Template:Workshop (Little Mrs. Head-Note: You can keep the mistakes and eat them)

Contents

A Blender Workshop?

Yes, a Blender Workshop! Blender is a 3-D Program which is free and very powerful. It provides all of the basic possible actions, like creating and modelling any kind of meshes, texturing and animating! It also has sort of a "Game-Maker" built-in! (Someone wants to create a new kind of WoW?;) ). Blender has even more features than this! It's too much to mention! We can't go through every part of Blender throughout this Workshop, so this Workshop is just kind of a "sneak-peak" before heading for the Bii[...]iig world of 3D-ing!

When?

I wasn't able to fix a date yet, but I think it's going to be on a Sunday in Mid-May or June. I'd also say that it yould be better if we would take a whole day to do this, because it's too much information for half a day.

Where?

If we have by then, we could do it @ our Place ;) Otherwise, I'm sure we could use the Scoutschalet "Bei de Kiewerlecken" at Strassen! There's a big room, tables, chairs and a Beamerholder on the ceiling.

Material?

There are some things you have to bring with you to make the Workshop as comfortable as possible.

What you should have, but not necessary: - Laptop or Desktop Computer (better would be a Laptop ;)) with a working and not TOO old Graphic Card - An external keyboard (for the Laptop Users) // It's more comfortable, I swear!

What we need: (steve, you surely have what I need ;)) - Beamer - Laptops for those who don't have - Some kind of Laserpointer, to point on the screen, to make explanations more visual (not the Lasertagging LaserPointer okay? ;))

Additional Info

- Blender exists for all of the Major OS's (WIN, MAC, LINUX), so there shouldn't be problems (Windows 7 Beta has Problems with performance! So don't use it ;)) - We are going to create some fancy stuff. Maybe we can use some of the things you produce for the syn2cat ;) (You'll see) - This is really going to be a CRASH-COURSE! You're going to be thrown into ice-cold water and you'll get much information in a short time! - If you want to take a glimpse of Blender: http://www.blender3d.org

I'll update soon ;)
