Blender's Open Movie Project
MrAndrews writes "I just read on the Blender home page that Ton Roosendaal is going to be creating an open movie project called "Orange", which should kick off development sometime in the fall: "The Blender Foundation and the Netherlands Media Art Institute, Montevideo/Time Based Arts, have agreed on producing a 3D Animated Movie Short, to be created with the Open Source 3D suite Blender and other OS tools such as Yafray, Python, Verse, Gimp, and Cinepaint." Moreover: "... the resulting movie - including all the production files and software - will be published under an open public license." Open source entertainment is another step closer to reality!"

Lets hope it does for movies what Tux Racer has done for video games.
Oh.
Anyone else thinking what I'm thinking?
Ever play that game as a kid where you go around in a circle and you make a sentence by each kid adding one word? It's just like that, only with animation.

This is great news. I always thought those other losers where keeping that talented robot back. Can't wait for the movie to come out.
I bet it has something to do with a penguin!

In a writing class we took, the teacher basically told the whole class to write a story. One person would write a page and then hand it off to the next person. All I remember is that the first person started the story off in some lab at a university, with some professor looking for funding or something, but eventually it morphed into a ninja/kungfu thriller with an ending that involved the professor blowing up her former lover with a rocket launcher.
