We finished rendering another Blender animation short, just in time for submitance to this year’s Suzanne Awards. The Butterfly Effect was part of our RenderStreet for Artists Program, that provided independent artists with free rendering, on our servers.
Creator of the movie, Patrice Bertrand explains the coming of the story, as well as the technical lessons he learned from this exercise.
12 minutes animation Whole, sponsored from our RenderStreet for Artists Program, had its official release in Copenhagen. William Reynish directed Whole as his bachelor film project for The National Film School of Denmark. He applied for rendering with RenderStreet in November, and now the movie is hitting major festivals internationally.
In 2013 we had over 10.000 Blender projects that ran through our farm. They are all private work and most of them were never exposed publicly. But some are out there, on the world wide web. Here is a collection of some cool 3D images rendered with RenderStreet, publicly released by our clients.
The beautiful image Morning at the farmhouse made by Richard Hoatland. Rendered with Cycles, 1500 samples. Took about 1,25 hrs to complete with RenderStreet.
Welcome to 2014!
At RenderStreet we are constantly looking into our performance indicators, as they allow us to monitor our service’s health and performance. And because you are at the center of all our efforts, we wanted to share with you a few of those indicators.
Here are some stats for Blender renders on our farm:
A BMW retailer in Switzerland is promoting the new X5 with a TV spot created entirely with Blender. As it usually happens in advertising, short deadlines demand fast production. This is how RenderStreet was entrusted with rendering a significant part of the animation.
Besides running a serious business, we love watching well animated cartoons. And when Blender Institute released the first episode of Caminandes, we knew we wanted to back them up.
We allocated 50 some pro-bono servers and we gave Pablo Vazquez and his team our full support for rendering the next llama adventures. For the last month, our servers have been busy with Cycle rendering Caminandes Grand Dillama scenes. Amazingly, one day after the upload, it got over 20k views on YouTube:
I am happy to announce that BlenderGuru’s new course intro materials have been rendered on RenderStreet. It was my pleasure to welcome Andrew among our customers and see the awesome renders he created for his course.
Below are a couple of images reproduced with permission from Architecture Academy’s website. More pictures here, check it out for more goodies rendered on RenderStreet.
The Architecture Academy registration will be open until 17th July 4PM GMT, so hurry up and grab your seat.
