Blender is a renown open source software in the Animation Industry. It's a digital content creation tool that gained a lot of traction during the past years. Recently, many big companies joined the funding of the foundation behind it. Which means that they will keep improving their software and growing their audience.
On a regular basis, the Blender studio produces movies to show the capabilities of Blender. These productions are awaited by many animation fans. It grabs a lot of attention. The next one, Sprite Fright, creates a lot of expectation.
During the past months we had the opportunity to talk a lot with their team. They helped us to improve Kitsu by providing feedback and funding features. We adapt Kitsu to fit with their pipeline. Which led to something big for us: they decided to use Kitsu to collaborate better with their artists for the Sprite Fright production!
To us, it's a great recognition both as an animation tool and as a FOSS software. It created a lot of excitement into our community and boosted our motivation!
Even better, we'll keep on working with them. We will have probably more news about it! Stay tuned!
