    1. Hey friends yesterday the BLENDER DEMO in IIT was great…B.Tech and M.Tech guys in front of me…30 – 40 people

      I think i had told them all i had thought ….

      i had planned it for 1 hour ..time and constraints also permits

      so it was a 2 and 1/2 hour presentation.

      i am satisfied with my efforts … though there are some areas to look upon in terms of verbal and presentation skills

      Initially i faced some graphics-hardware issues

      I had given presentation on Ubuntu laptop

      I want to run Club Silo game from the .Blend but dont know game menus were not responding to key strokes…though i had tested it on windows and fedora worked fine
      but anyways….

      So here is WHAT I HAD DONE ?…I you wanna know

      1. I had started with Blender intro – Is it Blender or Blunder ??

      2. Then what you can do with it .

      3d Images – Shown them

      Movies – Elephants dream (shown them)
      – Plumiferos Movie (Screen Shots)
      – Blender in spider man 2 ??(discussed)
      – Fluid Simulation (Still images + Mike pan’s demo reel (had Fluid demo)

      Standalone 3d games – Club Silo (luma labs)
      {Run it from .blend ,faced some issues – graphic card compatibility }
      – Some other game demos shown

      3. Compared Blender with max,maya

      4. Resources -Links
      – Blender Toolbar – No need to dive in sea of bookmarks for beginners

      5. Final thoughts

      6.Happy Blending Message….

      7. Jumped in to Blender
      – 3d Modeling demo (Basic)
      – Animation demo(Basic)
      – Game engine demo(Basic)
      – Fluid demo (Basic)
      – Scripting intro (Python + BLENDER API)

      8. Regression Files demo
      – graphics demo (selected .blend)
      -physics demo (selected .blend)

      9. Satisfied queries of future blender heads in between the demo

      10. Project peach and Apricot – screen shots
      (i said hair and portion in blender is weak but the screen shots had lot of nice fur…i said they had improved a lot now…blender movies act as feedback for blender developers too)…Told them it was in house production tool…if u want you can check the history

      11. That’s all folks

      one guy asked next time come with python… that is Blending into python :)

      Ok here is you tube link – you tube playlist

    2. Gaurav, Great job! Thanks for posting all the videos and photos too. I like the outline of your presentation. Whenever I have given demos time has always been a big considerartion. Blender has so much it is hard to show it all. Once I was given only 15 minutes and another time 2 hours. (I liked the 2 hours much more.)
