Big Buck Bunny is a short animated film by the Blender Institute, part of the Blender Foundation. Created entirely using free software, it is also released under the Creative Commons Attribution License. You can download all the models, textures, animations, everything.
“This Open movie project had as main targets:
- Developing tools in Blender for editing and rendering hair, fur or grass
- Improve character animation tools for cartoonish motion and deformation
- Test Blender with giant outdoor environments, with large grassy fields and many trees with leaves
- Further validate Blender as a professional animation creation suite
And secondary:
- Create a great and good looking animation short, licensed freely as open content
- Provide content for other artists to learn from or to re-use, including documentation and tutorials
And of course: Have lots of fun!”
Watch the film online, or buy the dvd containing everything to support the project.
