“Fatherhood” – Creating a contest-winning short in six days

“Limitless worlds at the power of my fingertips, it’s a beautiful feeling.”

Today’s interview has Brennan Karem as storyteller. Experienced VFX artist and also a director of both camera and animation work, Brennan tells a very entertaining story about his latest short, “Fatherhood”. It’s a story about effort, determination and also personal achievement. This has been one of my favorite interviews so far, and I’m sure you’ll find it interesting on more than one level.

Marius: You created this short for the “Stay at home” challenge from Film Riot. How did you decide to participate?

Brennan: I’ve been following Film Riot for years. Actually, I found them pretty much when they first started. They frequently hold online film festivals/contests and I’ve always wanted to participate but have never had the chance. Whether it was work or personal life, I just haven’t ever had the time before.

Support for multiple color profiles in Blender

Update 2023-01: The AgX profile is now available as well for rendering your projects.

We have just added support for multiple color profiles in Blender on our farm. If you needed to use a non-default profile for your project, now you can render it on RenderStreet with the same settings.

The profiles supported at this moment, in addition to the default one, are:

  • Filmic (the 3rd party version). Of course, we have support for the built-in Filmic as well
  • ARRI Reference
  • ACES 1.2

The new profiles are available with Blender 2.82a and newer, and can only be accessed in our new render management interface.

Happy rendering!
