Sorry, thats not what I expected. I spent a lot of time typing down code from screenshots. Try doing this with only one small screen from an laptop! Very frustrating to burn time searching for typing errors. Some typing errors where very frustrating because they didn't raise errors. Like "bpy.context.scene_frame_end = 50" instead of "bpy.context.scene.frame_end = 50". There is not a lot of content an even less explanation of the content. I think about using the money back option. First time - and I have dozens of courses. Why is the animated camera not combined with the monkey scene at the beginning?

Clear explanations of whats being done and why.

I'm trying to perform certain repetitive functions in Blender. Hopefully, Python will do the trick.
By Daniel Rojo Mata on 9/3/2020
I loved it!
I'm a beginner, and this course motivates me to learn more about Python and Blender.
Good job.
By Bruce W. Johnson on 8/25/2020
Yes, this is what I need.
By Aaron Spain on 8/17/2020
Great course. Very well explained in reference-sized chunks. Do wish there was a bit more explanation of how to read Blender python documentation to learn to find properties and data sets on own.
By Brian Pyman on 8/5/2020
Some of this has been superfluous

Hopefully I've bought the course on sale. It's useful to a very general knowledge but it's a bit basic. It begins good but then starts to copy/paste a lot of code lines.
When you finish the course you can't imagine how coding can save you time in the future. The final script has no practical applications.
By Stephen Heyworth on 7/16/2020
The course was good as far as it went, but I would have liked it to go further. For example it didn't cover things like vertex and edge manipulation which are quite fundamental to Blender. The video appeared a bit fuzzy - probably because it was recorded at 720p and this made reading the text a bit of a strain on my eyes and distinguishing some of the characters difficult. For example 0 and 8 looked very similar as did the full stop and comma. As there was no actual final code provided (as there usually is with many of your courses), this made hunting for the inevitable typos very difficult.
By Eduardo Castillo on 7/14/2020
at the moment, is exactly what i was looking. [Edit] I did learn a lot but got lost sometimes with the copy paste lines.
By William Anderson on 7/12/2020
Would like this to be longer. This video only gave a me peak at what is possible but really just left we with so many unanswered more questions.
