11:41p	Making a Film by using Blender (animationsupplement.com) Animationsupplement.com has an interview with Ajit Nair who is leading a team making the 100-minute animation feature Naughty 5 using the Blender open source 3D content creation suite. The film is about five naughty children and is expected to be released by mid-2013. "Students should focus on enhancing their creativity and art rather than understanding software functions. What you want to achieve is primary and how you achieve it is secondary. For people planning to make a film should definitely give Blender a try, there will be some time spent training but it will definitely be worth it." (Thanks to Paul Wise.) (Comment on this)
