Spring here in Liguria is a mix of rainy storms and beautiful sunny spring days. A morning that starts with coffee can only lead to a great day.

Done - my first German-language "Godot Fundamentals" course took place last week. Further advanced courses are already planned.

This marks another milestone in the restructuring of my training offerings towards FOSS:

In addition to "Blender for Production" now also "Indie Game Development with Godot".

I believe indie productions are important for the creative future!

Winter time by the sea - what a wonderful way to start the working day. Rough sea, fresh wind, silence all around you, sun and afterwards, a hot, strong coffee.

Yesterday, some folks on the "butterfly page" started sharing their work environment. I think, that's a nice idea.

So, welcome to my creative spot, sometimes messy, but always cozy 🎨

Have fun!

I have released a new "Blender for Production" tutorial.

Today I talk about ways to bookmark the Blender 3D view, generate cameras from the current view and how to animate camera switches easily.

Feeding the inner nerd in us.
Karin and I took a Saturday trip to Genova and visited the Megacon .

It felt so amazing to dive into the world of Manga, Comics, and Games and also enjoy the art of so many talented indie artists with their small booths.

And, Genova ... the buildings on all the different levels, the harbors, the city itself. WOW, we have to come back soon.

A wonderful 2nd Advent by the sea with a delicious breakfast "La Frutteria". Loano shows off his most beautiful side.

So grateful, it's wonderful!

Let's start the final day of a busy week. A delicious coffee ☕ , a brioche 🥐, a focaccia 🍕 and a relaxing half hour with a view of the sea. Now you can get motivated. A relaxed final spurt to all of you who still have to work (like us). 🏖️

Yesterday we were again in Albenga at Helge's favorite ice cream parlor - "Festival des Glaces". The sundaes here are great.

The ice cream, the ingredients and the lovely atmosphere are just heavenly.

And the best part is that, despite the award-winning ice cream and chocolate, the team immediately exudes friendliness and simplicity when they hand some kids a single scoop of ice cream on a cone.

We look forward to the next time.

The better Game Engine for Realtime Rendering – Blender Eevee?

Some thoughts about using realtime rendering and the role of Game Engines for 3D folks.

This week was quite busy: A total of 3 days of Blender 3D training with two very different customers and the associated workflows.

I'm proud that Blender is being used more and more and that I can play a small part in building this great community.

Winter on the coast alternates between storms, wind and beautiful sunshine. So we try to take our time when the sun lures us outside and enjoy the surroundings.

One highlight are the vegetarian crepes 🥞 on the beach at @spaccafruttavarigotti in Varigotti - so delicious. Our highest recommendation "Hmmmm" 🤩

But now back to work ... 😎

What a wonderful and relaxing start into a new busy working week.
Creativity always needs these calm moments as a balance - otherwise we will drain the flow.
Have a great week 🐳

Holiday week 😎. So a few Sanremo vibes for you. We had some relaxed window shopping hours and enjoyed the beautiful coast on our way back home.

Today the storm is blowing today, the drizzle is coming horizontally and we enjoy the afternoon with the first delicious panetone and coffee.

So a little throwback to the last weekend, when we spent the Sunday afternoon outside in the sun in Laigueglia in the glorious sunshine.

The sea is so different every day... wonderful

I'm so happy that so many creative people are so interested in finding their own path beside the fully commercial-industry one and doing their very own projects within their given budget and possibilities. Our world is becoming more colorful as many people worldwide are finding their own voice and expression, regardless of budget and location.

At this year's View Conference 2022 in Turin, I had the pleasure of holding two workshops on Blender Animation, Rigging, NPR & Grease Pencil.

Additionally, I gave a presentation about "Blender for Indie Studios"., talking about Blender's featureset, environment, organization, funding, and important concepts for small studios.
