We're going way back in time to the dark ages of computer graphics: 2006. Blender had been open source for only 3 years when Ton Roosendaal and his Blender Foundation decides to challenge convention and make a legitimate animated short film. The result was "Elephants Dream". It sent ripples through the computer graphics industry, being compared to the likes of Pixar. It also pushed Blender's development forward, proving to the world what was possible *without* expensive commercial applications.
Directed by Bassam Kurdali and a 6-person artist team, this film made history. Today Lampel and I are reviewing "Elephants Dream" with special guest Tim Von Rueden! Join us as we consider the film's narrative, artistry, and technical execution.
So, the bible belt... what's it like at that region?
You need to keep your promise and see piled up snow! A snow-covered terrain is a beautiful thing
I've never really seen snow :O Well, not the kind that sticks to the ground and piles up. And I've also never ice skated
I grew up in bible belt USA and always wondered about the references to snow from the hebrews. Makes sense now
Only in one or two areas, and only for a week or so. Each year I tell myslef I would drive up north to where it snows, and each year I break my promise.
Hahaha good point. Does it snow much there?
Sure! My people have been wandering in the desert for 40 years! We've had enough sun and humidity :)
You prefer the cold to the heat?
But it's safe to say it's no longer winter here, which is a shame
That's an interesting combination. Keep an eye out for [doub;e] rainbows
