What is Vector Displacement in Blender? (Get ready for Nodevember)

Confused by Blender vector displacement? Don’t worry about the math: we’ll make it intuitive and simple. In this quick CG Cookie intro tutorial by Chris Bailey (@CBaileyFilm ) you will learn how to generate geometry using nothing but a shader. That is the basic idea: using color to “fake“ geometry and shape or bend your material. Chris will show you how to take an ordinary plane and turn it into an animated ocean wave using a single shader. We’ll take an artist’s approach to get you up and running in the most intuitive way possible. You might even start to enjoy vector displacement - who knew it was possible! “WHO IS CG COOKIE?“ We are real people! (OK, maybe some of us are cyborgs - we don’t ask.)
