I have a LONG history with Blender - I wrote some of the earliest Blender tutorials, worked for Not a Number and helped run the crowdfunding campaign that open sourced Blender (the first one on the internet!). I founded BlenderNation in 2006 and have been editing it every single day since then ;-) I also run the Blender Artists forum and I'm Head of Community at Sketchfab.

Given the recent Sintel IP kerfuffle, and the reputation of the House of the Mouse, I imagine this will be taken down momentarily.
Too bad, it looks pretty good!
haha it's online since few months so I guess the Mouse does not mind ;)
Speaking of the Sintel kerfuffle, the whole reason for that error was that Sony televisions were shown displaying the Sintel movie on their hi-def screens in a Sony advertisement. The automated tool at YouTube compared the screenshots of the Sintel movie and Sony's advertisement for their televisions, saw the identical frames, and immediately reached the conclusion that some theft had taken place.
For this reason, I recommend we find some way to deny Sony the right to any further use of our open-source movies in their advertisements, as a matter of protecting the creative commons from corporate misuse.
Do you have a source for that info?
Even if that is true, weren't they the ones who provided the cameras for "Tears of Steel"?, or were those donated by a third party/purchased outright?
I mean, it's terrible it happened, and it shows the problems with the whole law, but I don't know if we would want to punish someone who has given to the community over an honest mistake.
Also, isn't what you're asking incompatible with the license?
If what you say did happen, then Google needs to revise their tools. Possibly timestamp entries on upload and give precedence to older entries over newer works. When they get a hand-crafted takedown, that can be verified by human effort, they can postdate the signature of the overriding entry to the copyright date.
This week's podcast, I assume you listen to them?
He doesn't cite anything. I'd have to classify this as a repeated rumor. That said, it's still a viable theory.
If you were working with Cycles, did you use the bake-cycles branch to bake the final textures?
