Hi everybody! The short we are working on is almost finished. We have to complete some animations, and refine lighting in few shots. In these days, we will start rendering. I (Gherardo) am actually working on an original music for ending titles and I’m also collecting audio files for the sound design. I hope we [...]

The “Eleven o’clock” project is going on well. We spent much time to organize some files (as we said in the preview posts the organization of files is fundamental!!) but now it’s time to render! Mattia still working on animation. He had completed the 9th shot. All the shots are 22 so he still has [...]

The scene takes place in an ancient attic, full of scrapheap and dust. In this setting a heroic robot will help a cuckoo bird to realize his dream: to be free. In this picture, realized by Davide, you can see how the attic looks like and you can feel the mood of the story.

This is the way we decide to organize our work during the weeks. We don’t know if it is the best plan for this kind of project, but it’s an attempt, so the next time we’ll be able to manage the planification of the work in a better way. The whole project takes 12 weeks [...]

Here we are, with a preview of the new Trickle Project. There are just the first 15 seconds …who knows what will happen later?? We are thinking also to make some Blender videotutorial (but only in Italian language).   …So if you are curious stay tuned, there are a lot of news about this project!!

A new Trickle Project has started!! The aim is to complete a 30 / 45 second short story using only Blender. We hope to finish all the work in 3 months. The theme will be “Something Mechanical“. Let’s start by introducing the team…
