I used to think I would never be able to learn Blender until I found this teacher. He makes the functions of the program so easy to understand, and on top of that, his funny expressions and sense of humor keep me laughing and engaged throughout the lessons. What really stands out is how dedicated he is. He doesn’t just teach, he makes sure you really understand. His passion for teaching is clear, and it inspires me to go deeper into the course. I’m planning to take all of his courses here on the platform because he truly has the gift of teaching. I honestly wish I had discovered this course years ago when it first came out, but I’m just grateful I finally found it. Teachers like him are rare, and I truly appreciate the way he combines knowledge, patience, and humor in such a unique way. He doesn’t just explain Blender, he makes learning it feel natural and even fun. If you’re looking for someone who not only teaches but also inspires and motivates, this is the professor you want to learn from.

It is not my first course about animation and this one is a top must-have! First I learned a ton of things I did had not found anywhere else. Then each new technique made me feel like trying it in many other situations and I had a lot of fun playing around with it : this course is a great vitamin for creativity The examples are so diversified that the course gives us a great toolbox that covers a large range of animation needs. As usual, Alex’s explanations are clear and relevant and his enthusiasm gives us a great motivation to go further and further… Alex, I must admit I am a little sad having finished this course… please, make another one

L’insegnante è indubbiamente molto competente e propone un corso vario ed interessante. L’unico problema per quanto mi riguarda è la tendenza a ripetere sempre le stesse frasette tipo “how cool is that”, “sweeeeeeet” nonché i saluti finali, sempre uguali e noiosi. Ho trovato questo aspetto davvero fastidioso, al limite dell’insopportabile, in quanto ripetuto in continuazione. Mi dispiace perché l’insegnante ha le competenze di un professionista ma si esprime come un ragazzino di 13 anni, non rendendosi conto che parla anche con gente matura, che cerca magari un livello superiore di serietà e di compostezza.

I think Alex's real strength is understanding that less is more. He keeps the examples simple so that you can focus on the technique. For the most part, this course is a whole series of short 4-13 minute chapters in which you learn one specific aspect of Blender animation. To a certain extent, you even jump around as many of the lessons are self-contained. Alex's enthusiasm for Blender is genuine, and he is unbelievably quick to respond to questions and offer support. I almost worry he checks too often--I hope he pauses for a coffee break or a nice walk :-) Great value.

I have been learning Blender for the past 2 and half years, I took 22 courses on Udemy about it and many of them were from Alex, the first I did was on sculpting when I was an absolute beginner. It was not so hard because Alex makes it feels possible to learn, I liked his way of teaching since the first video, he is calm and make things look easy, always find a simple way to make us understand something more complex, in short he is a true master! Besides all that he still helps us on his website blendermania3d dot com, you have to check that out! Great place to share your work and see other people's work too. I highly recommend all his courses! Thank you once more Alex, you already are part of my history!
By Spye Brightscale on 12/12/2022
A course with alot of great tips and tricks on various animation techniques! You can take this course as an overview over techniques which you can then refine afterwards! A portion of what is covered: - shape keys - lattices and their varies uses - dynamic paint & mesh displacement - using noise - physics fluid simulation - basic use of dope sheet - curve and path follow - constraints - and more It is highly reccommended that you create your own projects using this techniques, addign texture and combining the techniques!

I've done many YouTube tutorials and several different Udemy Blender ones--I liked this course as it was all broken up into bite sized chunks that made it easy for me to digest and then experiment on my own. I used Blender 3.2.2 for this one so there were a few things that had changed but overall it was a great course.

Dear Alex, It was a very understandable, useful, yet easy course. Thanks for the lessons! I learned a lot from them. With this, I took the first steps of my life in the world of 3D animation making, which was so captivating that I found my perfect hobby. And who knows, maybe even more over time. It was a real flow experience for me to use Blender as I learned more and more about it. I dropped into a wonderfully free and infinite world of self-expression. Thanks again, Alex! Best regards, Best wishes, Sándor (Alexander)

These are just what the Doctor ordered, after getting my introduction to Blender lessons competed first. These animations are tools for US to use later, and it was nice that Alex explained them well. Only issue was the Water lesson, Blender had changed and the video isn't matching up to the latest rev, but there is a good video on the "Tube" that explains the new Water "MantaFlow" simulation. I liked everything very helpful information thank you.

this was one of the few courses I actually looked forward to every day to watch! the teacher goes over alot of really cool stuff that I didnt think I would learn from an intro class, which is really cool. I would recommend this course for anyone who is getting into object animation, the things you learn can be applied to character animation later. each section is broken down really well to short bits of info that make you want to explorer blender. I learn alot from this course and will constantly refer to this when I am stuck trying to figure things out. the community that is part of the class is nice and people are posting their work often. this course was worth the watch and money for it!
