Plans for 2021. What conclusion did I draw in 5 years of creating 3d tutorials on Youtube?

00:14 - In short, I decided to record only the hair and fur lessons.

00:18 - What does it mean? Do you see all these works? Is that so? I will tell you how absolutely from scratch - to create hair, wool, prepare a render, and upload to 3d stocks.

00:27 - That is, to get such results. But I think that you know my works and all of them - there is no need to demonstrate.

00:33 - At any time - you can go to my portfolio and see them all.

00:36 - There will also be videos from “Making of”.

00:39 - And by the way, I have already started recording a video about the process of creating my project “Scorpio Girl”.

00:43 - One video is already on the channel and it remains to add subtitles for it.

00:47 - Of course, there will be different render tests with hair and fur in different renders.

00:52 - As I already did with the project you are familiar with.

00:54 - This is FStorm. Arnold. V-Ray.

00:56 - Redshift Octane and so on. That is, all the renders are the ones I love.

01:00 - I will show the shader settings and other points.

01:04 - And of course there will be videos on how to use my assets on your characters and other objects.

01:09 - I am already recording a video on how to transfer and use this wool.

01:13 - That is, this asset can be bought and used in your projects.

01:17 - Naturally, there will be 3ds max, Maya, Cinema4D, and not just one product.

01:21 - And of course - I don’t forget about “Unreal Engine Alembic Hair” I keep asking “Epic Games” questions And I’m already recording the next video with the answers.

01:31 - Now in the details. Why did I decide that? I think that many of you saw that this week - I started to release lessons very productively.

01:40 - And say that I close some “tails”. More specifically, “tails” on “Brushify” and “Chaos Vantage”.

01:46 - It was an experiment. Before one important decision, you’ve already heard.

01:51 - And which I have already accepted. That is, a whole week - From 7 am to 7 pm - 12 hours a day I worked on these lessons.

02:01 - That is, specifically - this is one, two, three, four, five…

02:05 - Five videos. It was interesting to me.

02:08 - And I also counted how many I would release them - normally.

02:11 - From 7 am to 10 am. That is, 3 hours a day.

02:14 - It would take 20 days, not 5 days. That is, I think - you feel the difference in the release speed.

02:21 - Moreover, it should be borne in mind that I have released a video on only two topics.

02:25 - And not all of them are with voice acting and editing.

02:27 - If I did each one as it should be, it would probably take a month.

02:31 - And maybe much more. But this was an experiment.

02:35 - And of course, having my main job, I can’t always do that.

02:39 - And now, I think you understand why on different topics - I have been releasing lessons for so long in 2020. And in the previous ones too.

02:47 - That is, I showed that yes - lessons can be released faster if I will devote the whole day to this.

02:52 - 12 hours per day. And YOU can implement this idea on an ongoing basis.

02:57 - There is one option. But whether I will do it or not is up to you.

03:02 - In the “Community” - I opened the vote. And already launched it.

03:06 - Probably, at first - not everyone understood what was happening - before the release of this video.

03:10 - But now, I think it will be clear. There is such a vote with a question here.

03:15 - “Do you want me will set up a donation system that will speed up the release of new lessons?” And the answer options.

03:21 - Yes (I am ready to donate to speed up the release of the lesson) Or - NO (I can wait for a regular release without speedup) Here you can vote.

03:30 - And this is what can affect the acceleration of the release of new lessons.

03:34 - I think that a month will be enough to understand whether you need it or not.

03:39 - Let’s see what happens. During my entire activity on the channel I have experimented with different topics.

03:47 - And it was really interesting to me. But as you all know or have probably already guessed, my favorite topic is grooming.

03:54 - I am a professional in this field, and after 4 years of work, I realized that there is still room for development.

03:59 - Much is not covered and I would like to tell you about it on the channel.

04:03 - That is, to fully focus all my time to cover all the topics that I wanted to record in 2020.

04:10 - This is the hair for sculptures. And “Hair for Games”.

04:13 - And much more interesting things. I think that many of you saw this moment on the channel when I started the topic…

04:19 - For example, “RealTime Hair Part 4”. Released 8 months ago…

04:24 - And… That is, you are already waiting 8 months - the release of the next part…

04:28 - And it is still being recorded… Why? I think you already understand.

04:32 - Because I wasted my time - on different topics.

04:35 - For example, “World Creator Experiments”. I released these videos more often and faster - because the creator himself sponsored me.

04:42 - And thanks to that - I spent the weekend making these videos.

04:45 - And you’ve seen the frequency of their release.

04:47 - Unlike other topics. But, as I said earlier, I concluded that even this I don’t want to do now.

04:54 - I want to focus on one area. And based on the vote - we will understand whether you are ready to sponsor these moments and receive new lessons as soon as possible.

05:03 - So that’s it. Since I am a professional in this business and finally understood how I want to develop the channel in the future…

05:09 - But I really want to create a community on Youtube.

05:12 - That is the channel that will teach you my craft.

05:15 - That is to say… What you see in my portfolio in the grooming folders, not what happened in the “Other Works” folder.

05:22 - Yes, there you can see what I did before grooming.

05:26 - Where I was distracted, experimented, and in what areas - I worked.

05:30 - But this is no longer mine. My love is grooming.

05:33 - And “LookDev” is related to it. That is, lighting, shaders, and so on.

05:38 - I. e. I want to teach you to do the same.

05:40 - From start to finish. So that after watching a series of my lessons, you can create a full-fledged asset for 3D stocks and sell it.

05:50 - I would like to answer your interesting questions about hair, wool, and so on.

05:54 - I think many have noticed how in 2020 my Artstation page has changed.

05:59 - Now you can see there exactly what I focused my attention on.

06:03 - This is grooming. 3ds Max grooming.

06:05 - Maya grooming. Hair for Games. And grooming, grooming and grooming again! The same thing - I want to do it with a Youtube channel.

06:13 - Since to be honest, everything did not go as I planned.

06:16 - That is, before - I did not think about the consequences of my activities on the channel.

06:20 - For example, many subscribers and new people who come to my channel or customers who are writing letters to me now began to think that I am the same mega-pro in all these areas, about which I recorded lessons.

06:31 - After the release of the lessons on “World Creator” and “Unreal Engine” - many proposals for “Environments” began to arrive.

06:36 - Even after the “Brushify” lessons, which are without voice acting.

06:40 - But I’m not a mega-pro in all of these topics.

06:43 - It’s just improvisation. This is just an interest and many lessons were created immediately after I had just studied the topic and immediately ran to record it.

06:52 - In fact, on the channel - this happened throughout 2020.

06:55 - Because of this, there was a distraction and some topics were not finished and closed.

07:00 - Yes, it was really interesting to me. And then I wanted to develop the channel in this direction.

07:05 - It was interesting to challenge myself and watch. what will come of it.

07:10 - But this is what led me to a dead end. That is, just a week ago, when I was recording another lesson on “Brushify” A normal lesson with voice acting, and not what I released in 3-4 episodes.

07:21 - Yes, I did plan to record normal lessons and cover the whole topic in sufficient detail.

07:26 - And I was faced with the fact that I wanted to buy a course from Joe.

07:29 - Which I showed in the last video on “Brushify”.

07:32 - And I needed to buy it so that I could better sanctify this topic for you.

07:36 - That is to see, learn, and become a pro. I saw how you react to such videos, how many subscribers are coming, and so on.

07:43 - But this really is not so important to me now.

07:46 - After all, I asked myself a question. Why am I doing this? Why do I need this? Why spend money on a course and what is my goal? If I’m a professional groomer.

07:56 - And I can answer every hair question. Wool.

07:59 - And many here on the channel are waiting for this.

08:02 - It is the coverage of this topic. And this is much more interesting.

08:06 - After all, in fact - my soul is connected with this.

08:09 - The same thing happened with “World Creator”.

08:12 - I just got stumped while coming up with the world - for another video.

08:16 - Yes, something worked out and the creator liked it.

08:18 - But I wondered. What’s next? Will I be able to surprise as well or just work for money? Which I naturally don’t want.

08:26 - After all, I’m used to giving my whole soul to the project.

08:29 - And don’t do it for excuses and finances. After all, I see that there are people in the group who do it much better than me.

08:35 - Because they breathe it. And it seems to me that everyone should do their favorite thing.

08:41 - Because I believe that why would I need to fill in the knowledge gaps on topics that are not as interesting as grooming? Just to do cool lessons? Earn Money? No, I’m not so interested in this.

08:53 - This is how I lose myself. I’m just such a person that if I do this, I need to dive with my head.

08:59 - Instead of walking on the surface and being a poseur.

09:02 - YES. This is exactly what I did with the last Brushify video.

09:06 - YES Because I wanted to end this nightmare as soon as possible and start doing what I love.

09:12 - It burned me from the inside and was very disturbing.

09:16 - I began to feel that I was not on the right track.

09:19 - So yeah, I was ready for the hate and the consequences after the release of these videos.

09:24 - In 2020, I was faced with the fact that many interested people with glowing eyes began to come to the channel - on various topics.

09:32 - That I have sanctified. During this year - the channel has jumped up very much.

09:36 - A lot of people from this number have signed up this year.

09:40 - And they gave a lot of views - 627K In fact, this is not what I always chased after.

09:45 - Therefore, I hid the number of subscribers on my channel.

09:48 - If it were possible, I would also hide the number of views.

09:50 - This is not the main goal. After all, it is important for me that people evaluate the content.

09:55 - And they didn’t subscribe just because of some numbers.

09:57 - They got useful knowledge. What do you think - what are the main topics that attracted these people? Yes, Ornatrix is ​​on their list.

10:05 - But mostly - it’s “World Creator”, “Unreal Engine Environments” Of course, renders and “PhoenixFD”.

10:10 - These are the most-watched playlists in 2020.

10:14 - And these people started asking deeper questions that took a lot of time.

10:19 - And more deep analysis. And in order to answer these questions I would just have to forget about grooming That is, just stop doing hair and devote all my days to it.

10:30 - Of course, I didn’t. And on the channel, lately, one could notice the tendency of closed playlists.

10:36 - The last video on the list was called “Closed Playlist”.

10:41 - Yes, throughout my entire career, namely 12 years, I have been interested in many things.

10:46 - But now I have made the most important conclusion for myself and I talked about this in an interview for “GameDev From Girl”.

10:52 - That you need to focus on one topic. To be a cool professional.

10:56 - And only on it. Dedicate all your time to this.

11:00 - This is what I did in the work with customers and for 2 years now I have been dealing only with hair and wool.

11:04 - The same thing - I want to do with the channel.

11:06 - And one more important statement. I will no longer make videos without voice acting.

11:12 - As much as some would like it - to speed up the release of the lesson.

11:16 - This spoils the atmosphere of the channel. It destroys what many are used to.

11:21 - And there are very few high-quality dubbed lessons on Youtube.

11:25 - I even saw how some of you were upset and afraid that there would be no more voice.

11:30 - I heard from you. Yes, there are people who cannot hear my voice and prefer subtitles.

11:35 - I don’t forget about them either. Yes, I cannot resolve the issue with the English voice acting and other languages.

11:40 - And I think you remember this news about the ban of such videos from the side of “Youtube”.

11:44 - But I see that my foreign friends understand this.

11:47 - And few of them complain. Indeed, in terms of views, the United States is in third place.

11:51 - And further, there are different countries.

11:54 - That is, subtitles are really important for these people.

11:56 - And they influence the development of the channel.

11:58 - Therefore, I also spend a lot of time on them.

12:01 - Yes, this is a difficult decision and it may upset some of you.

12:05 - But on the way to a dream - you need to learn to take responsibility and make such decisions To become a recognized professional in your field.

12:12 - I really enjoy creating hair and wool. And other topics are simply not mine.

12:18 - I got it. After all, there are other channels that sanctify them better than me.

12:22 - Yes, I think you yourself understand and see it.

12:25 - I believe that I need to end these improvisations and really show what I know.

12:30 - And I’m ready to dive deep with my head. Therefore.

12:33 - If you are ready for the interesting changes I have voiced in this video.

12:38 - Stay with me and jump into 2021 together. Thank you for watching and wish you a good mood.

12:45 - Happy new year friends!.
