>struggle with the feeling that you might be giving away your advantage?

Nah man, gate-keeping is for pussies we should elevate our understanding by help bringing up more minds to push back at boundaries on the cutting edge.
I wanna see what comes next not remain stuck where we're at.

>Is it worth it?

Imagine who we could be as a species if less people where prone to keep others in the dark when they acquire new insight.

Can you please stop making youtube tutorials?
They're trash, clickbaity, annoying and misleading. And they pollute the search result pushing good content down the list.
Thank you in advance.

I've already had 20 ish people that have been personally trained by me and have moved on from working with me. Some of them have made their own studios, some of them compete with me and some of the even in that position have taken clients from me; heck I have had a couple that have made it to big shot studios as lead animators and modellers for features like Arcane. Even my ex-partner is making big bucks making archviz for big shot studios.

Do I feel like a loser? No. I've been pretty fortunate in my personal life and that is enough for me.

If you keep seeing everything you make and do from a transactional perspective I can fucking guarantee that you will be miserable and unhappy even if you are successful.

I don't think you've come to acceptance with your own abilities...

if that was the case, the Steven Knipping, teacher from the famous Applied Houdini series would never have worked at ILM

But the difference is that he actually worked in the industry and did something within it, enough to be able to teach and pass on knowledge. He's not gatekeeping it like OP is.

but you just said that those who cant do, teach. And yet....good old steve did both? Why are you trying to be Drew Demoralizer?

I think you're misunderstanding what I'm saying.


It's one thing to criticize, it's another to create.

Steven knows a bunch of 3d shit. He worked in the industry. He wants to share that knowledge. He's teaching because he knows the industry and what the fuck he's talking about and wants to share that knowledge.

There's a difference between a knowledgeable teacher that wants to share that shit vs OP who is clearly trying to justify gatekeeping that knowledge and is afraid/jealous of sharing said knowledge "giving people an advantage"

and yet steve doesnt share his tutorials for free on free youtube. I had to spend $900 on them

>vs OP who is clearly trying to justify gatekeeping

boo hoo you actually had to spend money on something.

Boo hoo, OP is mad it's for free. Mother fucking can delete their shit at any single time yet comes to this website to bitch and gatekeep.

paid/free. It really doesn't matter in the end. There's websites like cgpeers/persia/whatthefuckever that are torrent sites that you can download expensive tuts for free instead of spending 900 bucks on. Guess what, you can even download the actual programs people use to create said 3D instead of paying money.

Does is really matter this much?

You are assuming this retard even understands basics like marketing 101. They bitch and complain about making a tutorial for free and if they should be upset about it

if I release my tutorial "for le free" I also have to release
>links to scripts on github that go along with it,
>.hip files that also go along with it,
>.ma files that also go along with it
>alembic files that also go along with it

You have no idea what goes into a quality tutorial that is worthwhile for people to see. All you know is stale static modelling tutorials
