Was the result (model, texture, lighting, animation) something i’m excited about, something that I like?
Did the lesson draw my attention or was I bored. Did the time run faster or slower, while I was following the tutorial?
Did the teacher speak with nice tone, focused on my learning? Did I feel relaxed and possibly entertained?

Can i use this now in blender, is it applicable, can I integrate the knowledge? Was it purely theory on theoretical examples? Did I learn how to solve a realistic problem, or achieve a certain goal? Was there enough actual practice? Did i do anything on my own or was it all just copy and paste?
Was the time efficiently spent? Was the lesson going too fast, or too slow? Was a single lesson too long, could I hold my attention? Did I learn just enough new techniques, or was it too much for once? Did I solve a problem or achieve the same goal with different approaches?
was the lesson clear and understandable including the language, did I understand every detail? Were there any noises in the background, bad microphone, or unclear image? Does the tutorial follow a certain path, does it have a structure, does it make sense and builds up piece by piece?
And here it is, another CG Boost tutorial. This however was not done by Zach, but by Louis.
I’m mentioning that, because it’s important for me who is talking, what’s the speed and tone of his voice etc. And luis talks perfectly clear.
However, even though this was an entermediate tutorial and he did show and explain everything that he did. there are a few settings or commands that he used, but didn’t explain the basic of its functionality. For sure some commands are self explanatory, but what exactly does an “Apply visual transform to pose” do in detail?
That’s the only thing that I was missing, explanation of those intermediate commands and more complex commands, why using them and a bit more details on those.
And this is only personal, at the end of the fishbot part I got quite bored, with finalizing the detailed animation movement. I’m not sure how this could be presented better, so that it would be fun for me, so it’s nothing generally wrong, i’m just sharing my experience.
But all in all really good tutorial, I had lots of fun most of the time and I tried quite a few new approached to animations, especially with fishbot. Hopefully I’ll get to do the last 3rd part of this tutorial as well.
