Uploaded January 2020 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago
In this Blender Python Tutorial, we will be taking a look at a basic introduction to Blender Python and scripting for beginners.
Looking to learn Python for beginners? You are in the right place. Be sure to check out the Scripting Playlist!.
Now I should mention that I am in no way an expert and in fact I only just started to learn python (and scripting in general) not that long ago.
We will take a look at some tips I have picked up, then arrange our scripting layout (it's a good idea to save a template file for future projects).
In this example we will create an "Object Adder" Add-on. We will create a Panel for the 3D View. It will have a couple of buttons that when pressed, will add the specified object to our scene.
I know most of you will have an idea in mind, something you wish to achieve using python and we won't be able to cover everything in this one video. That being said, if you guys have any suggestions on what you want to see be sure to leave a comment below and I will try and answer it (or link to relevant information) if possible.
I hope you not only find this Blender Python Tutorial helpful but I also hope it inspires you to continue to learn python.

In this video we will be looking at how we can create some Digital Graffiti using Gimp. It can then be used for a number of things (though in this example I add it to a video of a wall. Which was done using Blender).
Creating Digital Graffiti Assets like this can add more detail to your shot and it doesnt take long to make. If you guys like this video, let me know in the comments below and I will try and make more!.

![Blender Python Tutorial : How to create and assign a Material Shader [learn python for beginners]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/eo7UjKFiagk/mqdefault.jpg "Blender Python Tutorial : How to create and assign a Material Shader [learn python for beginners]
In this Blender Python Tutorial, we will be taking a look at not only creating a Shader Material but also assigning that material to the currently selected object.
Looking to learn Python for beginners? You are in the right place. Be sure to check out the Scripting Playlist!.
We can create something simple or something complex but both ways will be using an Operator. We first create a panel where our button will live. Then we can create a simple operator, that when pressed will create and assign a Shader Material to the Selected Object.
If you want the user to have any options, we can easily upgrade the simple operator and make it become a popup dialog box. We can then giver the user control over any setting or option. In this example we want the user to be able to set the color before adding the Shader.

In this Blender Python Tutorial, we will be taking a look at how I created a fairly simple Random Word Generator.
Looking to learn Python for beginners? You are in the right place. Be sure to check out the Scripting Playlist!.
In the last video I created some Digital Graffiti and some of you have asked how I came up with the Name and Concept. As you guys may already know, I am terrible when it comes to naming things so using Python and Blender I created WordGen 1.0.. Obviously this is not a serious Add-on but if you guys want to use it there will be a link in the blog be sure to check that out.
You can take this further and add more functions and other things to generate such as Places, Names and more.
I hope you find this video helpful and as always thanks for watching!..
