Blender

For those of you who don't know, blender is a free, open-source graphics, animation, and modeling program. It is one of the most powerful such programs available. At any rate, a few from blender's very supportive community have made a few short films in blender, with the aim to prove blender as a competent tool in the world of animation. The first was Elephants Dream, a very good-looking, yet highly confusing film. The second, Big Buck Bunny, which takes on a more friendly, humorous theme, was just released for download today. They are both very well made, and absolutely free, so this time, you don't have to feel bad for downloading them. Get them while they're hot (in other words anytime), at:

Elephants Dream
Big Buck Bunny

Hope you enjoy!
