Hey Reader,

Zach here,

With a new dose of inspiration and resources from the 3D world.

Today we’ve got our new Green Screen Keying tutorial from Daniel Nees, a new Pwnisher's “Rampage Rally” Challenge, a free Blender animation course, and ToAnimate's anniversary sale.

Let’s dive right in!

​Green Screen Keying in Blender (Tutorial)​

​

Our very own Master Compositing in Blender course creator, Daniel Nees, just released a brand-new tutorial on green screen keying in Blender.

What makes this one stand out is that you’re learning directly from a professional compositor currently working in the VFX industry. Daniel walks you through the entire workflow and shares some lesser-known tricks for cleaning up your keys.

Also worth noting is that Daniel just published the final two chapters of his Master Compositing in Blender course! That means the 20% Early Bird Discount is ending soon.

📅 20% OFF Early Bird Discount ends August 22nd, 2025, 23:59 CEST.

🎟️ If you want to join in time, use the code EARLYBIRD20 during checkout.

​Pwnisher’s “Rampage Rally” Challenge​

​

Pwnisher is back with another massive 3D animation challenge, this one’s called Rampage Rally.

As always, you’ll get a template scene to work from and can add your own creative twist. The final result is a giant collage of everyone’s work stitched together into one epicly long showcase.

As always, it’s a great chance to push your skills, get visibility, and be part of one of the largest community-driven 3D events out there.

​Free Animation Course by John Knowles​

​

Sticking to the topic of animation, John Knowles, an experienced animator released a free character animation fundamentals course for Blender.

You can watch it on YouTube or enroll for free in his Teachable School to also access resources like demo files and rigs to practice. The lessons are appearing weekly.

This is a great way to get into animation in Blender.

That’s all from me today, have a great weekend, and till next time.
