The Blender Foundation has released over 4 terabytes of Ultra-HD footage from Tears of Steel under a CC-BY license. Their previous movies have all become standard demo material for HD equipment, and I’m convinced you will see this footage everywhere in the Ultra-HD market this year.
The Blender Institute has secured funding for a re-render of Tears of Steel in 4K. This means an ‘Ultra-HD’ version will become available as well. I guess that’s good news for people who spend a fortune on one of these new tv’s – at least now they have something to watch! ;-)

The Dutch Newspaper ‘Het Parool’ features a two-page interview with Ton Roosendaal about Tears of Steel. Dutch Blenderheads in the Amsterdam region may be able to grab a copy today or tomorrow! You can also access the full article by zooming in on the scan that’s available on the Tears of Steel blog - it’s well worth the read.
Tears of Steel will officially be launched on the internet next wednesday! But that’s not all – ASIFA-Hollywood, the prestigious society of animation studios, has organised a special screening event on september the 28th.
