Full CGDive COURSES right here on YouTube!

0:00YouTube recently introduced a new

0:02feature called courses. So, this is a

0:04really quick video to let you know that

0:06you can now access many of CG Dive's

0:08rigging courses right on YouTube. So, if

0:11you go to youtube.com/edcgdive,

0:14you can then proceed to the courses

0:16section. So, while courses are a new

0:18feature, they are essentially playlists.

0:21In fact, if we go to the playlist

0:23section, you'll see that some of the

0:25content overlaps. A playlist is a very

0:27general collection of videos. I have a

0:30playlist for shorts, Blender news and

0:32updates, and so on and so forth. But in

0:35the courses section, you'll find the

0:37content that I really designed as video

0:40courses, meaning a series of videos

0:42around a specific topic. Each video

0:45building on top of the previous one. So,

0:47you'll be able to easily access the free

0:49courses that you may be familiar with or

0:51maybe you're not. There is a face it

0:53series if you want to rig faces with

0:55ease. There are the auto rig pro

0:58courses, blender to game engines, my

1:00classic rig anything with rigify course

1:03that is for blender 3.6 and earlier if

1:05you're still using older versions or you

1:07can take the rigify for blender 4 in

1:10later course. This will work even in the

1:12new Blender 5. There is an advanced

1:14rigify course that you can take for

1:16free, the mixamo series. And if you want

1:18to get into manual rigging, you can

1:20watch rigging isn't scary levels one,

1:23two, and three. And now we get to the

1:25paid courses. To access these, you will

1:27need to become a channel member. I'll

1:29explain how in a second. But with these

1:31courses, if you want to keep learning

1:33manual rigging, you can go into rigging

1:35unleashed. This is basically a

1:37continuation of rigging is a scary level

1:40three. And there is also a mechanical

1:42rigging course. Or if you want to go

1:44deeper into rigify, there is the

1:47skeleton rigging series and the rigify

1:49modular face rigging course which uses

1:52the rigify skin system. This really

1:54isn't covered anywhere else, but you can

1:56watch it right here on YouTube. So, how

1:58do you access the membersonly content?

2:01You can go to the homepage.

2:04>> Let me shut myself up for a second. And

2:06then I can click on the join button. And

2:09here you can choose a channel

2:10membership. So in all honesty, supporter

2:13CG diver and CG deep dive will not give

2:17you any particular perks. This is

2:19entirely for people who want to support

2:21me just because. But then we have the

2:23Mark Five level and this will actually

2:26give you access to membersonly videos.

2:28If you join at this level, you'll be

2:30able to watch all of the membersonly

2:32courses, the ones that I have already

2:34uploaded and courses that I will upload

2:37in the future. We also have the CG Live

2:39Patreon. So, this gives you the same

2:41perks as the Mark 5 with some additional

2:44gratitude from me. By the way,

2:46monetization is off on all members only

2:49videos, which means that you shouldn't

2:51see any ads on them. I think it's

2:53ridiculous to pay for something and

2:55still see ads. And in my opinion, an

2:57unbeatable feature of YouTube is

2:59language support. You will get good

3:02quality subtitles for all videos in

3:04almost any human language. I have also

3:07enabled automatic dubbing. So you should

3:09get AI voice translation in a number of

3:12languages. So this is it. In my opinion,

3:15the courses section contains my most

3:17valuable content. So check it out.
