Blender Grease Pencil - Sci-fi Action Animatic Tutorial - 1 of 4 -3D layout, exploration, camera
Part 1 of 4.
Focusing on 3D Layout, exploring the environment, adding atmosphere lighting, positioning characters and scouting for camera angles.
REGARDING THE WORLD VOLUME : In 4.2 onward, EEVEE got rewritten, and there is NO World volume anymore (yeh, I Know.....I hate this change) , so the way to do this now is to create a massive object like a sphere or cube, and in the OBJECT side of the shading, add a PRINCIPLED VOLUME to that object. The result is similar enough. RIP world volume ;(
