In the next Tutorial we will be continuing the "Suzanne Print" series by turning Suzanne into a Zombie.
The tutorial will be uploaded tomorrow, but I thought I would share this preview as a Speed modelling video instead of a 5 second preview. Let me know if you prefer a preview like this!..
If you want to download the finished model or any of the assets I use in the tutorial, links will be provided in the Blog Post.
I hope you enjoyed this video and as always, thanks for watching!..

In this quick Blender Python Tutorial, we will be taking a look at an error message and how we can fix it.
Looking to learn Python for beginners? You are in the right place. Be sure to check out the Scripting Playlist!.
You may or may not have had this same error message or you may have one similar. I wanted to show you how we can use the Info window to read the Error Message.
Once we understand what the problem is, we can easily fix it by removing the invalid code and replacing it with the correct one.
Even though this was a simple fix, though some Error messages are more complex but by reading the error message we can get a better understanding of the problem.
If you want more videos about error messages, be sure to let me know in the comments below!.

![Blender VFX Tutorial : Taipei Towers [Compositing]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Kl5zFZa44lE/mqdefault.jpg "Blender VFX Tutorial : Taipei Towers [Compositing]
In this Blender VFX Tutorial. we will be compositing the Taipei 101 into a sci fi energy tower. We will duplicate the Taipei tower a couple of times and then using Animation Nodes Addon (link below) we can create an awesome stylized Energy Beam.
Check out the Blog post here: https://darkfallblender.blogspot.com/2019/04/taipei-towers-vfx.html
Now I should note, this is the first time I have used the Animation Nodes Addon and I am still learning how to use it. Since there are tons more nodes to use we can create a whole load of different effects.
Now some of you may already use Animation nodes and if you do, then you will already know how to create this Energy Beam effect. I followed along a tutorial by Chris Prenninger, so you guys should certainly check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ot4XC_9nUd8
As I said, I am very new to this addon and would liked to have duplicated the effect two times, and I am sure any seasoned user of Animation nodes would know how to do this very easily. If you guys have any comments of suggestions are greatly welcome!.
So yeah, I really like animation nodes and will have to set some time aside to learn more about it!.
Since I couldnt duplicate the effect as I hoped, and I did not find much information that would help, so I decided to render out the effect, then re position the Energy beam in the 3d view, then I rendered it, then re-positioned it a third time and rendered that. Then I rendered out the BG video and added the Energy beam in Post.
As I said, there would certainly be a way to just duplicate the effect rather than having to do it the way I did. I hope you found this Blender VFX Tutorial helpful!

In this Blender Compositing VFX Tutorial, we will be composing another Digital Matte Painting: Guardians Coast.
For this Digital Matte Painting, I had a clear Image in mind. I wanted to carve a face into a mountain and then add a castle top village right above it. Along with a waterfall and some atmosphere.
We will be using GIMP for the Image Assets, then using blender for compositing. We will try and compose a fantasy themed Digital Matte Painting.
If the Background you use has motion you will need to track the video then add a couple of nodes to move your assets around. (in this example the Video Background is set on a Tripod so we dont need to track this footage. Be sure to check out our other Matte Paintings that do have Motion).
If you create your own Digital Matte Paintings, be sure to post links in our Facebook Group! (Link below).
