QUIT BLENDER (or die!)

73
By on Mango, Video

The Mango team has completed their first milestone: a five-day workshop in which they created a short film based on a script by Ton.

Ian writes:

BAM! Here we are, the finished kickoff film, only 5 days after starting.

Is it perfect? Nooooooo- we’d tweak this thing forever if we could- but we finished all the big stuff, and made a short film!

Today was a day of last minute tweaks and battling the render farm. At one point we had every computer in the place up and running rendering shots, along with the render farm. I suspect we would have been rendering on folk’s cellphones if we could.

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.

       Congratulations, you have just recomputed your normals.

      What do you mean, you didn’t know you were in Edit mode?

    Looks great, I can definitely see where we are going to need some better fracture tools and whatnot in the pipeline for a true short film though.

     The video obviously shows that Cycles needs shadow pass and Blender really nice demolition simulations. The movie itself is a good exercise and nothing else I guess.

    Heh. I realize I have never, ever, ever, used Blender's official shiny Quit feature. I liked the hunted-by-drones sequence most, especially the final stop-turn. The most distracting technical aspect is the jump in color between the indoors/outdoors shots.
