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.
and there is a lot of uneeded scenes !
i have the feeling that dialog was not really important here !
yeah I agree.
To me it felt like the old man is hiding things from him
As we get to the end, it looks like the actions around them are less and less controled by them.
That's cool to know.
yeah I agree for the name.
The name of the film doesn't make sense either.
I also thought he said email the first time.
I heard "Email" too :)
