All language subtitles for 03_06_campfire_asset_creation

- In this video,

we will start to model the
assets for our scene here

by creating the campfire assets.

So now we are back in this file here

which we created in the previous videos

let's enable material preview

and let's get rid of this cube here,

we don't need it.

Let's pick our modeling reference

and move it a bit to the side here

and lets create a new collection

select the Scene Collection, press C

let's call this campfire.

Inside the campfire

let's create a sub collection

let's call this one logsfire

and let's get started
with modeling the logs

and in order that we don't get distracted

from the sun lamp here

let simply disable the render collection.

Although we have some of those objects

which we need for the fire already,

here we wanna learn

how to create these assets from scratch

that's why I just use
the default cube button.

Let's press Alt + G, so
it's back in the center

and here we want to create a bunch of logs

so let's scale this down

and I try to stay in object
mode as long as possible

let's get this up and I have the character

here in the background as
a nice scale reference.

So let's create four logs

then let's scale them differently

and if you want to scale
something in the thickness

we have the Local Transform
Orientations enabled

this is important press S for scaling

and then I press Shift +
Z to exclude the Z-axis

and now I can scale along
X and Y as you can see

so I can make it thicker or thinner.

So let's make this a bit thinner

and we also need longer logs

which we will use for the cooking pot.

So let's create two long

and now let's add some variation here

Let's hit Shift+D scale this down a bit

and then we have this cutoff
branches here on the side

which makes this look
a bit more interesting.

First of all, I just add
them to a few sides here

and also up here, let's
duplicate this one here

we wanna have like
these two branches where

we can lay another branch on top,

something like this.

and maybe let's add another
branch somewhere here

and let's duplicate this

because we also need one long
stick, which we put on top

you will see in a second what I mean,

something like this.

Now let's pick one of those here

go to materials

let's call this wood

and since we duplicated all

of them from this one first cube

they all are using the same wood material

so we can change the color here.

and this will now affect all the logs here

and I want to have the random color

so I set random to one

and then let's use a different
brown tone over here,

something like this.

Now let's have a look from the top

and let's rotate around
some of these brunches here.

So not everything is
like perfectly straight

and now these brunches
here are not connected

with the main log here

so let's join them first,
select the branch, then the log

and then press Ctrl+J

and let's quickly do the same thing

for the others Ctrl+J

so hold on Shift

to select multiple, then
Shift the last one Ctrl+J.

Now you can see the names
are still at the cube_button

now let's select them all
select the first, hold on, Shift

select the last one

and then all of them will be selected

then either go up here to Batch Rename,

or press Ctrl+F2, then make
sure Selected is selected

objects we wanna rename
the selected objects

then the type I want to set name, new name

let's simply call this log and then hit OK

and then you can see all

of them were renamed into log.

Let's separate these three here,

press M, go to campfire

create a new collection.

let's call this cooking pot.

because in here we will put
everything which belongs

to the cooking pot,

then let's for a second

hide these two collections
select the campfire here

let's add the cube button,

once again, scale this down,

press F2 call this stone,

so we don't need to rename
this and let's press M campfire

create a new collection
and call this stones.

Now, first of all, let's make sure

that the stone has roughly the right size,

I think this looks fine.

Then let's duplicate this two times,

scale this down a bit

then let's duplicate these two,

and as you can see I try
to stay in object mode

we're scaling everything for now

and then later on

if I need to change the shape,

I can switch over to edit mode.

So now I have three stones

now let's join the outer
parts to the inner part

and then let's switch over to edit mode

but before we do that,
let's select them all

press Ctrl+A and apply the scale

which is important
before we go into editing

because this can cause trouble.

then up here

let's pick the face selection

and then let's scale this one down

move this down a bit, same for these two

and then use the edge selection

and press double G when
you select one edge

so you can slide it along
the existing surface

and in this way, I quickly
slide them a bit to

create a bit more interesting shape here.

Now let's hover over the other
one and press D to switch

to edit mode of this one here,

if this feature is not working for you

go to edit preferences interface

make sure that developer extras is enabled

then you have this
additional tab down here

and then you can enable
the switch object operator.

So let's press three
for the face selection,

let's scare these two down as well

and then two for the edge selection

and press double G to
slide these down a bit.

And same over here, scale
this and slide one side a bit

and maybe press G, Z
and move this down a bit

so it's not the same height
as for the other stones.

Then let's change the material

let's call this stones,

make this a bit darker

add randomness and
another dark grayish tone.

Then let's hide this one

and the last thing I create
here for now is the cooking pot

which we will put inside the
cooking pot collection here,

let's add a cube,

that's a huge cooking pot

let's scale this down,

something like this,

Shift+D move this up, scale this down

something like this here let's
quickly switch to edit mode,

let's apply the scale first

then in order to see through the object

press Alt+Z, or up here enable x-ray

then let's select the face down here

scale it down a bit

something like this,

let's call the material pot

and let's make it grayish,

this one here apply the scale,

let's copy this.

and let's call this black
and just make it black.

So when there's a hole inside something

especially when these
are like small objects

we don't use boolean
or something like this,

we just add a cube on
top, which we color black

and then it looks as if
there is a hole inside.

Of course you could also add some color

like if there's a soup
inside, something like this,

however, this is something
we don't need right now.

Now let's add a handle to the pot

so that we can hang it on
to the logs here for that

let's Shift+D this cube here,

scale it smaller and longer,

then let's select this pot here

and drag and drop the material onto this,

maybe let's press S+Shift+Z

to make this thinner a bit

move it over here,

Shift+D, Shift+D rotate this,

make sure that this one
here is a bit thicker

so there is no Z fighting.

when two objects are
too close to each other

then we can see this flickering

and that's why we take care that objects

which are sticked into each other

always have a bit different size.

And then there should
be a small rope on top

which we put somewhere here,

let's scale this down a bit,

let's duplicate the material

by clicking on this number,

call this rope

and then let's color this

into something more yellowish, brownish

a little bit brighter,
something like this.

Shift+D let's duplicate this

make this shorter and make this thicker.

This should be the knot.

So now let's join all these objects,

let's join these four
objects to this one here,

Ctrl+J,

and when you join multiple
objects with different materials

you now can see they are listed here,

and if you switch over to edit mode,

let's press Alt+A

to de-select everything
you can select these parts

as you can see, and you
can even, for example

press L to select this connected cube here

select a material, and then click

on assign to assign this specific
material to this element.

Let's go up here and
click assign once again

because we want to have the
pot material on the side here,

and now let's join the pot and
the rope to the knot up here,

Ctrl+J, and I would say,
let's move the origin,

let's pick origin, press G, Z

move it down to the center somewhere here

because later on, let's disable this,

we wanna rotate the pot a bit
when it is hanging around,

so the origin

up here makes sense to
have a good rotation point.

Now let's hit F2, to let's call this pot

and now you can see the
logs are pretty thick

so let's go into edit mode,
Alt + A, de-select everything

press L up here

and then scale this up a bit

because it should be
thicker than the logs.

So let's take a look

from the right side and
then we can see it better

and then this should work.

And by the way, to make
this more realistic

because we are creating
super realistic stuff here

let's Shift+D duplicate
the whole mesh element

in edit mode, press Z,

move it down here a bit,

scale it down,

of course we need another
knot around the handle here.

Then of course,

make sure to save the
blend. file in between.

And now we have everything
we need for the fire,

and in the next video,
let's put it all together.
