Blender 🔶Flow –the animated sensation of the year– was created in Blender! Francesco had a chat with director Gints Zilbalodis to discuss his experience working on the film. The interview covers topics such as learning Blender, working with a team (actually multiple small teams), using add-ons, and single-handedly lighting and rendering the film.

I hope for all of us a more queer & humane future. Keep building communities & dreaming better paths.
