🎬 5 Years in the Making - New Blender Short Film from SouthernShotty​
|
Zach here, Tomorrow, our friend SouthernShotty is premiering his new short film named "Watermelon Girl", created in Blender. I had the chance to watch the short-film upfront and can say it's quite delightful. I especially enjoyed the unique art style making everything look and feel as if it was handcrafted out of materials like wood, cardboard, strings etc. Fun fact(s): All the 200+ visuals of the short are created by only one person, on one computer, crafted in Blender. It took him 5 years to complete it. The short film premiers tomorrow, March 28th, at 3pm CET. Click the link below, there you can enable the reminder to get a notification, shortly before it premieres. ​Click here for the YouTube Premiere Link​ Here is how SouthernShotty summarizes the story: "The short tells the story of a girl born from a watermelon seed in a departed king's stomach. A stunning journey in the Watermelon Kingdom begins, with an art style inspired by hand-made arts and crafts. A quest to find a new home unfolds into a heartwarming tale, where Watermelon Girl discovers the true joy of giving and building community through helping those in need." Btw. SouthernShotty runs a little contest to find a hidden character in the short film, to win his Blender Market products (affiliate link) for free. Here is a short video explaining the contest. Excited to watch it again with you and everyone tomorrow. 🤩 ~Zach |
