Hey all!

This video took a lot longer than I anticipated! I hope you guys smile hugely at the trailer in the opening. It was sooooooooo fun to make! It's probably one of the most ridiculous things I've ever made, hahaha.

This video aims to point you in the right direction of starting to interpret tutorials for situations where it might not be straight forward to get the result you need. Since Blender's basic functions haven't changed (subdivided is still subdivided), it's not as hard as it seems - the fear makes it hard. I hope that the little humor in the video comes across well and makes the process just a little less serious and easier to navigate!

PS, below are the relevant links and info! :)

- All music and most sound effects were taken from the YouTube Library. Those that weren't I made, which was basically only the typing sound in the trailer.

- All parrot images come from MorgueFile.
