      No offense, but I don't quite see how this is a case of their knowing quality software.

      Seems to me that even an novice probably could've animated that simple little character, even in the antiquated Art of Illusion (AoI).

      It's nice to give a little nod of notice, as in "Hey, look, a Blender sighting." Just not sure if this simple project here was worthy of "they know quality software when they see it."

      I'd say, Blender deserves its best praise for better work. This brief animation was child's play, even for ancient 3D packages like AoI, let alone Blender.

      Not to knock the sense of praise here, though. I just aim to defend some of Blender's dignity, in a sense.

      • this animation pays tribute to the old clip of office windows pack Word, is a joke, not to mock blender. The series is humor.
