Now that you’ve learned how to build in Blender 4.5—from fast character creation & animation to camera moves, lighting, rendering, and captions—it’s time to put your skills into action!

The project for this class is to create a short-form 3D video (like a YouTube Short, Instagram Reel, or TikTok) using the Blender techniques you’ve learned throughout the class.

Here’s what you need to do to join the class project:

Create a 15–20 second short-form 3D video in Blender using the workflow from this class (plan → build → animate → render → edit/caption).
Upload your final video or a link to it in the class project section.
(Optional) Post a few notes on what techniques you used or what you learned while creating your short.

Don’t stress about making it perfect—this project is about applying what you’ve learned and seeing how far you’ve come! Whether it’s a simple character moment, a quick scene reveal, or a cinematic mini-story, I want to see your unique style shine through.

I’ll be checking out your projects and might even feature some of the best ones in future class updates!

Make sure to browse other students’ videos too—it’s a great way to get ideas, share encouragement, and stay inspired.

Can’t wait to see what you create!
