Welcome to the Particle City Tutorial Series! I hope you're excited because this is going to be one amazing ride!

Particle City is a 9 part tutorial series with 5-1/2 hours of mind-bending awesomeness.  You can watch the series for free on YouTube with ads, but by buying the series here you get so much more, including all the lessons ad-free, all project files and a Master Pack of assets inspired by the series.  

Learn how to use particle systems to create a massive futuristic city-scape that won't melt your computer. Particles in blender use the power of instanced geometry to create huge scenes with low polygon counts - so we can really push things to the max!  We'll also use this approach to create procedural flying cars and lanes of traffic.  

We then move into the world of shaders.  First we'll go step by step through the process of creating a procedural city building texture with glowing windows and sci-fi randomness.  Then, we get a bit crazy and use shaders to create fake volumetric clouds and atmosphere that can render a billion (exaggeration) times faster than regular volumes in Blender.  Things then get really out of hand when we throw in some rain and lightning just for fun.  

This is just the tip of the sci-fi iceberg.  We also discuss things like camera shake, making things look cinematic, how to speed up your render times and we animate some hero cars to lead the eye through the scene.  We then go really nuts and make an outrageous hologram landing pad that makes no sense whatsoever but looks sick! 

So buckle up and get ready to sci-fi with your host, Chris Bailey from CBaileyFilm!

Why you should buy this series:

  1. Buying the series will get you every project file used for each part of the tutorial.  That's 20 blender files I saved progressively as I built the scene during the making of the series.  With these files you can see how I progressed every stage of the project step by step.  Plus you can dissect them for your own projects as well!
  2. You also get all 9 lessons as downloadable video files that are AD FREE! That's right! No Ads! And you can load them onto any device and watch them (gasp) offline in glorious UHD4k (2720x1530)!!! 
  3. You also get the MASTER PACK - A collection of shaders, particle systems, and models from the series cleaned up, improved and ready to use in any project you're working on.  This is a genuine asset pack worth the price of admission alone! 
  4. Go ahead.  Treat yourself.  Stop reading and just buy it!
