I’m Kev, and I’ve been at the 3D game professionally for over 20 years. In addition to production work mostly outside of entertainment, I’d taught this stuff at college level , in a classroom, before UA-cam was even launched.
I’m currently a professional Houdini generalist in Los Angeles, outside of entertainment, and while this channel is lots of Blender, I do teach Houdini on Patreon. Additionally, most of the files in these videos are up there for a ridiculously cheap price.
Publishing to UA-cam is second to taking care of my Patreon, and it’s here if you’re interested in learning from someone who has been under pressure to deliver in Lightwave, Maya, XSI, and Houdini, for over two decades.

Thanks for the video
1:45 how do you get that other menu "Don't press anything here" what then how do I get menu to show ??? I'm stuck at the very start HELP ME please I'm using blender 3.0.0
Thank you very much!
is so bad pro
love the personality thx for explaining this in common people english
If we recreate this spaceship, are we able to use it for our projects? Can you do a part 2 where you show how to add the lights to it and color it/shade?
Sure, it’s out there. It would be cool if you throw a credit in the film but yeah, have at it. 🤘😀🤘
@@KevBinge For sure! 🙏🏼
@barakatfilms Awesome! Keep me posted, I love film. Good luck.
I am having a prob in the part where he changes the blender mode from opaque to additive. my blender isnt showing the option of additive. is it a addon? 6:13
It’s different now, but it handles shaders better than before. They this: developer.blender.org/docs/release_notes/2.81/eevee/#Transparent_BSDF
Thanks! This was exactly what I was looking for! Still Works as of Blender 4.1
Thanks for letting me know it still works! That’s helpful given how much Blender keeps changing haha!
Thanks a lot! I was struggling to get "the yummy" to a cake model! :)
Thanks! I’m glad this still looks edible haha!
This simple setup looks better than most all of those insanely complicated and tedious node tutorials for underwater scenes
Thanks so much! I like to keep things as simple and manageable as I can.
There'd better be some hamburger in that pill or I won't take it.
It’s human meat! (said in Frank’s voice from Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia.)
@@KevBinge well now I'm going to have to watch that movie.
It’s a show, and there are clips on YT. Given your sense of humor, I think you’ll really like it haha. I can’t stop laughing when I watch it.
@@KevBinge so we're going to pick on my sense of humor are we? Well you're a great guy too you know that?
Haha! Your sense of humor is awesome, but thanks 😀
great video big guy! Your second voice scared the daylights out of me, not bad at all. Thank you for sharing this!
Thanks! The second voice is coming… lol.
Very nice. The skulls are a nice touch. :)
Thank you! This one was fun 😀
Thank you 👏👏👏
You're welcome 😊
Can you please drop a 15 minute long tutorial on texture projection mapping and texture painting? In blender 4.0
I followed through the tutorial but somehow my emitter outputs the individual objects of the collection making up the ant
at the end of the video you mentioned that you were skeptical about putting out that last tidbit of info so the trolls wouldn't get there hands on it, are there a lot of trolls in the blender community? I've only encountered a couple and was wondering what is your experience in that regard has been from someone who reaches a far wider audience and probably see's a whole lot more
At the time there were some really mental people out there. Fortunately it’s calmed down, but I haven’t been producing much lately.
Thanks!
You’re welcome 😀
❤ useful
les parametre pour le suivie de chemin sur la version 4 ,ne fonctionne pas, sinon , dans l'ensemble ,le tutoriel est superbe ,merci pour le partage
Nicely done sir. This is amazing. I can't stop laughing 🤣...
Glad you enjoyed it!
One of my biggest problems is my inability to sell myself (CV and portfolio) and reading about this online is so exhausting because there are so many opinions and contradictions. I'm lost
Self advocacy is very difficult and doesn’t come naturally for many. Couple that with a horrible job market right now and it’s a mess. Hang in there. Confidence sells, and it helps to realize that you can’t ever know everything for a job. Get confident in your ability to find and apply information to solve problems, and that can take you a long way.
Amazing tutorial! thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching!
The thought of biting into those sprinkles upsets me...
wow, after close inspection only spotted a few intersecting sprinkles… impressive
Thanks. A couple still do but this isn’t final yet, just fun to get something to feed the algo while I make another long form video 😀.
Sprinkles do fuse in real life brother 😁
@@sicfxmusic oh yeah you right! 10/10 no mistakes
And that about sums it up for a circle k visit.
Strange things are afoot at the Circle K 🤘😁🤘
@@KevBinge well even if it's a footlong donut it still sums it up.
@jester7169 I did have some amazing Churros this past weekend, does that count?
@@KevBinge as long as they weren't cinnamon sticks like when my brother had them. He didn't realize they were cinnamon sticks. He thought they were churros at the time.
@jester7169 Oh yeah, they were churros!
Hell yeah
But this is bettaaa -
just found your channel. Super cool stuffs. Smashed the subscribe button immediately
Thanks!! I should probably make more videos lol.
@@KevBinge for sure :) we are looking forward to watch them
@giovannimontagnana6262 Thanks Giovanni 😀
you played with it too much.
muy bueno, gracias
Here's my advice: Unless you are REALLLLLLLLLLLLLY fucking AMAZING..dont even bother. <<15 years experience.
light doesn't pass through mine... :(
PLEASE! Update this video for blender 4.1 🙏
Great idea, thanks for reminding me 😀
it is most super cool
Very nice work man, love to see you going through blender and houndi
Thank you! Houdini is addictive 😀
very nice!
nice!
Thanks!
Absolutely fantastic!! Thanks for posting!!
Thank you!!
One of Babylon.js new feature is Node Geometry. Do you think this could be ported into Babylon now? Just curious since I've been planning on getting into game dev a bit since WebGPU and Havok physics in WASM dropped on Babylon and made web engines bearable to use.
You are amazing!! That was what i've been looking for....<3
Glad I could help!
i stuck with the single vert a bit too circular for my brain....
🟪💀🟪
Everyone really needs to chill with giving negative comments
I agree. Thanks!
Hey man need some advice, I love vfx/animation but there Just to much risk at the time, the ai is slowly taking over lot of jobs from the industry and this growth will only keep increasing exponentially, I can say myself to do what i like, but after 6-10 years where the industry will be nobody can predict, in my country and in most countries the VFX/ animation jobs are quite at risk studios shrinking itself, new freshers are very difficult to get job, and if there is a job its so underpaid that, just transportation can be done with that money nothing else, i am interested and can spend entire days learning, but what i fear is when i finish learning, there wouldn't be a job, and, This is just the case right now, as of 2024 but 5-8 years later or what will happen to the industry we may never know. So an industry that is currently suffering to provide stable jobs, with the threat of ai and how exponentially it grows what do you think i should do. Should i give 3-4 years of my life in learning this, and would there be a job at the end of it. Your answer will really mean a lot.
Thanks for reaching out. Anything I say comes from years of doing this work professionally, but in no way gives me a crystal ball to see the future, but here goes… Gen “AI” is garbage, oversold, and full of thieves and grifters. That said, Wall St., vulture capital, and private equity always move toward “efficiency,” which is code for cutting labor (humans) out. This (AI) is the ultimate wet dream of these idiots. The damage they will do until this bubble pops will be horrific. That said, “AI” as it stands can’t provide the quality and consistency that traditional and digital methods can. We are seeing this more and more as the cracks start appearing in their bullshit tools (including Sora) and narrative. It’s a parlor trick, and one that consumes massive energy, needs unlimited new data, and is extremely exploitive. It WILL crash hard, but no one knows when, and how much damage it will do in the meantime. It’s all a ploy to sell hardware and cloud services, hence the massive investment and horrible PR campaigns. I will say that aside from trades like plumbing, construction, electrical, and local farming, there’s really no job that’s safe, including those, “if” robots can mimic human motion. It’s ALL a big “IF,” and the tech bro idiots live to push their bullshit and spread hype just to get VC money and gaslight politicians to make their theft machines legal. It won’t last. I’m forging ahead. AI WILL make cool strides IN our tools. Things like denoising, roto assist (not replace,) style transfer, and the machine learning integration that SideFX is adding to Houdini that lets you train on your own data to get faster flow is all good. Also, things like render management and backend AI tools that just make our lives easier are coming, but will likely take a hit due to the fallout of all the other bullshit going in when things crash. The bottom line is that we can’t see the future, 5-8 years out could have me eating these words, but I don’t think so. No politician can survive more than 10% unemployment. If AI really starts displacing massive amounts of jobs, we will see massive action and backlash. Hold tight friend, and forge ahead with whatever you are best at. I hope this helps.
I have got into a merit list of a decent college for bachelor of science in VFX and animation, its a 3 to 4 years course depending on your choice But I need help whether I should do it or should I just " Lear to code" without any motivation and take CS I have a month and half to decide Self learning is not possible 👇 ( I will have to do the degree, cause if I need to switch fields, in my country there is a requirement for undergrad, so I have to do the college just so I can switch to master in any other field, if this doesn't work )
@@Watermallone CS is never a bad choice, almost ever. If you can minor in CS or VFX, both can and do play off each-other. CS will give you a hedge as tech will always keep moving, irrespective of hype and “AI.” If you can major/minor, that’s a solid plan. If not, make sure to take some CS classes WITH your VFX major if you can. “Learn to code” is a bullshit mantra repeated by tech-bro dipshits. “Ai” can take those jobs faster than they can VFX. Copilot is already pretty useful, although it’s error prone and needs hand-holding by actual programmers. I don’t see that going away without MASSIVE data and compute, which cost $$$$. If you don’t have motivation for CS, you will get bored quickly, and life is short. 3-4 years isn’t that long, and you can always keep up with what’s going on in the industry WHILE in school, and pivot from a place of strength. College gets a bad wrap from the grifters, but it’s life-changing if you can manage the debt load.
@@KevBinge I am really thankful for your response Doing CS without motivation can be hectic and is told to me by lots of people, it also requires heavy maths while doing the degree that I don't fancy either The college I got into has placement from all the big studio, dneg, DreamWorks, disney studio,some studio of my own countries media industry, so If I managed to be in at least the top 20 of my college, there will be job, if I work hard, and I got scholarship so no dept, which is nice as well I will ask people from my country working in the industry as well and consider the minor major suggestions that you have given, and decide upon it. Thanks again for the response it really means a lot
@Watermalone-zi6mj you’re welcome. Good luck 😀
Egg-cellent video Kev. In the next one I would like them hard boiled.
The end of Aliens has them flame broiled lol.
@@KevBinge well good then. I don't have to cook breakfast tomorrow morning. Followed by a Dr Seuss book.
Meet one of these and you won’t need breakfast 😀. “The egg was an oval and quivered like gel. What came from inside was a creature from Hell. I looked in the egg with a curios pace, but quickly this thing just attached to my face. It wiggled and squirmed and I started to choke as this thing from the egg forced its way down my throat.”
@@KevBinge well so far it sounds like a horse pill. All of us including myself which is all of us anyhow wish you the best of luck. I'm trying okay? I'm really trying sheesh! Always acting like my fingers knotted up and ended up melting into one whole finger eventually. Can't say I didn't try. To be honest I have no idea what any of that meant.
That’s ok, I know what it all meant and it’s all good!

This is my second my burnout and I'm in my 3rd year of doing 3D.
