@@eel900 Audio MAKES the movie. Without good sound and music to underscore the movement and emotional impact of the visuals in your film, you might as well pack it up and go home.
I see so many people talking about the animation, but no one is talking about the story, I mean, it's so heart warming and also leaves loads of room for your own imagination.
sadly no one talks about stories. they only see art. but art tells a story. just because it doesn't speak. doesn't mean it's not telling a story. you know?
I respect blender so much. Its an amazing software and its 100% free while adobe products are so expensive i as a student in a poor country cannot afford it. Blender makes so many dreams possible, bless people who decided to not focus on profits but on the users. We love you!
To think this was made in Blender 2.8, before Geometry Nodes, blows my mind. This short film really is a work of art. But imagine what you could do in later versions. This is simply amazing.

@@KnotPhound F2, TS4 or HTTYD3 may look more realistic, but Spring has this artistic visual quality and feel that is probably impossible to reproduce in a fully professional environment.
For all of you who are learning how to make a donut just like me, know that some of the people who know how to make these wonderful animations are reading these comments and thinking "I was one of them learning how to make a donut..." So don't give up , I hope someday to see one of your animations on youtube as well!

I salute Blender Team for providing the software for free.. It helps to make a career for economically poor youth and I'm one of them too.. I'll return as much as possible money to the blender community to improve in future.. Thanks blender ❤
I used to criticize when I was a kid over like... Why the animation is bad or why it's not like this or that... But after learning about what goes into the animation and production...

Something that always stands out about films like this is that. This was created by more than one person. Remember you don't have to do it alone. Reach out to other creators. Make a team, Share your ideas and follow your passion.

When she blows warm air into her hands and rubs them together to grip her staff better was stunningly fluid. I see no reason why this couldn't be on level with any major Motion Picture release.
Yeah, I loved that part too! Character detail in animation is SOO important when it comes to making them have a personality! And did you notice how, after re-adjusting her grip, she looks down to make sure she got it right? BRILLIANT! More than I've seen in major movies released in theaters, by giants like Disney.
WOW, excellent creation. My heart goes for makers of Blender who thought beyond profits, companies,compitition etc and made the software free to every dreamer /designer , giving him power to put life into his dreams and share to the real world. ❤💖❤💖
took me nearly a year to realize those tree spirit thingy with smoke around them are actually sheep like animal base on the fact that she is a shepherd
It's much better for me, look at the beginning where the texture of the ground and stone around. It's so breathtaking on how much work could have been done there.
Actually the film started in 2.79! It was finished in 2.80 which was one of the most challenging aspects of the production, but it was required to make sure 2.80 was production ready and most bugs sorted out. 🫡
I think SOME of them artists have the possibility of using blender in some parts of the pipeline, probaly just modeling with subD workflow and unwrapping, after that they probaly export to maya or houdini
Do they ever do a "making of..." video of these productions? I would be interested in the whole process, especially the synchronization of animation to audio.
They did make some behind the scenes for Spring. Look up, "Spring - Blender Open Movie Showreel" It doesn't show everything like audio. But it does show the character design, modeling, animation and lighting. There's also a video that's an hour long called, "Spring open movie - Production Report" It has some of the creators talk more about their progress.
This is a very popular comment, but I don't understand what you mean. Do you think Blender is inefficient to use? Is Cycles rendering inefficient with resources? How can efficiency be improved?
@@SvenBrettschneider I mean, like, we can delete stuff in Blender, but it's two steps, x and the choose from the menu, when x could just delete it straight away and shift+x could be for the menu or something. So like that, we need a faster workflow, especially for rigging, sculpting, hair grooming, texturing, and even grease pencil sometimes has a lot of extra steps. Like colors in grease pencil are materials, which is nice, because tweaking the material will also tweak the strokes done with it. but setting up a material is time-consuming, while in Krita or something we just choose a color from the palette and draw. We need both. material and color picker workflow.
thanks for your explanation @@artstallion6029! Yes you're right. There still are lots of improvements that can be made. I personally still have to try out Blender 2.8, so I don't completely know how much is fixed now. Got used to most of the quirks you mentioned, but of course that doesn't mean everything is working perfectly.
In windows or linux just press "Canc" instead of "x". You can even go in Preferences->Keymap and remove "Confirm" option to the command. Jeje we got efficiency too ;) @@artstallion6029
With the ending, that means the shepherd girl does it every year for spring to happen. With that many appendages suspended, she's probably immortal-- or it's been a family tradition to continue the circle of life.

*Music: Torin Borrowdale* *Sound: Sander Houtman* As visually stunning this is, as full of heart and sweetness and the drama hiding in everything...SHOUT out for the audio.
I want this to be a movie. There are so many unanswered questions! This girl has clearly done this before but there are hundreds of those old quills. Was she an apprentice and her master died? What happened to her family? What are these winter creatures?
I think she's supposed to be the anthropomorphized season of spring. The creatures are the embodiment of winter. Presumably there's some summer fairy that's going to lull her to sleep with hot weather, and an autumn goblin that will sneak out of some hole and shake all the leaves down before he gets frozen by the winter creatures.
I was going to call the creatures the T-Giants. T as in Tentacle-y, Tarantula-like, Tree creatures! (There may be many other T-words that may be used to describe these creatures as well. These were a few off-the-top of my head.) Such a wonderful animation!
I was watching this in my maths class as I had finished my work. My teacher was watching this from behind and she stopped me at 6:00 to say how beautiful the animation was. This legit happened, no joke. Keep proceeding with your godly work!
This is a masterpiece of animation! The creativity and skill involved are truly impressive. The storyline is compelling, and the animation quality is top-notch. Kudos to the entire team!
AWESOME! Amazing job!! An open source able to shake the industry standards, for free! The more time passes, the faster it improves! Blender is more than a software!
This is Pixar level stuff here. This is absolutely stunning! And I know that the point of it isn't to show off music skills or anything, but the score is hauntingly beautiful! Wow! Such beautiful music!
@@diadokhoi5722 Oh yes. I know. I'm a long time Blender fan, for a bunch of years by now. I love Blender and the developers are doing an absolutely amazing job!
PixR every one is dead now blender reign over. The industry I know it I'm from future now Maya has corrupt and decayed in time houdini is extremely extinct and the last light is blender which cannot be extinguished
I mean it was probably sculpted not modeled. You can’t have such high details with just modeling. That’s why you usually don’t model characters at least completely. There’s always some amount of sculpting involved unless it’s a low poly character. Like you said how many extrusions can one have in a goddamn leg
I think is sculpting instead of using extruede, for that amount of details sculping will be much easier. Also, it will create better performance via scuplting then using the edit mode.
Once you decide to learn, you'll start learning. I used to be very intimidated by Blender, but just one day decided to learn. A few months later, I was making some rather nice art. Still have so much more to learn, but that process never stops for anyone. There's tons of great free tutorials right here on TH-cam, but you'll only start to learn once you decide to.
if u look deep down blender you'll find it's weak for production and it's just happened by people working professionally, so more years waiting before even reaching commercial software level :)
@@xox8717 True, blender has a lot of great features, and has been improved upon a lot. But it is not as streamlined and specialized as commercial software.
This film really shows how majestic,beautiful, realistic, and creative you can be. The idea of this film having majestic creatures following a stone that’s given to her to control the creatures and that takes place in this fantasy like world is amazing. This really shows how creative people can be.

@@JTS-Games Linux doesn't work like that. You use system repositories for installation and program updates. You have everything in one place without jumping to different websites for each installed program when the updates come out.
@@wiktorwektor123 You absolutely can download blender for linux distros on their website, and if you aren't on arch its actually the best way in my opinion because its much more up to date than what is in the repos. I don't count ubuntu being up to date because it uses snaps.
@@Goalatio I'm on Manjaro which is Arch based because I don't see any logical reason to have to package managers on Linux distro. Debian based has apt, Arch based has pacman, Fedora has dnf, OpenSUSE has zypper why Flatpak, AppImage or some other crap is needed for FOSS software? For proprietary I understand. Most applications installed by this 3rd party package distribution system cannot integrate with system visual theme. This is why I will never use them for FOSS software which blender is and yes Manjaro has Blender 2.90.1 in official repository just like many other apps updated, which wasn't problem before on other distros, but some people are lazy and I won't be supporting laziness.
Paweł S It does have 2.9, but that wasn’t always the case. It took them a few weeks to catch up and the website version worked fine until then. I use manjaro xfce as well.
Mmmm my body is ready. Watched it, loved everything but the volumetrics are especially something that resonated with me. What an awesome way to push the opensource graphics world further!
@@lucanagato_kogen the smoke simulation was a little bit below everything else, but the environmental volumetrics, like sunrays through trees and the homogeneous mist in the forest was beautifully done
@@CephalonBread its easy :). Create a new scene then: Pess Shift+A then select the monkey from Meshes to add it to the scene. Select Suzzane then press space or F3(2.8), choose Quick Smoke. Look at the properties menu, switch to Flow, then find the drop down that says "Fire," then change it to Fire + Smoke. Press play(space(2.8) or shift +a), there you go :D

When she blows warm air into her hands and rubs them together to grip her staff better was stunningly fluid. I see no reason why this couldn't be on level with any major Motion Picture release.
Same here
Lack of resources. But i think this story just fits best as a beautiful short.
Yeah, I loved that part too! Character detail in animation is SOO important when it comes to making them have a personality! And did you notice how, after re-adjusting her grip, she looks down to make sure she got it right? BRILLIANT! More than I've seen in major movies released in theaters, by giants like Disney.
wow man
@@jascrandom9855 can you elaborate on what you mean by lack of resources?
WOW, excellent creation.
My heart goes for makers of Blender who thought beyond profits, companies,compitition etc and made the software free to every dreamer /designer , giving him power to put life into his dreams and share to the real world. ❤💖❤💖

took me nearly a year to realize those tree spirit thingy with smoke around them are actually sheep like animal base on the fact that she is a shepherd

Never heard of sheep trying to stomp their shepherd before

@@blenderbachcgi exactly
It's much better for me, look at the beginning where the texture of the ground and stone around. It's so breathtaking on how much work could have been done there.
The sound design is just splendid, and it makes the animation wayyy wayyyyy better and immersive.

The fact that this was achieved with the 2.8 model is so insane
Actually the film started in 2.79! It was finished in 2.80 which was one of the most challenging aspects of the production, but it was required to make sure 2.80 was production ready and most bugs sorted out. 🫡
@BlenderStudio That still makes it super impressive bravo to everyone who made it possible 👏

wow i did dat too but i forgot the keys n pretty much fked my character up so i had to redo them all over agn

@@john.s I didn't really mean I'd make awesome films by myself. What I meant is getting to be a part of the productions of films such as this.
This was made...in freaking BLENDER??
This is like Pixar-level animation!
I heard that pixar uses blender 😊
wait really?
@@fathirsomantri no but something like it..
I think SOME of them artists have the possibility of using blender in some parts of the pipeline, probaly just modeling with subD workflow and unwrapping, after that they probaly export to maya or houdini
@@henrique-3d Pixar have their own software. With features way more than Maya, Houdini, 3DSMax, Octane Render, and blender combined.
Do they ever do a "making of..." video of these productions? I would be interested in the whole process, especially the synchronization of animation to audio.
ive been asking the same question, i havent found any video of something like that yet. I would love to watch the whole process too!!
They did make some behind the scenes for Spring.
Look up, "Spring - Blender Open Movie Showreel"
It doesn't show everything like audio. But it does show the character design, modeling, animation and lighting.
There's also a video that's an hour long called, "Spring open movie - Production Report"
It has some of the creators talk more about their progress.
Blender now has the capacity. Now what we need is efficiency. Good job Blender devs! You are awesome!
This is a very popular comment, but I don't understand what you mean. Do you think Blender is inefficient to use? Is Cycles rendering inefficient with resources? How can efficiency be improved?
@@SvenBrettschneider I mean, like, we can delete stuff in Blender, but it's two steps, x and the choose from the menu, when x could just delete it straight away and shift+x could be for the menu or something. So like that, we need a faster workflow, especially for rigging, sculpting, hair grooming, texturing, and even grease pencil sometimes has a lot of extra steps. Like colors in grease pencil are materials, which is nice, because tweaking the material will also tweak the strokes done with it. but setting up a material is time-consuming, while in Krita or something we just choose a color from the palette and draw. We need both. material and color picker workflow.
thanks for your explanation @@artstallion6029! Yes you're right. There still are lots of improvements that can be made. I personally still have to try out Blender 2.8, so I don't completely know how much is fixed now. Got used to most of the quirks you mentioned, but of course that doesn't mean everything is working perfectly.
In windows or linux just press "Canc" instead of "x". You can even go in Preferences->Keymap and remove "Confirm" option to the command. Jeje we got efficiency too ;) @@artstallion6029

With the ending, that means the shepherd girl does it every year for spring to happen. With that many appendages suspended, she's probably immortal-- or it's been a family tradition to continue the circle of life.
She **is** spring 🙂
From her reactions I would go with family tradition she seens very impressed
well yea, or maybe she just ages slowly
@@charonstyxferrymanor from the Greek the goddess Flora maybe :)
The tradition way is more likely, coz from her expressions she looked quite unfamiliar of the terrain, its like she done what she was instructed of.
Sometimes the CG looks more attractive than the reality

Ok I keep seeing people talk about the cube and the donut. But where do you find these tutorials? Are they naturally in the program or on youtube?
@@beatriceladouce965 It's on youtube. The cube is a default object in the app and the donut is one of the most popular tutorial.
At his point the doughnut may as well be the "Hello World" for blender, it's the initiation for 3D artists lol.
Hahaha same......
Didn't expect these many ppl like me to come here
On god
from a cube to being this awesome. just loving Blender
I want this to be a movie. There are so many unanswered questions! This girl has clearly done this before but there are hundreds of those old quills. Was she an apprentice and her master died? What happened to her family? What are these winter creatures?
I think she's supposed to be the anthropomorphized season of spring. The creatures are the embodiment of winter. Presumably there's some summer fairy that's going to lull her to sleep with hot weather, and an autumn goblin that will sneak out of some hole and shake all the leaves down before he gets frozen by the winter creatures.
This absolutely deserves to be a full length film. A serious amount of thought went into the world we're seeing.
I was going to call the creatures the T-Giants. T as in Tentacle-y, Tarantula-like, Tree creatures!
(There may be many other T-words that may be used to describe these creatures as well. These were a few off-the-top of my head.)
Such a wonderful animation!
finally, someone asking the important questions :)
@@sumitrtamrakar They look like spiny tree sheep
What's harder than animating is finding a story to tell and how to tell it.

Even harder when you have the plot and halfway into the story you're like tf am I animating 💁

I’d say the people that use Maya and Maya alone.
This is Pixar level stuff here. This is absolutely stunning! And I know that the point of it isn't to show off music skills or anything, but the score is hauntingly beautiful! Wow! Such beautiful music!

Designer: How many extrudes for that legs?
Director: Yes
lmao
I mean it was probably sculpted not modeled. You can’t have such high details with just modeling. That’s why you usually don’t model characters at least completely. There’s always some amount of sculpting involved unless it’s a low poly character. Like you said how many extrusions can one have in a goddamn leg
@@reallyabe then i change the extrudes for dynamesh hahahaha
I think is sculpting instead of using extruede, for that amount of details sculping will be much easier. Also, it will create better performance via scuplting then using the edit mode.
@@user-th8nx4cp7w you mean retopo the scluped boost? and they probably use displacement and normalmaps to fake a great detail

Once you decide to learn, you'll start learning. I used to be very intimidated by Blender, but just one day decided to learn. A few months later, I was making some rather nice art. Still have so much more to learn, but that process never stops for anyone. There's tons of great free tutorials right here on TH-cam, but you'll only start to learn once you decide to.
Well, today there are many good tutorials for a very low prize. If you dont learn blender is because you dont want.

Long live free and open source software!

@@xox8717 True, blender has a lot of great features, and has been improved upon a lot. But it is not as streamlined and specialized as commercial software.

@@BluePyxl what are the specs?
So basically, everything in this film was made with free software readily downloadable from any Linux software manager.
Just on the blender website
@@JTS-Games Linux doesn't work like that. You use system repositories for installation and program updates. You have everything in one place without jumping to different websites for each installed program when the updates come out.
@@wiktorwektor123 You absolutely can download blender for linux distros on their website, and if you aren't on arch its actually the best way in my opinion because its much more up to date than what is in the repos. I don't count ubuntu being up to date because it uses snaps.
@@Goalatio I'm on Manjaro which is Arch based because I don't see any logical reason to have to package managers on Linux distro. Debian based has apt, Arch based has pacman, Fedora has dnf, OpenSUSE has zypper why Flatpak, AppImage or some other crap is needed for FOSS software?
For proprietary I understand.
Most applications installed by this 3rd party package distribution system cannot integrate with system visual theme. This is why I will never use them for FOSS software which blender is and yes Manjaro has Blender 2.90.1 in official repository just like many other apps updated, which wasn't problem before on other distros, but some people are lazy and I won't be supporting laziness.
Paweł S It does have 2.9, but that wasn’t always the case. It took them a few weeks to catch up and the website version worked fine until then. I use manjaro xfce as well.
