Blender

Blender (free)

Blender is a free and open-source 3D computer graphics software toolset used for creating animated films, visual effects, art, 3D-printed models, motion graphics, interactive 3D applications

This is a program that requires installing on the computer being used - it is not “cloud” or web-based. This app also does not (easily) run on Chromebooks unless you have a solid working knowledge of Linux OS, so we will be using Windows desktop computers in the lab for the campers who’s computers are not compatible.

Here is the “about” page of the program: https://www.blender.org/about/

Here is are two links for training:

• Blender Tutorials page: https://www.blender.org/support/tutorials/

• Blender Studio Training page: https://studio.blender.org/training/ (free & paid content)

Here is the link to download and install on your computers. NOTE: It will work on Windows, (Apple) MacOS. and LinuxOS. https://www.blender.org/download/
