Big Buck Bunny Premiere

Posted on by

Last night I went to the premiere of Big Buck Bunny in Amsterdam and it was a blast! The movie was amazing, the audience loved it (they even laughed – imagine THAT! ;-), the Peach team looked extremely happy and the party was great. I decided to have fun and talk to everyone instead of doing interviews etc, so all I can offer is an impression of the evening. Oh, and I didn’t tape the movie – you’ll have to wait just a little longer for that!

      Someone needs to tell them you are supposed to start the drinking FIRST, then give the speeches;)

      Congrats on the release to the Blender Foundation.

      @Mataii: create an account on Vimeo.com and you can download the original Quicktime movie (which is big – over 300MB). I don’t have time to create file formats for everybody..

      Congratulations! Its great!

    • John Doe

      All the credits are the people who bought the DVD. Only five artists actually made the film.

    • http://www.blendernation.com Bart

      @John Doe (interesting IP address ;-): I’d count six (if you include the composer), or eight (if you include technical support)? Interesting how Jan Morgenstern is missing from the Team page on the Peach blog by the way! I hadn’t noticed that until now…

      WHOOOHOOO! xD

      “I’d count six (if you include the composer), or eight (if you include technical support)? Interesting how Jan Morgenstern is missing from the Team page on the Peach blog by the way! I hadn’t noticed that until now…”

      And of course, I am sure they forgot to put the actors in the credit.

      What about the bunny? And the squirrels? And the chinich… chinchichi… round fat furry rodent?
      Did they mention that no nuts were hurt during the making of the movie? Eh?

      At least the movie is out soon, and so should be the Official Peach Blender build. :)

      @Bart:

      Heh I know it wasn’t intentional, but I can speak from theater and say often sound is an afterthought sadly, despite it adding so much to a piece.
