I am sorry for not donating due to my finical situation. Once I am doing better, I will donate some money to Blender. I use it daily and I love it. thank you for keeping it free

[@PabloVazquez]

You don't have to, that's the beauty of open source. Those who can afford to donate will do 🧡 Being part of the community, helping other Blender users, leaving this positive comment, that's already a huge contribution. Thank you!

[@huhuhuh525]

@@PabloVazquez I honestly feel awful that I can't contribute just yet. I guess that justs goes to show how good blender is.

[@screenkiduniya3717]

​@@huhuhuh525 same I wanna donate too once I have had money

[@davidnwankwere4866]

To be honest, I am 14 and I satartrd using blender since when I was 9. This software has been through my thick in thin ❤

[@nosirve9458]

It's so cool to watch the behind scenes of how an open source foundation works. Also, the video is great. 10/10

[@ronnetgrazer362]

Right?!

[@andre-cd2un]

true

[@NKCGArtist]

watching these videos make me feel emotional. its like i am there with you guys. it also makes feel envy that i cant be there with you. Keep up the good work . (been there with you since 2.46a)

[@linolafettatnet]

Very emotional episode, thank you Anja for your hard work over the years sorting out all our troubles while ordering tickets from the foundation! Congratulations Francesco!

[@ebnevaght]

Everytime I watch one of these episodes, I get into tears, this is a place I love to work and I'll work hard to get there ♥

[@Alessiucciocaro]

I've never been so enamored with a group of people this much. I mean, just look at each one of them. Every person involved in this has something unique, it's not just passion for what they do, it's something more. It's in their eyes. Blender is a gift to mankind. From the heart of it's brighest kind.

[@Migueljuegos]

A very emotional chapter, Anja is a very important part of Blender, she was part of it even before it became opensource. It's curious to see how much the Blender Institute/Studio has changed over the years. At the beginning the Blender Institute seemed (at least it seemed to me) a place where a group of friends got together to do cool stuff and have a good time, that carefree atmosphere attracted me a lot and I wished someday I could work in a place like that. Now things have become more serious, Blender is bigger, and the studio looks like a proper company, but I think it hasn't lost its essence at all, it's still a place where I would love to work.😁 ...although it will probably never happen xD

[@antoonsorg]

Congratulazioni Francesco! Erg bedankt voor de goede zorgen met de winkel Anja geniet van je naderende Pensioen. Dankjulliewel.

[@solb7897]

Each episode is a shot of sweetness, congrats for new transformations!

[@BloxBuilder100]

I like blender

[@peterlemon1385]

Happy 10 years work anniversary Pablo, & a well earned trophy! I hope you become a board member too, as you are pretty wise to all things Blender, & would provide great input going forwards =D

[@Gonnetz]

I think open source will be always better in the long term, because the comunity helps with amazing ideas and is fully behind the changes. Thats why Blender will stay and grow out other softwares, which are just for the industry

[@InLightVFX]

Great work, Maaike! I don't think most people appreciate the amount of time and talent that it takes to produce great documentary work like this. Keep up the awesome work!

[@PabloVazquez]

Indeed, she's amazing. Blender is so lucky to have such a talented filmmaker documenting the everydays of such a project.

[@LeonCuttem]

No better community than the blender community. So awesome meeting Ton in Los Angeles at BConLA! Monumental memories.

[@solraccjd2]

FELICITACIONES PABLO!!!! desde Argentina te mando un saludo enorme, hace añares que te sigo en Blender, una maravilla.

[@PabloVazquez]

¡Gracias por el aguante! Acá tratando de representar positivamente. Donde mires siempre hay un argentino metido en todos lados. 🇦🇷🧡

[@alguti8592]

another lovely vignette, thank you for letting us into the lives of blender heads! you guys are open source comrades

[@invitacionesdigitalesg3]

What a privilege to work for Blender!!! Congratulations to the team, Greetings from Argentina

[@leifdux7277]

Hello after me coming from Maya vray mud box and the transferring over to blender it is such a fantastic tool I love it because it doesn't crash every 5 minutes despite having my scene clean and deleting my history.

[@zbop220]

This is amazing to see. Thank you Ton for being our benevolent blender dictator. You've been a strong and steady captain. Welcome Francesco and crew! I have to point out to, this is a real masterclass in the smooth transfer of power and succession. Seriously this should be studied, because so many leaders through history have got this wrong. Ton, knowing he, could not do this forever started entrusting Francesco with more and more responsibilities for training. Then took time to explain and codify his vision of what Blender was and what blender meant so Francesco could have the best chance of keeping the course and so the crew and the community could help. Then a board of advisors was formed and finally power handed over. Simply amazing.

[@P9_STUDIO]

Blender saved my life ❤Thank u all!❤

[@eddyjuillerat835]

It seems that the working mood is great. You make jealous everywhere! Congrats to all the team.

14:23 Is Pablo small, or is Ton a giant ? 😮

Ton is 1.95 metres, like me :) So he's normal sized :D

[@PabloVazquez]

In Argentina I'm average-ish I'd say, in The Netherlands though... not so much. It's literally the tallest country in the world, with an average for men of 183cm (6 feet).

[@Cyber_Kriss]

@@PabloVazquez Hi Pablo ! No worries, it is just that contrast between the two of you... Ton looks like a giant (he would probably too compared to me ahaha !)
