Blender Conference 2017 was a great success! If you did not have a chance to see it or if you missed some of the talks, check them out on the YouTube playlist.
One of the highlights of Blender Conference is the Suzanne Awards film festival, which celebrates and rewards Blender filmmakers in 3 categories: Character Animation, Design and Short Film. Traditionally, the Blender Institute team is in charge of producing some fun and informative interstitial animations to be displayed between each film screening.
This year Julien Kaspar led the project, pushing the ~~pun~~ concept of "Bee conf" beyond the limits. The original .blend files are now available on Blender Cloud as part of the ever-growing Art Gallery.
