Photos from Blender Advanced Course and Winter Camp

March 4th, 2009 by andy

Last week I had the chance to give another advanced course at the Blender Institute in Amsterdam.

After the course I stayed a couple of days to hang around with the developers who met for the blender winter camp. I took some photos, here are some of them.

Advanced Course:

    Reyn: heh. calling me a photo enthusiast would be a bit exaggerated. but sometimes i like pointing cameras (still, video and film) at things… this particular one is a canon eos 750d.

    Great pictures; the thing that really made me feel nostalgic was the hagelslag!
    Just kidding, of course, I’m really missing Entrepotdok. Ciao.

    I’ve got high hopes for the new interface, but then again, you all have high standards, so I’m not that worried :D

  13. Pablo Vazquez Says:

    sheesh it certainly is a magic place, watching pictures from whole entrepotdok-thai and the BI-stfucorner-lunch table makes me feel nostalgia..

    Great pictures as well!
    mmh makes me want to have a real camera sometime soon..

    Hey Andy, how do you merge 2 points in your DVD, I can’t hear how you pronounce it :S

  15. andy Says:

    it might be either alt+m or AutoMerge with point snapping enabled?

  16. Owen Says:

    No it dosen’t works :S
    By the way, thank you for the reply
