WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:0 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.700 Next up on our list, we're going to work on 00:00:02.700 --> 00:00:04.665 creating some blinds for our house. 00:00:04.665 --> 00:00:06.510 At the moment, you can see everywhere 00:00:06.510 --> 00:00:08.505 all of the windows are completely open. 00:00:08.505 --> 00:00:10.200 So let's add in a couple of blinds 00:00:10.200 --> 00:00:11.940 in the second floor and over here 00:00:11.940 --> 00:00:13.635 on the right side to add in 00:00:13.635 --> 00:00:15.675 a little bit of privacy to a house. 00:00:15.675 --> 00:00:18.269 To do this, we're going to use the cloth simulation. 00:00:18.269 --> 00:00:19.770 Over on the right side. We're going to 00:00:19.770 --> 00:00:21.975 right-click and create a new collection. 00:00:21.975 --> 00:00:24.120 And we'll call this collection by double-clicking. 00:00:24.120 --> 00:00:25.740 It will call it blinds, 00:00:25.740 --> 00:00:27.270 will jump to that collection by 00:00:27.270 --> 00:00:29.160 hating six on our keyboard, 00:00:29.160 --> 00:00:31.275 or actually five on our keyboard. 00:00:31.275 --> 00:00:34.005 And then we're going to add in a couple of objects. 00:00:34.005 --> 00:00:35.580 First, let's add an a ground 00:00:35.580 --> 00:00:37.110 for the clot to actually fall on. 00:00:37.110 --> 00:00:40.080 I'm going to press Shift a and add in a plane object. 00:00:40.080 --> 00:00:41.890 We'll scale it up a little bit. 00:00:41.890 --> 00:00:44.465 I'll press Shift a and add in another plane. 00:00:44.465 --> 00:00:45.785 This time we're going to rotate it 00:00:45.785 --> 00:00:47.735 along the x by 90 degrees. 00:00:47.735 --> 00:00:49.955 This is going to be the actual blinds. 00:00:49.955 --> 00:00:52.220 Will drag it up and then press S 00:00:52.220 --> 00:00:54.305 and Z and skill it out this way. 00:00:54.305 --> 00:00:56.240 Maybe make it a bit skinnier, 00:00:56.240 --> 00:00:59.120 something like that will look pretty good. 00:00:59.120 --> 00:00:59.990 Just like that. 00:00:59.990 --> 00:01:02.855 Maybe a bit taller as well, just like that. 00:01:02.855 --> 00:01:05.840 Next up for the cloth simulation to actually work, 00:01:05.840 --> 00:01:07.880 we need geometry on our object. 00:01:07.880 --> 00:01:09.245 If we go into edit mode, 00:01:09.245 --> 00:01:10.670 you're gonna notice we only have 00:01:10.670 --> 00:01:12.920 four vertices along the corners. 00:01:12.920 --> 00:01:15.785 That's not going to work at all for a cloth simulation. 00:01:15.785 --> 00:01:17.720 So let's add in a bunch of luke cuts 00:01:17.720 --> 00:01:20.090 and subdivisions and make this better. 00:01:20.090 --> 00:01:22.970 And just like the displacement modifier, 00:01:22.970 --> 00:01:24.770 you want to have square faces 00:01:24.770 --> 00:01:27.305 for the cloth simulation to look good. 00:01:27.305 --> 00:01:28.880 So for this we're going to press 00:01:28.880 --> 00:01:30.860 Control R and we're going to add in. 00:01:30.860 --> 00:01:32.690 Let's go with six loop cuts, 00:01:32.690 --> 00:01:35.840 like this, left-click and then right-click. 00:01:35.840 --> 00:01:38.135 And then we'll add in to loop, cuts down the middle. 00:01:38.135 --> 00:01:40.385 So Control R to loop cuts, 00:01:40.385 --> 00:01:42.305 left-click and then right-click. 00:01:42.305 --> 00:01:45.139 And there you go. We now have square faces. 00:01:45.139 --> 00:01:48.290 At this point we can press a to select everything, 00:01:48.290 --> 00:01:50.240 Right-click and then sub-divide. 00:01:50.240 --> 00:01:52.595 It, will do this one more time. 00:01:52.595 --> 00:01:55.040 And now to actually create the look of lines, 00:01:55.040 --> 00:01:57.005 we're going to select every other one 00:01:57.005 --> 00:01:58.430 and then move them forward. 00:01:58.430 --> 00:02:00.500 So for example, I'm going to hold Alt and 00:02:00.500 --> 00:02:02.720 select that loop holding Shift. 00:02:02.720 --> 00:02:04.490 I'll select this loop, this loop, 00:02:04.490 --> 00:02:07.565 and then every other one, just like this. 00:02:07.565 --> 00:02:09.470 And then we're going to move these forward. 00:02:09.470 --> 00:02:12.710 So press G and then y and drag them forward 00:02:12.710 --> 00:02:16.910 until we get the look of blinds somewhere around there. 00:02:16.910 --> 00:02:20.510 At this point we can press S and then x and scale it in. 00:02:20.510 --> 00:02:21.770 So it's a bit skinnier, 00:02:21.770 --> 00:02:23.510 something like that will look good. 00:02:23.510 --> 00:02:25.910 Now let's actually create the cloth simulation. 00:02:25.910 --> 00:02:27.410 So over on the right side, 00:02:27.410 --> 00:02:29.450 we're gonna go over to the Physics panel 00:02:29.450 --> 00:02:32.180 and then click on the cloth simulation. 00:02:32.180 --> 00:02:34.190 We're going to select a V ground floor 00:02:34.190 --> 00:02:35.375 and add in a collision. 00:02:35.375 --> 00:02:37.400 So this actually collides with it. 00:02:37.400 --> 00:02:38.930 Now we're going to just 00:02:38.930 --> 00:02:40.490 play it and see what it looks like. 00:02:40.490 --> 00:02:41.870 So if I hit the spacebar, 00:02:41.870 --> 00:02:45.830 we can see this is the effect and that's pretty bad. 00:02:45.830 --> 00:02:47.375 So let's go ahead and fix that. 00:02:47.375 --> 00:02:48.365 We're going to restart. 00:02:48.365 --> 00:02:49.940 And first off, we need to add in 00:02:49.940 --> 00:02:53.705 a pin group so the top vertices do not move. 00:02:53.705 --> 00:02:56.000 Jump over to the object data panel 00:02:56.000 --> 00:02:57.965 and create a new vertex group, 00:02:57.965 --> 00:02:59.915 and then go into edit mode. 00:02:59.915 --> 00:03:02.000 Holding the Alt key, Let's select 00:03:02.000 --> 00:03:05.075 the top vertices and then click Assign. 00:03:05.075 --> 00:03:07.610 I'm also going to sub-divide everything. 00:03:07.610 --> 00:03:09.545 So press a to select everything, 00:03:09.545 --> 00:03:11.330 Right-click and sub-divide it so 00:03:11.330 --> 00:03:13.700 we have more geometry to work with. 00:03:13.700 --> 00:03:16.040 Then we'll go out of edit mode and then jump 00:03:16.040 --> 00:03:18.350 over to the Physics panel once again. 00:03:18.350 --> 00:03:19.640 And to assign it 00:03:19.640 --> 00:03:22.100 that vertex group to the top where the painting is, 00:03:22.100 --> 00:03:25.040 we need to open up the shape panel right here. 00:03:25.040 --> 00:03:26.405 And then for the pin group, 00:03:26.405 --> 00:03:28.925 select the group that we just created. 00:03:28.925 --> 00:03:31.625 Now, those vertices should not move. 00:03:31.625 --> 00:03:33.200 Let's restart our animation 00:03:33.200 --> 00:03:35.075 and hit the spacebar to play it. 00:03:35.075 --> 00:03:37.175 And you can see it's working. 00:03:37.175 --> 00:03:39.425 Now what we need to do is just create 00:03:39.425 --> 00:03:41.750 a cool look for our currents. 00:03:41.750 --> 00:03:43.745 I'm going to drag this plane down. 00:03:43.745 --> 00:03:46.280 And then we'll press the space bar once again. 00:03:46.280 --> 00:03:49.085 And if we grab the plane and move this up, 00:03:49.085 --> 00:03:51.425 we can actually move the blinds around. 00:03:51.425 --> 00:03:54.830 So something like this will look pretty good. 00:03:54.830 --> 00:03:55.670 Just like that. 00:03:55.670 --> 00:03:57.860 I want them to just be like on the ground. 00:03:57.860 --> 00:04:00.260 And another thing you're going to notice is that it's 00:04:00.260 --> 00:04:02.689 colliding and going through itself. 00:04:02.689 --> 00:04:06.140 To fix that, select your cloth and we'll scroll 00:04:06.140 --> 00:04:09.635 down to the collision and then turn on self collision. 00:04:09.635 --> 00:04:10.880 So check that box right there 00:04:10.880 --> 00:04:12.350 and that will fix the issue. 00:04:12.350 --> 00:04:15.120 Let's restart and do it again. 00:04:15.790 --> 00:04:18.830 And there we go. That is looking pretty good. 00:04:18.830 --> 00:04:20.375 We now have some nice cloth, 00:04:20.375 --> 00:04:22.790 but I wanted to go in the other direction. 00:04:22.790 --> 00:04:23.870 I don't want it to go on the front. 00:04:23.870 --> 00:04:25.970 I actually want it to go in the back. 00:04:25.970 --> 00:04:28.280 Restart and we'll drag this below, 00:04:28.280 --> 00:04:29.840 will hit the spacebar once again 00:04:29.840 --> 00:04:31.370 and then just move this around, 00:04:31.370 --> 00:04:32.735 kind of bounce it a little bit 00:04:32.735 --> 00:04:34.685 until you get the shape that you want. 00:04:34.685 --> 00:04:38.730 Something like that actually might look pretty good. 00:04:38.890 --> 00:04:41.660 And there we go, Actually like that. 00:04:41.660 --> 00:04:43.730 Look, let's select our object. 00:04:43.730 --> 00:04:45.440 And before we do anything else, 00:04:45.440 --> 00:04:47.390 and let's duplicate this and place it in 00:04:47.390 --> 00:04:50.330 another layer just in case we want to go back. 00:04:50.330 --> 00:04:52.010 So with this object selected, 00:04:52.010 --> 00:04:55.085 I'm going to press Shift D and then right-click. 00:04:55.085 --> 00:04:58.205 I'm going to hit M and move it to a new collection. 00:04:58.205 --> 00:05:01.820 And we'll just call this collection backups just in 00:05:01.820 --> 00:05:03.500 case we want to use that frame 00:05:03.500 --> 00:05:05.780 another simulation later or something, 00:05:05.780 --> 00:05:08.405 we should always have a backup just in case. 00:05:08.405 --> 00:05:10.190 Then you can turn that off by 00:05:10.190 --> 00:05:12.780 clicking that little checkbox. 00:05:13.270 --> 00:05:16.190 Now that we're happy with the look of our cloth, 00:05:16.190 --> 00:05:17.330 we can select it, 00:05:17.330 --> 00:05:19.040 go over to the Modifier Tab, 00:05:19.040 --> 00:05:21.665 and then apply the cloth simulation. 00:05:21.665 --> 00:05:23.705 Now we can see if we go into edit mode, 00:05:23.705 --> 00:05:26.600 those vertices are now stuck in place. 00:05:26.600 --> 00:05:28.280 To smooth this out a bit more, 00:05:28.280 --> 00:05:28.925 we're going to add in 00:05:28.925 --> 00:05:31.370 another subdivision surface modifier, 00:05:31.370 --> 00:05:33.950 right-click and then shade it smooth. 00:05:33.950 --> 00:05:35.270 And there we go. 00:05:35.270 --> 00:05:36.710 That is looking really good. 00:05:36.710 --> 00:05:39.200 Let's scale this on the x just slightly so it's 00:05:39.200 --> 00:05:42.020 a bit skinnier like that. 00:05:42.020 --> 00:05:43.940 And then also we're going to add in 00:05:43.940 --> 00:05:45.680 a solidify modifier because 00:05:45.680 --> 00:05:47.990 at the moment you can see it's paper then. 00:05:47.990 --> 00:05:51.455 So click Add Modifier and then select solidify, 00:05:51.455 --> 00:05:53.510 press Control a and apply the scale 00:05:53.510 --> 00:05:55.340 just so it applies it correctly. 00:05:55.340 --> 00:05:57.230 And that's basically it. 00:05:57.230 --> 00:05:59.180 We might need to change the thickness and just 00:05:59.180 --> 00:06:02.280 slightly something like that. 00:06:02.350 --> 00:06:04.790 And that looks really good. 00:06:04.790 --> 00:06:06.200 Let's go ahead and delete this plane. 00:06:06.200 --> 00:06:07.790 We don't need it anymore. 00:06:07.790 --> 00:06:10.385 And then for the material, for this object, 00:06:10.385 --> 00:06:11.780 we want to create a material that 00:06:11.780 --> 00:06:13.820 line actually passes through it. 00:06:13.820 --> 00:06:16.010 It's going to be similar to the grass material. 00:06:16.010 --> 00:06:17.705 We're going to use a translucent. 00:06:17.705 --> 00:06:19.595 So we'll jump over to the Material tab 00:06:19.595 --> 00:06:21.425 and create a new one. 00:06:21.425 --> 00:06:23.900 Will come up to the top menu end split 00:06:23.900 --> 00:06:26.705 this view and then switch it over to the shader editor, 00:06:26.705 --> 00:06:29.510 then press N to close off that panel. 00:06:29.510 --> 00:06:31.640 So for this material, 00:06:31.640 --> 00:06:34.160 we're going to press Shift a and add in a new shader 00:06:34.160 --> 00:06:35.435 and then a mix shader. 00:06:35.435 --> 00:06:36.890 We'll place it right here 00:06:36.890 --> 00:06:38.645 and then shift a and we'll add an, 00:06:38.645 --> 00:06:41.570 a translucent shader and place it here. 00:06:41.570 --> 00:06:43.580 We'll take the translucent and 00:06:43.580 --> 00:06:46.145 plug it into the mix shader. 00:06:46.145 --> 00:06:47.990 And then we'll open up the preview. 00:06:47.990 --> 00:06:49.580 And this is the result that we're getting. 00:06:49.580 --> 00:06:50.900 You can see light is passing 00:06:50.900 --> 00:06:52.355 through it just a little bit. 00:06:52.355 --> 00:06:55.325 If the factor is all the way up at 100%, 00:06:55.325 --> 00:06:57.395 that means it's going to be full translucent. 00:06:57.395 --> 00:06:58.490 We don't really want that. 00:06:58.490 --> 00:07:00.515 We only want it to be about halfway. 00:07:00.515 --> 00:07:03.290 So around a value of 0.5 or so, 00:07:03.290 --> 00:07:05.300 or 0.4 will be pretty good. 00:07:05.300 --> 00:07:06.830 As for the color of this, 00:07:06.830 --> 00:07:07.910 we're going to set it over to 00:07:07.910 --> 00:07:11.150 a nice yellow somewhere around here, 00:07:11.150 --> 00:07:12.470 like a tan color. 00:07:12.470 --> 00:07:14.810 That looks pretty good. And it 00:07:14.810 --> 00:07:16.910 to create the look of a fabric material, 00:07:16.910 --> 00:07:19.355 we're going to add an a for null node. 00:07:19.355 --> 00:07:20.900 So go over to input and then 00:07:20.900 --> 00:07:23.645 select it for now, right here. 00:07:23.645 --> 00:07:26.240 We're going to take this and plug it directly 00:07:26.240 --> 00:07:28.595 into the roughness of this shader. 00:07:28.595 --> 00:07:30.710 We'll add in one more node to control this, 00:07:30.710 --> 00:07:33.920 we'll add in a converter math node and place it here, 00:07:33.920 --> 00:07:36.830 and then switch it over to the multiply mode. 00:07:36.830 --> 00:07:38.480 As for the value right here, 00:07:38.480 --> 00:07:40.835 we're going to set it all the way up to four. 00:07:40.835 --> 00:07:42.350 We'll take a look at this now if we 00:07:42.350 --> 00:07:43.745 go into rendered view, 00:07:43.745 --> 00:07:45.245 here is the result. 00:07:45.245 --> 00:07:48.050 Will be able to see this a bit better once we add it to 00:07:48.050 --> 00:07:49.220 the house and actually 00:07:49.220 --> 00:07:51.470 see how the light interacts with it. 00:07:51.470 --> 00:07:53.930 So with that done, we're gonna go ahead and close 00:07:53.930 --> 00:07:56.435 off this panel by clicking and dragging over. 00:07:56.435 --> 00:07:58.370 And make sure you're constantly saving 00:07:58.370 --> 00:08:00.485 your project just in case blender crashes. 00:08:00.485 --> 00:08:02.600 So to do that, press Control S. 00:08:02.600 --> 00:08:05.630 And now let's place this inside our house. 00:08:05.630 --> 00:08:07.310 I'm going to hit Shift 1, 00:08:07.310 --> 00:08:10.535 2, 3, and 4. 00:08:10.535 --> 00:08:13.175 To bring back the entire scene. 00:08:13.175 --> 00:08:15.200 We'll go into front view, 00:08:15.200 --> 00:08:17.195 z, go into wire-frame, 00:08:17.195 --> 00:08:19.220 scale this down and then place it in 00:08:19.220 --> 00:08:21.230 the second floor right 00:08:21.230 --> 00:08:22.880 about there and then line it up 00:08:22.880 --> 00:08:25.745 properly, something like that. 00:08:25.745 --> 00:08:29.120 We'll go into top view and place this in the right spot. 00:08:29.120 --> 00:08:32.210 So drag it over to the front. Right about there. 00:08:32.210 --> 00:08:32.750 Looks good. 00:08:32.750 --> 00:08:36.995 Maybe rotate it a bit and place it right about there. 00:08:36.995 --> 00:08:38.225 Next I'm going to press 00:08:38.225 --> 00:08:40.730 Alt D and place it over in this location. 00:08:40.730 --> 00:08:44.060 Will rotate it around and place it right about there. 00:08:44.060 --> 00:08:46.550 Looks pretty good. 00:08:46.550 --> 00:08:48.800 And make sure that it's not 00:08:48.800 --> 00:08:50.270 peeking through the windows at all, 00:08:50.270 --> 00:08:51.965 that it's right on the edge. 00:08:51.965 --> 00:08:53.870 And then we'll go into top you once again, 00:08:53.870 --> 00:08:55.235 we'll place it on the other side. 00:08:55.235 --> 00:08:58.145 So Alt D, we'll place it over here. 00:08:58.145 --> 00:09:01.220 And then finally, I will select this one, 00:09:01.220 --> 00:09:04.460 alt D and place it on this side. 00:09:04.460 --> 00:09:07.295 Right about there is good. 00:09:07.295 --> 00:09:09.680 And also just to make it a little bit different, 00:09:09.680 --> 00:09:12.365 we're going to mirror this along the x location. 00:09:12.365 --> 00:09:15.185 So press Control M and then select x, 00:09:15.185 --> 00:09:17.210 and then it'll mirror it just so it's different 00:09:17.210 --> 00:09:19.835 from this one on the left, like that. 00:09:19.835 --> 00:09:22.265 And that looks pretty good. 00:09:22.265 --> 00:09:25.820 Let's go into camera view and take a look at it. 00:09:25.820 --> 00:09:28.400 I'll zoom in and press Z and go into 00:09:28.400 --> 00:09:31.775 rendered view just to make sure everything looks good. 00:09:31.775 --> 00:09:34.040 And then Togo overlays. 00:09:34.040 --> 00:09:35.900 And as you can see, it does look pretty 00:09:35.900 --> 00:09:38.300 good if you want there to be more transparency. 00:09:38.300 --> 00:09:40.115 So you can see the back just a little bit. 00:09:40.115 --> 00:09:43.175 You can bring up the translucency even higher. 00:09:43.175 --> 00:09:46.835 So probably around a value of 0.5 is probably good. 00:09:46.835 --> 00:09:49.430 And then double-check that the curtains aren't floating, 00:09:49.430 --> 00:09:52.175 so make sure they're on the ground just like that. 00:09:52.175 --> 00:09:54.320 And then also double-check that they're a 00:09:54.320 --> 00:09:56.750 pretty high and close to the ceiling, 00:09:56.750 --> 00:09:59.210 or it's going to look a bit weird from the camera view. 00:09:59.210 --> 00:10:00.485 So I'll go into edit mode. 00:10:00.485 --> 00:10:03.170 I'll select that top bit and just move them 00:10:03.170 --> 00:10:04.580 up just a little bit so 00:10:04.580 --> 00:10:06.380 they're right next to the ceiling. 00:10:06.380 --> 00:10:08.120 And since we all did that, 00:10:08.120 --> 00:10:09.620 that should apply to the rest 00:10:09.620 --> 00:10:11.480 of the object as you can see. 00:10:11.480 --> 00:10:13.595 So we'll grab this one will actually move it 00:10:13.595 --> 00:10:15.830 along the y so it's closer 00:10:15.830 --> 00:10:18.110 to the corner and 00:10:18.110 --> 00:10:20.000 it is a little bit further away from the window. 00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:22.115 So I'll drag it this way as well. 00:10:22.115 --> 00:10:24.110 We'll drag this one this way. 00:10:24.110 --> 00:10:25.955 There we go, that's better. 00:10:25.955 --> 00:10:27.485 And then we'll double-check this one. 00:10:27.485 --> 00:10:29.270 We can drag it actually closer to 00:10:29.270 --> 00:10:31.400 the right wall and 00:10:31.400 --> 00:10:33.530 then we'll drag it closer to the window. 00:10:33.530 --> 00:10:37.820 So gn, so G and X and drag it right about. 00:10:37.820 --> 00:10:39.710 There is good. 00:10:39.710 --> 00:10:40.850 And there we go. 00:10:40.850 --> 00:10:42.935 That is looking really nice. 00:10:42.935 --> 00:10:44.810 And before this video ends, 00:10:44.810 --> 00:10:46.790 and let's duplicate those objects and place 00:10:46.790 --> 00:10:49.025 it on the bottom floor next to the stairs. 00:10:49.025 --> 00:10:50.540 So I will select this one, 00:10:50.540 --> 00:10:52.235 go into top view. 00:10:52.235 --> 00:10:54.200 And this time I'm going to press shift D 00:10:54.200 --> 00:10:55.880 Just in case I want to edit it. 00:10:55.880 --> 00:10:57.170 So then we'll rotate it this 00:10:57.170 --> 00:11:00.420 way and place it right about there. 00:11:01.170 --> 00:11:03.070 Drag it underneath. 00:11:03.070 --> 00:11:05.035 So press G and Z and drag it underneath 00:11:05.035 --> 00:11:07.600 until its resting right on the floor. 00:11:07.600 --> 00:11:10.720 Right about there is good will go into 00:11:10.720 --> 00:11:12.610 edit mode and drag all of 00:11:12.610 --> 00:11:15.040 those vertices up just other past the window, 00:11:15.040 --> 00:11:17.785 just in case the camera can see it. 00:11:17.785 --> 00:11:20.095 And there we go. 00:11:20.095 --> 00:11:21.250 That looks pretty good to me and we'll 00:11:21.250 --> 00:11:23.440 duplicate it and place it on the other side. 00:11:23.440 --> 00:11:26.395 So we'll press Alt D Then why? 00:11:26.395 --> 00:11:28.210 And drag it over here. 00:11:28.210 --> 00:11:29.890 Let's take a look at that from 00:11:29.890 --> 00:11:31.600 the camera view will present 00:11:31.600 --> 00:11:34.855 Z and go into rendered view. And there we go. 00:11:34.855 --> 00:11:37.210 That is looking really nice. 00:11:37.210 --> 00:11:39.370 In the next video, we're going to set up 00:11:39.370 --> 00:11:43.040 the Render Settings and then render out an image.
