BAZ MUHAMMAD ROLL NO.04 • A graphical tool which is developed for some marketable profits but it has features like in Maya 4D, 3D Max and end software. • But the difference between these kind of platforms and blender is that it is completely free which is under the control of General public License. • It is used for the creation of rigid bodies like toys for kids some modeling tools animations with some the customized python scripting. BACKGROUND HISTORY • A graphical tool and a game engine which was developed by some friends named ERWIN COUMANS and GINO DEN BERGEN in the year 2000. • The aim was to develop some social and marketable products which have some market value like games and some tools. •The source code of this graphical tool was written in C, C++ and PYTHON. • Before Erwin and gino den it was first introduced by Stephen poplawski in 1922. for a one-time payment of US$100,670 at the time • on September 7, 2002 it was announced that all the collection of source code have been collected so it was announced to make it free services for life time after this decision Source code of Blender was released. •Till now Blender is providing its services free. Suzanne an alternative to Blender • An another graphical too named as SUZANNE is used as alternative to BLENDER. But it was released and was shutdown this project soon after its release in February 2002. Which is considered a day for Suzanne. • The name Suzanne was impressed by Chimpanzee primitive. • Suzanne was more common as compare to blender’s models FILE FORMAT • Blender have a file format of “.blend” which allows from multiple scenes to single file. • can be used as a library to borrow pre-made content • Blender also have feature module for auto capturing snapshots and screen recordings whatever to be done in user interface. • every things worked in blender for example animation, 3D, Graphics and many things can be saved under single file format. Features As other Software need a large amount of memory for installation blender is vice versa to them its need a small amount of memory to be installed. • it also supports a geomatrical shapes like polygon meshes, fast division of modeling and Carving. • Versatility in blender can be added in it by an another Application known as YafRay Which also well known graphical tool But it needed to be purchased an also have the ability of tracing. •Blender is a tool with many other tools can also be connected for additional works like bullet addition to it soft body animation in it some are named below 1:- Keyframed Animation Tool 2:-Armature(Skeletal) 2:-Latticebased deformation • As we have already discussed that source code of blender is done in python so it can also be used for python scripting, in game logics, prototyping and exporting other formats. As like basic Videos and Audios editing functions in it. •Blender have many sub-projects like “game Blender” which have some different features available in it as compare to blender like collision detection and dynamics engine and programed logics which are not presented in blender. •And these sub-projects are not free of cost for these payment is most important. • As compare to other 3D creation and game designing tool blender is listed in first row among those costly tools. User interface • Blender as it is discussed that blender is scripted in C, C++, and Python a very tough scripting so it is also really difficult for leaners because it has a very complicated user interaction As compare to other 3D creation media tools. • All the functions in blender mostly have a shortcut key and those keys which are mostly in used in Microsoft products as “MS Office”. • From the day of creation and release it is trying there efforts to make it more effective and useful platform. • Editing modes – It is consist of modes in which the first mode is primary mode which is used for object editing. – while the second mode is edit mode which is used for actual object manipulation. • Workspace management – Blender is completely Graphical user interface which divided into sections. – it can be working multiple windows platform. Support • Currently the Blender is in market available is 2.79 and it was downloaded in month around 2.5 million times. And in near future the latest version of blender will release which 2.80 and is considered a milestone in 3D world. The Hardware requirements of the are not much advanced it can be easily run in any of the i5 series machine. • Most of the users learn Blender from many social media platform where thousands of tutorials are available for learning this tool Use of the tool in Social Industry • The First Large Project was Spider-man 2 in the free version of blender were used. •The Second biggest project was “Friday on Other Day” of which all the social effects were created by the help of blender. Blender is also used for many famous short film in which some of them are discussed bellow. • Elephants Dream/Project Orange – In September 2005, some of the most notable Blender artists And in it second release again blender was preferred to use in 2006. – • Warcraft Warcraft was another biggest project of which many social effects were created in blender. For many other short movies and other famous movies the tool was used and is still using. • Big Buck Bunny • Hammer, Nails and Wood • Charged • Monkaa • The Clode
