Monetising my new skill (video animation with Blender)

[Vasudev Soni]

I recently started learning Blender and I am really enjoying it. I am fully motivated to learn it properly and become an expert in it.

I want advice whether I should learn it professionally and how to monetise it in the future.

What are some ways that I can monetise this skill, or turn it into some kind of fastlane business?

Any suggestions or feedback will be appreciated.

A forum member in here has a course on Blender. I can't remember who though.

Our 12 yo has created a few YouTube shorts with Blender. They're only a few seconds long but one had 5k views. Maybe you can post your videos to platforms while you're learning?

Thanks for your feedback. I had this in mind and will try to do it as I go along.

Tutorial videos are a good idea.
Have you also checked the possibility to sell 3D complex models from Blender on specific platforms/online shops?

Create a YouTube channel, start uploading. Thank me later.

Our 12 yo didn't overthink it or try. He just did, and got 5k+ views and 100+ Likes!

Here's a Blender video he did last week before switching to football videos. I'm sure he'll switch again next week.

Yes, I can sell 3D models on marketplaces that people can buy. This can also be a good idea.
As of tutorial videos, I think there-are already lots of channels doing that. I want to do something unique like posting short animation type videos and stuff.

Yeah, he's 12 so gets into lots of things. It's hard for me to keep up!
