Learning 3D animation on the internet

Blender Quick Start

If you just downloaded Blender and never tried your hand at any 3D graphics, start here.

"Noob to Pro" Beginner Tutorials

A very, very good starter's tutorial, in Wiki format. My personal favorite so far. No instant results, but very good, slow, careful, methodical explaining of what you see and what is happening, and what means what.
Tip: for instant results, press F12 - a picture will appear in a separate window. That button is used for rendering. As you learn to do things, the picture in this window changes. I got this from another tutorial.

Tutorial Syntax

This is where you begin your studies: learning to understand the tutorials.
Somewhere else there is that Golden Rule of Blender: 1 hand on the keyboard, 1 hand on the mouse.
Buttons, shortcuts etc are very important so learn to recognize them.
Essential for laptop users, no-middle-mouse-button users, single-button-mouse users, no-mouse users and all noobs in general.

David Jarvis Blender Tutorial

A very clear, short and helpful tutorial, producing an instant result - a colored cube. Just what every newbie wants.

Sculpted Prims

Most well-known and widely used Blender sculptie tutorial, by Amanda Levitsky.

Sculpted Prims

Another link for the same Amanda Levitsky's tutorial, if you're having problems with the first one.

Blender to Sculptie Tutorial

Extremely helpful for Second Life users (making sculpties with Blender is all the rage in SL these days) but useful to other beginners too.

How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Blender (Almost)

This is one blogger's account on their experience in using Blender specifically to create sculpties.
Complete with newbie advice, pictures (making a cool martini glass out of a ball) and a long discussion by other Blender/SL users.

Blender 3D Animation Tutorials

How to make animations using Blender

User Guide: Animation

This is an animation tutorial from the Blender documentation project that was written for an older version of Blender. Still, it's good to learn about keys and what to do with them, before you proceed, because in the next tutorial those things are not explained.

Noob to Pro: Basic Animation

After you've learned about keys, proceed with this tutorial. It goes on from basic to not-so-basic animation and is actually pretty good.
