Sintel, the Durian Open Movie Project
on October 7th, 2010, by Ton
Although Sintel has been released, we will still continue to work on re-rendering the film in 4k format (3840 pixels wide, for digital projection or screens). This is being sponsored by the Amsterdam Cinegrid consortium , and will be available (tentatively) end of 2010.
Blender Institute intends to produce this with the highest quality possible, which means that all shots in the film will be carefully (re)designed by an experienced stereographer assisted by experienced Blender artists. We also want to spend considerable time on optimizing and implementing an efficient stereographic editing workflow in Blender (camera tools, integrated render, compositing).
You can e-mail Ton Roosendaal to get further information about this sponsoring opportunity.

Our short animation film now has been published online for everyone to watch and spread! It’s been an exciting moment for our team, and for everyone who as eagerly awaited this moment. We hope you enjoy it!
Next on our todo is wrapping up the 4-dvd box release, NTSC/PAL discs with extras and documentary, and 2 DVD-ROMs with tutorials, and all the data to reproduce the fim entirely.

Do you recall Sintel’s line “Hey.. we are almost done.. shh.. sit still! ” from the sneak peek video we posted long ago?
We’re working to get this out as soon as possible.
Join the waiting and after party with the Durian crew!
We’ll be at #blenderdurian on IRC (FreeNode).You can also join the party via: http://graphicall.org/sintel/
Thank you all community, you’re awesome. Let’s raise the hype!

Hi all,
Just got a note that the 450 seats for the premiere all have been sold or reserved. I don’t know if you can get on a waiting list there… best is to contact the festival itself then. Alternative is to attend the thursday evening screening.
