Have you ever watched a Pixar film and wished you could have a go at making CG animations? Do you aspire to becoming a video game developer, but you lack the resources to gain any experience? Blender might be just what you need. It is a 3D computer graphics program which is free and open-source. All you need is a reasonably fast computer and internet connection. This software is capable of building 3D models, rendering artwork, making animations, running user-created video games and simulations, and more. A diligent user's creations are only limited by imagination, and, in some cases, computing power. In commercial applications Blender has been used to make advertisements, short films, and was even used by the storyboard department of Spider-Man 2. The experience acquired from using this program can be invaluable if you are pursuing a career in the film/animation or video game industries. Learning to use Blender takes some time, but there is a lot of support via the Blender community. Users who are highly skilled often create tutorials to share their knowledge. Not only is the software free, but getting educated in how to use it is free, too. Below is a screenshot of Blender followed by a few short films.
