ENTERTAINMENT - "Sintel" is a free to download short film (see download options here or watch the YouTube video below) about a young woman who is trying to rescue her friend, a baby dragon named Scales. The video itself is 12.5 minutes long + 2.5 minutes of credits, but its a visually stunning and captivating short animation.Made by The Blender / The Blender Foundation (see their other works: Big Buck Bunny and Elephant's Dream) the short combines some of the highest standards for animation skills, including fast action sequences, fires, landscapes and complex facial features/expressions.
The big difference however is that this isn't a multi-million dollar production, but a small international team of animators who use an open source, free software which allows animators to add their own graphics and improve upon the work of others instead of starting from scratch.
