For the entirety of last week, I was in Raleigh, North Carolina, teaching Digital Animation in Blender at Red Hat High for the second year in a row. Jonathan Williamson (mr_bomb in the Blender community) also returned to teach this year and we added a pair of award-winning Blender animators to our teaching roster: […]
