All language subtitles for 20-Creating our fern Part1

Okay.

So in this chapter, I want to go over how to create a fern plant and

this quite a classic one.

It's these ones over here.

So it's a really Classic Plan to make in 3D because it's probably a

very easy one.

And because it is an easy one.

I'm going to mix it up a little bit, just for the sake of this

tutorial.

And I'm going to combine combine, both Maya, and speedtree for this.

So what we're going to do is we are basically going to download a

texture over here for Ms.

Then.

An inside of Maya, we are going to create our Leaf meshes.

And then what I want to try and do is inside a speedtree.

I want to, of course not why we will do place the leaves and then we

will also place like different levels of the leaves with different

angles, which basically allows us to very quickly, generate a random

ice firm plans.

So that's a lot quicker.

You can also, of course, do it completely in my edges using bad

modifiers and some twists modifiers and just moving it around.

But if you don't want to make a change, of course, it will not be as

quick.

So let's go ahead and go in here and let's see.

So yeah, I quite like the classic ones that go into, like a point just

seem to be like these ones over here.

So let's just have a look and see which ones I like most.

I think this one looks pretty good.

But let's just always have a quick look like this car stuff.

Looks also quite interesting, but let's go for more classic one.

Dude, this one.

Maybe I'll do this one.

Wow, Max gets has a lot of these.

These ones are actually also pretty good.

But you can see there are apparently a lot of different types of firms

in the world, which of course makes sense.

So I'm kind of like deciding between this one over here or we can go

with like this one over here.

I think I'm going to go for this one.

Where are you?

No, I lost it again.

Am I so blind to?

All right here.

I am blind.

Yes.

So here we go.

I do not need to 8K resolution to gaze more than enough for plant.

So let's go ahead and just do a download on this.

Hello.

Okay, let me pause the video because it does not want to download.

I got it now it's working.

So let's just go ahead and let's grab Albedo normal besties.

We still did not use a roughness it we or did, maybe I forgot.

But let's just go ahead and you start these pieces.

That is all totally fine.

And now what I want to do is I want to go ahead and go into Maya.

And we can do the same thing as before.

And the reason I like to make the leaves inside of Maya in this case

is because what we can do is we can make the geometry, very clean and

also really quite optimized.

So that's why I just want to do it in here.

Because inside of Speed 3, of course, you have less control over the

actual segments of the line flow of your geometry.

So let's grab a classic plane over here.

Let's make like a little bit bigger.

Set this to 0 but after this it should be quite easy.

Just we are going to use a few different Leaf modifiers, but you'll

see what I mean with that.

I'm going to assign a material.

Open up the color file.

And I'm going to go to my Fern Albedo.

And if I also go to my transparency over here.

And grab my opacity.

There we go.

Easy does it now?

I think I want to use to having to use all four of the all six of

them.

I think I'm going to use these.

Five of them else.

It will be a bit like quite a bit of work.

Of course.

It's no problem if this bit of work, but it is tutorial.

I'm trying to avoid it, but I would recommend like if you are doing

this, of course, on your own time for, but for your project or

something like that, it is much easier if you simply spent a little

bit of extra time,

To make sure that you get enough variation out of things.

So for this one.

I'm going to just simply use my cut tool.

To do that does not really matter.

For now.

We are going to clean it up, but I need to select this and I need to

extract the faces.

And do the same.

For all of these.

Strike faces over.

Now.

What I like to do with these kind of lens is I do like to fit my plane

a little bit closer.

So I like to like cut pieces off so that it fits a little bit close to

the shape.

This will often make your geometry a little bit cleaner and also more

optimized because still this rendering that we have all this empty

space rendering is more expensive than actually doing the extra

additional geometry.

I don't know why all of these are all of a sudden in like,

Jesus.

Look at this.

Don't know how they managed to do that but they're all in different

groups, which is a bit strange.

Let me just quickly clean this up because I don't like the look of

that.

There we go.

Okay.

So basically what I mean is I'm gonna go at select everything.

She quickly reset my Pivot.

Then I want to basically move my planes to the very Point as far as

they can go like that.

And I'll just do that like every single one.

And then what we're going to do is we are going to basically use a cut

tool to slice of different pieces.

And after that, by the way, for this one, we can probably just do like

a Target to it like this.

See the move this.

So, after we've done the target felt we will slice them up and then we

will clean up the geometry.

And once that is done, we can just prepare them for export to Speed 3.

Yeah, so I just need to warm up with my talking again because this

morning time of recording this so just woke up.

That's The Power of editing.

That for you guys.

It might seem like one continuous train, but for me, this is day four.

I think they 45 recording.

Yeah, so we got these pieces done.

And now if you just go ahead and go to your gut tool, we can simply

press a cut like that.

Plus a cut like this be a little bit careful that I don't cut off any

nice little bits.

Another one like this.

Another one like this and then you can basically just delete this guy

stuff over here.

And now, the way that we would make this kind of geometry.

So it needs to be able to bend and curl and everything.

What I tend to do is first of all, I tend to actually connect any

loose vertices like this and then I just use my cut tool to basically,

add some fairly clean, even looking guts now, depending on the leaf,

so this leave is a little bit because of the way that it's a data

flows.

It goes from white to Tin.

Again.

It is not as clean as when you have, for example, normally for

normally, if you can literally, just use your connector, you can do

like super clean stuff.

But for this one doesn't matter.

We just want to do that.

And then every other one, something like this.

So we don't need to do this too often.

We just want to go ahead and we want to.

Give it like an extra segment.

Let's do this over here.

So that's we basically.

Now we have more than enough space to basically move around and

everything like that.

Jump to is not as clean as I expected.

But or as I was hoping for, but that's okay.

So it will still be cleaner than having a random triangles inside of

Speed 3.

just,

She, let's move this out over here.

Let's do this one.

And we can select this.

Once again, try to keep everything fairly even and lets out like a

connect here, here.

My name is Center.

And so this one will be like 40, 40, 40, curling and everything.

Because as you can see over here, like they bent, or they curl quite

nicely.

And then the rest will be mostly for like the twisting everything.

So we don't need to have like as many pieces.

I know it's I don't like I don't like doing it this way.

Let's have one in the center because the center one is always quite

important.

So if one here

I also don't care for that one because it is not adding a lot of

value.

Yeah, okay, maybe down here.

There we go.

So that's that one.

Just go on to the next one.

Only three to go.

like, that's

And once again, quickly add your geometry.

so, if one in Center,

And definitely around here because this is where a lot of bending will

happen.

So I'm just going to make it a little bit then sir.

Like this.

Here we go.

And maybe on like the little tip also a little bit extra.

Then once again, like one at least in the very center.

And then maybe, like, one on the outside over here, maybe, like, one

on this outside.

Also.

Yeah, it should be more than enough over here.

I probably even did way too many.

See if I look at this.

I think these two can go put much.

Maybe only this one.

No.

I now I'm going to get rid of both of them.

We can always add more if more later on if needed.

So the next one is going to be this one.

So we basically got it over here.

Oh, I think this one.

I do need to clean up a little bit more, but it's first of all,

finished cutting.

Like this and let's move this out a little bit.

And let's see.

So these two, I'm going to merge to the center.

This one.

I'm going to move down.

Yeah, that should do the trick.

You go and also.

You top.

Like that.

One of them at least somewhat in the center and then another one we

are going to have probably like over here.

And another one probably like over here.

Yeah, that should be able to bend nicely and then, finally last one.

So this kind of stuff.

The reasons are mine now showing it because of course is quite an easy

example, but you can also do this with very complicated meshes or like

The Cattails and everything like I already showed you so you can just

create custom leaves inside of for speedtree.

That is no problem.

If it

Let's work the way you want inside of speedtree.

Then you can always use create custom leaves like this and you can

just fill the do all of the jump to yourself to have full control.

And then all you need to do is just get it to speak to you as a leaf.

Apply it.

And it will be able to get manipulated just as like a normal plane or

normally food inside the Speed 3.

So, that's a really nice thing about it.

And that's also why I like why I prefer if I if possible using Speed 3

over Maya because I can very quickly all the bending and all the

twisting and everything for all of the leaves at the same time and

randomizing.

Yeah, that's just something that you cannot really do as easily Maya.

Unless you have maybe like custom tools and stuff like that.

Actually, this one.

I'm going to give a few more segments.

But anyway, so we now have these pieces done.

You guessed it.

Now.

We just need to go to our, add a pivot place, the pivot, unlike the

tip.

Over here.

So this is where our Leaf will start all of the manipulations and

start the spouting and stuff like that.

So that's looking pretty good.

Now.

The only thing is that with these leaves inside a speech read a pretty

much only count as one at a time.

So we need to export this to like five different files in terms of our

Let's do this.

I think it is easier if we go here.

And if I just click on the leaf, then go up here to name and call this

zero.

New name is know what, 01 should be fine.

Right?

L unscored.

01.

Okay, fine.

L on score 02.

L on score 03.

So I'm just preparing it for export right now, L on the Scoville, but

I need to give it naming because else I forgot.

So five else, I forgot which one I just created.

So we got this stuff.

We can apply this new layer and call this Fern on score leaves.

And now pretty much select one.

Turn on your snapping and this pretty much what I'm going to do.

I'm going to basically snap it to the center because of pivot Points,

export my selection, and I'm going to export

To Speed 3 which means I am going to probably create new folder and

call.

To underscore speedtree later on.

I will, yeah, I can text you.

I cannot change these because if I move these over here, what will

happen is that when you guys download the source files, you will be

missing the location.

So I'm just going to do it here to Speed 3.

Fern on the score leaf on a score 0 1.

And export.

And then I'm just going to move this out of the way.

Grab number two.

File.

Export selection firm.

Leaf 02.

Number three file, export selection.

Number three.

And then after this, I will set them up in Speed 3, and that's where I

will end this chapter.

This one is number 5, so I accidentally select it in the wrong way.

Selection.

Number four.

Okay, so that is now all exported correctly.

Just like this fine.

Let's go ahead and save our Maya scene and now inside Speed 3, just to

set it up already.

Let's create a new scene and it can just be a blank over here.

Here we go.

And I'm going to go ahead and just grab or create a new material new

Fern.

And that's pretty much all that we need.

And I'm going to import my color.

Opacity normal turn on two-sided.

And now what I'm going to do is I'm gonna go ahead and I'm going to go

file and I'm just going to import all of the match yet sets to Speed

3.

And you can only import them one at a time, but it's okay.

So input message, set 1.

Two.

Three.

Four and five and looks like that.

We are lucky that they are already in the height rotation.

See, so that's really nice.

So, now that we have these, we can just go to a cutout meshes 12345,

and I could just go ahead and go Leaf, one leave to leave.

Three.

Leave for and leave five.

There we go.

So now we have those all assigned.

So, that should be totally fine.

Now.

And in the next chapter, what we will do is we will get started by

actually creating our phone.

So let's just do a quick shave.

Fern on the score 0 or 1 and let's continue on to the next chapter.
