Elephants Dream - animasjonsfilm

[Daniel]

(Det fins allerede en tråd om filmen under Film/tv, men jeg tenkte dere her også kunne være interessert i den.)

 

Elephants Dream er en animert kortfilm, lagd hovedsakelig med fri programvare.

 

Elephants Dream is a computer-generated short film made primarily using open source applications and premiered on March 24, 2006 after about 8 months of work. Beginning production in September, 2005, it was developed under the name Orange by a team of seven artists and animators from around the world. It was originally known as Machina, before being changed to Elephants Dream to more closely match the way the script was developed.

 

The film was first announced in May, 2005 by Ton Roosendaal, the chairman of the Blender Foundation and the lead developer of the foundation's program, Blender. A 3D modelling, animating, and rendering application, Blender was the primary piece of software used in the creation of the film.

 

The film's purpose is primarily to field test, develop and showcase the capabilities of open source software, demonstrating what can be done with such tools in the field of organizing and producing quality content for films.

 

During the film's development, several new features such as an integrated node-based compositor, hair and fur rendering, rewritten animation system and render pipeline, and many workflow tweaks and upgrades were added into Blender especially for the project.
