Blender Python Scripting - A Step-by-Step Guide for Beginner

Boost Your Productivity with Automation and Build Your First Tools

Do you want to supercharge your 3D modelling workflow with the power of automation? Then you've come to the right place!

Blender is an incredibly versatile software, capable of creating stunning 3D models. But, did you know that you can extend its functionality further with Python scripting? This course will get you started with Blender's Python API, so you can streamline your work and improve efficiency. Here are just some of the key skills you’ll gain during this course:

  • Familiarize yourself with Blender’s interface and core functionality.

  • Understand the basics of Python scripting within Blender.

  • Learn to write simple but powerful scripts to automate routine tasks.

  • Discover how to customize Blender to better suit your workflow!

This course is designed for beginners. But what does that mean?

We kick things off in a simple, beginner-friendly style, explaining all the steps in detail. However, if you are new to Blender or Python programming, fear not. You will be perfectly fine starting from scratch. With our online tutorials, you'll be amazed at what you can achieve, with instructor support and online help.

The course begins with a thorough exploration of Blender's interface and its core features. Then, we dive into Python scripting. We'll guide you through all the necessary processes to ensure your scripts run smoothly. You will apply your new skills to your own projects continuously. All project files, additional references, and resources will be included – you won't get stuck. We have talking-head videos along with screencasts for you to follow.

For each of the scripts that you write, you will:

  • Be taught a new scripting concept.

  • Be challenged to apply the lessons to your own scripts.

  • Receive step-by-step guidance on how to write it.

  • Apply your new-found knowledge regularly.

You'll receive lifetime access to the course. Our creators are qualified professionals with a knack for explaining complex concepts in a clear, engaging manner. By the end of the course, you'll be confidently writing Python scripts to automate tasks and boost your productivity in Blender.

Access to this course comes with an optional, free community site where you can share scripts, 3D models, and get help from fellow students, as well as Discord, where you can connect with others.

    This is a great intro to Python. The instructor is very thorough and explains every step. It's not my first code experience-- I've worked quite a bit with Processing so I get the underlying concepts. I think some prior code experience would be helpful-- but it's a very good class.

    This is an enjoyable introduction to practical applications of Python in Blender! I particularly like that you can see the instructor's approach evolving as he explores the problem, adjusts his approach and fixes mistakes. Hopefully this is the kick-off to a series of courses culminating in writing an add-on for Blender!

    Very good introduction into Blender Python; going over many implementations and the foundation/theory behind the programming. The course can move fast sometimes and would recommend pausing and playing more often to fully understand the concept if you aren't familiar with programming.
