As 3d artists today, we have tools and services at our disposal that shorten the production pipeline tremendously. Online communities and 3d asset platforms like Quixel Megascans/ Quixel Bridge and Sketchfab even make it possible to indirectly collaborate with skilled artists, and some renderfarms such as GarageFarm, offer generous free credits on top of already affordable rates. Combined with the relatively non-destructive nature of 3d, it feels like there’s almost nothing stopping us from creating the 3d animated stories that inspired us to learn Blender in the first place!
Of course in an ideal scenario, developing a concept should be given as much time as it needs so that whatever reaches the production phase is worthy of all the effort to come. However, despite Blender being as amazing as it is, and all the wonderful addons and tools out there, going through the 3d animation pipeline can still be an arduous and sometimes thankless endeavour, and if you’re doing everything on your own for the most part, that might just mean you never get around to actually finishing any animation at all.
In many cases, coming up with a fleshed-out idea for a 3d character animation in Blender can be even more difficult than actually creating the 3d animation itself! But with a few possibly counterintuitive approaches, coming up with a 3d animation concept can be relatively fast and actually executable. In this tut, Marco breaks down how he came up with the concept for his 3d character animation in Blender using Mixamo to Blender animation.
