Learn how to make a tornado with the particle system with a lattice to control the flow of the particles.

Learn how to make objects explode and then assemble together with the use of the explode modifier, the particle system, and the sequencer.

Learn about all of the different settings you can use for objects with the fluid system including obstacle, inflow, and outflow.

Learn how to use particles to quickly create white fluffy clouds in your animations.

When the length of the path curve (actual length, not path length) and radius of the wheel are known, the rotation can be calculated based on Speed-curve that controls the vehicle motion.

Here I will attempt to explain my recent dealings with using Blender Shape Keys to produce convincing lip-sync (Lip-synchronisation, ie: “speech”) for simple, humanoid characters.

This is aimed at people with an understanding of Blender fundamentals like vertex loops, face loops, sequencer and of course, Blender’s new Shape Key system. If these terms mean nothing to you, then you may well struggle to keep up. If you’re familiar with them then I hope this tutorial will prove to be a breeze and your characters will be speaking so fluently you’ll have trouble shutting them up!

Using soft bodies and a wind force you can take a lowly plane with a very simple texture and make it look like a realistically billowing flag.

Using the shape keys you can morph an object between two different shapes and use them to create separate facial expressions. Learn how to use the shape keys to simply morph a box in this tutorial.

Here is a great tutorial on how to do camera tracking in Blender, using the Voodoo camera tracker. The Voodoo software can estimates camera parameters, like position and rotation and reconstructs a 3d scene from image sequences.

At the tutorial, a virtual object is placed in real footage. All credits for the tutorial goes for Sympodius, from the BlenderArtists forums.

Learn how to create animated texturemaps. A very cool tutorial but not for absolute beginners.
