designed for Blender new comer, or beginner, or newbie, who want to learn how to make 3D animation in Blender. This course contain Blender basic operation, to basic model making, to basic sculpting operation, to simple environment animation making, and finally a simple 3D human animation making, covering all aspects / areas for a student to know how 3D animation is made via Blender. By completing this course, a Blender new comer will be ready to proceed to intermediate course, without worrying not able to catch up. Simply put, this course definitely worth your money and time!

The course is wonderful, I learned a lot. And I really enjoyed learning! Alex’s way of teaching and his enthusiasm always keeps engaged and excited. The course was easy to follow, everything was clear to me. And there’s nothing left that I didn’t understand because Alex answered all my questions in details and helped me to solve some problems I had on my beginner’s path. The last section was especially satisfying for me: rigging, IK, animating! See you in another course of yours, Alex. Thanks!

Great course and great instructor. An update I just finished this great course. I spent a great educational time with a wonderful instructor, Alex. He is so fun and he really makes the learning experience more enjoyable. He was always available to help me out whenever I face problems with Blender. Thank you Alex for your help during the course. You are a fantastic instructor. I’ll see you soon in another course of yours

Ultimately learning what I was searching for...

Enjoying it.

Yes.
By Ali on 10/23/2020
I started with zero knowledge of blender and now I am in much control of Blender (over stated, as Blender is huge). Needless to say still long ways to go but it is all up my own efforts. Alex has a very good way of training and explaining the subject. The best part is, he knows that we have little or no knowledge so he treats us that way which makes the whole process comfortable. I am really glad I chose this course as a beginner.
Cheers :)

i feel fine doing this

For the course producer/teacher: A lot of the things that you do in Blender do not work for me or have different effect for me. You also did a great job at starting slow in the beginning of the course but out of the sudden you were speeding up too much and trying to pack too much in each video.
For Udemy: I can see that people wrote notes on certain parts of the video, but I cannot figure out how to have access to those notes. Either you have to make the notes easier to access, or stop telling me that people have written notes.
