BConf 2006: Which Interviews Would You Like to See?
The Blender Conference begins tomorrow and I’ll be there for three days, armed with my videocamera, microphone and laptop. As the organisation has already found enough people to help them record the sessions, I will be free to focus on giving a general impression of the event and on interviewing the attending Blender superstars.
Take a look at the Conference Program and let me know who YOU would like to see on camera and which questions you want me to ask them.
I’m fully confident of that the Blender paparazzi will do their very best and pull intuitively the hottest gals into the spotlight. Think we’ll all be happy about every single recorded minute.
I would like to see some BlenderGirls/Gals interviewed, to see what they have to say.
There were a couple that rather excited me, based on where I currently stand in my development process:
Friday:
Blender Game Engine Workshop, ‘Joy!’
Lighting, Compositing and Shading Workshop
Hey thanks for doing this I will enjoy watching it…
I wish that I could help, editing video or something. But I am too far away.
I want to thank the developers, I have been looking at the CVS, and reading in blenderartist.org I see so much development. Its addicting just waiting to see whats next for blender.
So I have two questions to the developers:
What projects(features) will they test out(no commitment) after this next release?
And how can we as a community help with developing Blender.
An interview with artists that are at the conference. With questions like: What do you expect from the developers next years?
I don’t really have any needs. I’m there on Friday. 130 People. That’s a lot.
If I get in and see many BlenderHeads lying down the stairs, I probarly know what happened when they still were on the stairs.
Bah@!
Sorry only half my post went through…
Lighting, compositing and shading workshop, ‘Joy!’
Saturday:
Rigging for Squash & stretch, flexible deformations and toony animation, ‘YAAAYYY!!’
Scientific uses of Blender, ‘OOooh!’
Mechanical Modelling, ‘yay!’
… yay!
ya I want to here from BIG TON.
I know he gets a bit shy in front of a camera but we don’t hear enough from this fellow.
Corner him somewhere and ask him anything to do with orange2 and also future blender development.
Another person I like you to corner is Anja ever faithful servant to Blender.
People who slave away out of sight to make things happen for us should be given exposure and credit. I think it is nice to know more about her role and something of the person :o)
Ton. nuf said. Ask him about renderman integration. Maybe a few questions about where the new release is headed.
To all: I’m already here, getting ready for tomorrow :) .
One thing I’d like, (I don’t know why!?), would be for you to interview some of the person during the voting of the suzanne awards. People explaining why they choosed which entry instead of another, etc.! Would be really interesting to get feedback on that!
:)
The big red wall behind you. :) (i’m kidding)
GOOOOOOD MOOOOOORNING!!!!!!!
THIS IS THE DAY that the conference starts
cant wait to see the first videos
Cheers everybody
Hi!
huum scientific uses of blender is surely what I would have mainly gone there for. However, all otheres look good! and the presentation concerning nodes is also oon the top of my wishlist!
Thanks guys!
Ciao
Dani
Talk with Andy Goralczyk pls,
ask him about what is he doing with blender right now?
Does he find some new technics with blender futures?
How was the Plamiferos co-operation?
Cheers
How’s about “Creating the Impossible with Blender Nodes with Colin Litster” – haven’t had an opportunity to really get to grips with nodes yet and this sounds really interesting!
Small note: I won’t be recording sessions; the Blender Foundation is already taking care of that. I’ll only be doing interviews, and a general overview of the event.
@ndy if possible ;). Why? Humm… Because he is one of the most known blender artsits and he is one of the best blender artists and he was in Orange project… Anyway catch @ndy if you have the time and motivation ;). Danke danke…
To all, it was sad to know, but someone told me here that Bassam was not allowed to come, according to this anonymous tip it seems that someone at the Airport stopped him from boarding into the plain.
I haven’t seen Bassam yet, so I assume this is true. A great loss here at the Conference I must say :( .
Kudos to my friend Bassam, we are all with you.
BASSAM IS HERE !!!!
Excuse me, I can see that many people will go with their video camera.
It would be very considerate towards non english people make an interview, comment or anything in other languages. Please, some spanish attending person there can be considerate with a poor spanish girl??? Thank you.
Practicing for the next conference:
“Hi barman, two beers, pays my friends!!!”
Next conference … Madrid!! ;)
HI would love a response/interview from Colin Lister if we got some stuff appening for all those who couldn’t make the con it would rock
hey,
you got to, have to, need to, must get an interview with “SAGO”, Sacha Gooberstien, he is nominated for best character animation for “Man in Man”, that dude is hilarious, got to interview him!
peace
super greatest….
I think Sago should be interviewed. Really. There is no excuse not to interview him.
Sago!!!!!!!
Sago. Just because I feel like being a follower, and not a leader right now. 8-P
Sacha Goedegebure aka Sago should be interviewed
sago no doubt.
I would actually really like to see Sago interviewed, not because anybody else says so, but because I think that he’ll be able to deliver an interesting interview, without as many “um”s and “erhm”s as some others might – possibly also a bit of humor thrown in.
Technically, he is also a guy who keeps his methods pretty secret. Making him talk about those behind-the-scenes-things would be out of the ordinary…

I think Sago would be a wise, informative and entertaining choice. he crazy
interview sago!
