Releasing a short film online is strange.
You work in isolation for years, then it belongs to the internet in one afternoon.

Anyways, go watch SEN if you have 3min:

📽️ SEN was made entirely solo — modeling, animation, lighting, rendering, compositing...

No studio, no budget. Just time.

Meet Rusty! He's old, decayed and muddy. But behind the rust, there's some wisdom. Will you listen to him?

This right here is a great man. Ton has and always will have my deepest respect and admiration.

Thanks for everything you have done for the 3D community Ton!

With the start of 2026 I will officially step down as chair/CEO and move to a supervisory role. I wish Francesco and the new board members - Sergey, Dalai, Fiona - a lot of wisdom and success. I will enjoy more free time, and look forward playing a humble role in shaping Blender for the next decade.

2025 was the year I finally finished my short film project - so here's a bunch of stills for #artvsartist2025
Of course I didn't make them all in just a year!

I'm trying Gemini for logging my calories, and it's a bit of a bad influence...
Gemini response asking: "Would you like me to add a Monster Energy Ultra Rosa to round out the day?"

The last step in the long process of making SEN. Kinda sentimental, but also very excited for the Premiere!
