Project files provided with this workshop include Jose’s storyboards, work-in-progress images, and his final, multi-layered Photoshop document. As the final step in his pipeline, he discusses his personal approach to using render passes generated from Blender to create alpha channels that aid the final polishing work done in Photoshop.

Moving on to cover lighting and texturing in Blender, Jose proceeds to master a fully rendered scene complete with reflections, fog, and ambient occlusion, sharing his thought processes and techniques along the way. Using the “Neo City” Sci-Fi Mini Kit by KitBash3D, he teaches his techniques for isolating individual elements from larger models in Blender to create your own mini-assets to help populate and customize your scene even further. Jose details the basics of Blender and covers how to incorporate 3D assets to quickly populate a background design with intricate details and powerful silhouettes.

Starting with a rough storyboard, Jose demonstrates how to match a perspective and block out a scene in Blender before adding fine details and establishing the lighting with a combination of photo-bashing and digital painting in Photoshop. In this 4.5-hour workshop, Jose demonstrates the speed at which 2D animation backgrounds can be created with the help of 3D assets, using Blender and Photoshop as his tools of choice.
