Israeli animation studio Pitchi Poy has made the transition to Linux and Blender. Sergey Maiorov interviews them at Libre Graphics World.
Gilad Rosenau of Pitchi Poy writes:
My prime incentive was from an economical point of view. It is hard enough to produce an animation feature film especially with an humble budget.
Later I found a great interest in all the philosophical part of this topic – ideally allowing us as the producers to invest all the major funding into the animation itself and less on software and hardware. Awesome!
Pitchi Poy also releases the trailer of their current project, 'Baldy Heights' in this interview:
