It is a free and open source 3D animation suite and supports the entirety of the 3D pipeline—modeling, rigging, animation,
simulation, rendering, compositing and motion tracking, even video editing and
game creation.
Advanced users employ Blender’s API for Python scripting to customize the
application and write specialized tools; often these are included in Blender’s
future releases.
Blender is well suited to individuals
and small studios who benefit from its unified pipeline and responsive
development process.
Photorealistic Rendering
Blender now features a powerful new unbiased rendering engine called Cycles
that offers stunning ultra-realistic rendering.
The built-in Cycles rendering engine offers:
- GPU & CPU rendering
- Realtime viewport preview
- HDR lighting support
Fast UV Unwrapping
Easily unwrap your mesh right inside Blender, and use image textures or
paint your own directly onto the model.
Blender allows for:
- Fast Cube, Cylinder, Sphere
and Camera projections
- Conformal and Angle Based
unwrapping (with edge seams and vertex pinning)
- Painting directly onto the
mesh
- Multiple UV layers
- UV layout image exporting
Video Editing
Blender even comes with a built-in Video Editor.
The Video Editor allows you to perform basic actions like video cuts and
splicing, as well as more complex tasks like video masking.
The Video Editor includes:
- Live preview, luma waveform,
chroma vectorscope and histogram displays
- Audio mixing, syncing,
scrubbing and waveform visualization
- Up to 32 slots for adding
video, images, audio, scenes, masks and effects
- Speed control, adjustment
layers, transitions, keyframes, filters and more.
Flexible Interface
Novice and advanced users will love the ability to customize their layout
completely. From simply splitting their viewport, to fully customizing it with
python scripting, blender works for you.
Blender’s interface also offers:
- Consistency across all
platforms
- No disruptive pop-up windows
- Crisp text (support for
retina on OSX)
