Sintel's cool The Blender dudes are working on their 5th movie now - Gooseberry

[neomonkeus]

They are only making a pilot as they failed to reach their goal. 

They wanted to do a full scale production which would have been with 12 studios around the world.

The funding model was with the new Blender Cloud which is like a subscription service to training material from the Blender Institute and much more. 

 

Its a pity, but they will probably try again next year when the cloud is better established.

I`ve seen this listed on Blender`s site for awhile now but never got around to watching it. This is very awesome. Thanks bro.

After the last time it got opened here and ran away in a panic, I don't think I'll have to worry about Blender coming near my computer again anytime this lifetime

If people want to play with the the Dev version of the Blender nif plugins a build can be made available.

 

@Donnato - I'll see if I can find the video from the Blender Conference this year.

Ton, Blender Foundation chair was hooked into an occulus rift & kinect running on the Blender's game engine with BBB rigged in.
