When the first time I met with Blender I was amazed. It is a tiny little open source 3d content creation suite. Relative to its size, its power of creating 3d animation is unbelievable. The windows installer is just about 8MB. You can run this software even very low power computer. But you can't believe what type of animation you can create using it. Watch the following short film Elephants Dream created using blender:
The most exciting thing about the blender is - 3d movies created using this software is called "Open Movie". That means you can use all production files from the creators. Here is what the Elephants Dream website says:
Elephants Dream is the world’s first open movie, made entirely with open source graphics software such as Blender, and with all production files freely available to use however you please, under a Creative Commons license.
The short film was created by the Orange Open Movie Project studio in Amsterdam during 2005/2006, bringing together a diverse team of artists and developers from all over the world. More about the project...
There is another open movie Peach coming in this April. You can pre-order the DVD from here. I am very much excited to view this movie.

I have seen the elephants dream .. it is a cartoon but it surely is not for kids. The movie is so full of violent scenes.
I'll check out the Peach :)
OMG this is astonishing! can't believe it's really created with just Blender.
