‫All right, so we're going to jump into the modeling part or before I do that, I'm just going to quickly

‫run through the access lines in the sketch up.

‫So we have the blue axes, the green axis and the red axis.

‫Now, before I explain any of these axis lines, I just want to point out and I want you to keep this

‫in mind, is that the green axis is always pointed to the true north in SketchUp, which means if I

‫switch on the shadows, you'll.

‫Now you can see that this is the North.

‫This is salt and this is the eastern west.

‫The time is 140.

‫And this is the month which denotes that it's somewhere in mid-October.

‫Now, if I change this to morning, you can see that the sun rises in the east and sets in the West.

‫So that's something which I want you to keep in mind going forward because we're going to be using it

‫a lot in the various part of the cause as well.

‫So the green axis pointed towards the North.

‫The IT axis, obviously towards the east and the blue axis is towards space, or it's also known as

‫the Z-axis, which is pointing towards something unknown.

‫And we use axes a lot when it comes to modeling and sketch ups.

‫So let's start modeling.

‫And the first tool, which we're going to learn is the Line two.

‫Now click the line tool to activate the line tool, or you can press L on your keyboard and it's the

‫shortcut for line.

‫So if you click once on the viewport.

‫You can see that you can start drawing a line.

‫Now a lot of students who make the mistake of I'm going to press escape to get out of the line command.

‫So a lot of the students make the mistake of clicking and then dragging and not releasing the left mouse

‫button.

‫So that's a mistake and sketch up which you need to avoid.

‫You simply need to click on the viewport, release your hand from the left, click, and then move around

‫in the SketchUp so you can see that it snaps whenever I move towards that axis.

‫So it's not absolute red axis, I'm just going to click you.

‫And then again, if I want to would along the green axis, I can move it towards the green axis.

‫Now, since my viewpoint is oriented in such a way that if I move this way, it would get snapped to

‫the Z-axis, that's not what I want.

‫So I'm just going to orbit to the right a bit and then draw my line to the green axis, then finally

‫back.

‫Or if you want to infer at this point, all you need to do is go back on the right axis and it would

‫automatically snap on foot to this point.

‫Now, if it doesn't infer for what you can do is just go to this point and then simply drag it out slowly

‫and then it is to click that.

‫And finally, we need to close this.

‫And we have our fears, so now before I go ahead, I just want to explain faces and edges in Seattle.

‫So these are the edges.

‫But we just drew with that line come in and this is the face now an enclosed edge will create a face,

‫as you can see.

‫And also something so important to know is reversed faces and sketch up.

‫So we have a white face at the bottom and.

‫Sort of a blue face at the top.

‫This is our diverse face.

‫And when it comes to V-Day modeling or rendering, you should always apply material on the white face

‫with sketch up.

‫We're going to be showing that later in the course as well, so do not worry too much about it, but

‫I'm just going to keep you updated so that you don't make the mistake of playing with you on this whole

‫piece.

‫But for now, just forget about that.

‫We will dive deep into applying materials in the very part of the main course.

‫I'm going to show you how to create the same box, but this time with some measurements, so I'm going

‫to click on the line tool again, and I'm also going to show you how to lock your axis when drawing

‫lines.

‫So activate the line tool by clicking here or by pressing the L key on your keyboard.

‫I would suggest that you start getting into a habit of using shortcuts because if you use shortcuts

‫a lot and sketch up now, click once to start drawing a line.

‫Remember, do not click and hold.

‫Click and release your left mouse button and drag it to the right axis.

‫No.

‫For example, if your line is not snapping to their taxes and you want to snap it, all you need to

‫do is press the writer Haruki.

‫All new keyboard and it would snap to the right axis now, even if I go anywhere else on the viewport.

‫It doesn't change, it's a locked to that red axis.

‫So once it's locked to the right axis, you can give a measurement like you mentioned before, you do

‫not have to go to the measurement box in the corner and click you.

‫You do not have to do that because it doesn't work.

‫All you need to do is just open your value.

‫So I'm going to type in an apostrophe.

‫Do you know that it is in feet and then press and enter?

‫So that's 10 feet.

‫I'm going to drag my lane to the green axis and to lock it to the green axis, I'm going to press the

‫left out.

‫OK, so now it's locked to the green axis.

‫And now I'm going to press five and press enter.

‫So now you can see that since I did not give the right unit the apostrophe it read in inches, the sketch

‫actually reads mostly in inches.

‫So without looking anywhere else.

‫No, I can overrate this value, which I just gave.

‫So with the green axis snapped or the left outlook or whatever it is, I'm going to type in the value

‫again, five feet and then present.

‫So it just overrides the previous value and then takes in the new value.

‫And now we have the correct measurement.

‫You can also type in in meters, which is something really cool and sketch up, and you can't really

‫do this in 3D as Max or the other 3D modeling applications.

‫Now, for example, I want to type in thousand five hundred mm.

‫I can just open doors and find it and then type in.

‫Mm.

‫Press enter and boom.

‫We have a thousand finding them in line.

‫And then finally, to close this, I can just click on the end point to.

‫So click on the search tool again to activate the spacebar tool and deactivate the line tool.

‫And now we have our ship.

‫So what are you to practice what I just thought you which is using the line tool, blocking it to the

‫great axes, clicking ones, knocking it to the green axis, clicking again again, logging into that

‫it axis in, fitting it to the first point and then going back to your ship.

‫You can also use the measurements by simply typing in your value.

‫And get used to using the main tool and sketch up.

‫Now let's say you made a mistake and you want to go back and you know how to do that simply by using

‫the undo command, which is controlled.

‫And you can see that last line gets deleted.

‫So the Control Z and redo is pretty useful in SketchUp and gives you make mistakes.

‫All you need to do is go to edit and click on Undo Drawling.

‫Oh, you can press control.

‫The other shortcut is all 10 backspace, which I don't use is generally controlled.

‫See?

‫So the next video, we're going to learn how to use the rectangle tool and make these shapes faster.

‫So it's you guys next.

‫VIDEO Just.
