Sintel marks an important moment in the history of cinema. Entirely build on open source economy and production and distribution model and using gaming aesthetics. This short animation demonstrates an alternate industrial framework to that of traditional film makers…. The pre-market funding model is fascinating and the fact that DIVX is behind this instead of a major film player hints towards a computing based industrial model……. wonder how long before animations studios adopt these technologies …. and in the process eliminate some major animation software developers…. History in the making ……
This Star wars lego is also marking a maturing of the p2p producers. The subject is moving into satire and adult humour….. Already 4 years old and 21 million hits later….. no longer a fad…..
