A movie called “Flow” has won the Oscar for the best animated feature
film. What’s interesting about it is it was created by a small,
independent company, using Blender 3D open-source software.

I have been looking at a number of reports of Flow’s Oscar win, and many
of them mention the fact that it was made with open-source Blender
software. Reuters was one, and Variety (pretty much the Hollywood trade
rag) and USA Today were others.

Gints Zilbalodis even mentioned Blender in his acceptance speech.
