Is there a place to log creative works that people have made with #FOSS tools?

I've had people try to tell me that they aren't professional enough a couple times, which is bupkis. It would be nice to have a source to show the breadth and scope of what's possible. (And I'd have a few to offer as well.)

Good group to ask this question would be the Blender Foundation.

In the late 90's, Blender was a proprietary professional animation suite that was competing with Adobe.

They did an #ExitToCommunity which is why it's now FLOSS. :D

There are still some early show-reels out there from ad agencies that were using Blender then, and are continuing to use Blender now. :D

I remember seeing the BaskinRobbins animated fridge ad on TV, and later finding it on Youtube. :D

@BillySmith @Jeramee @lps @blender Just a question, doesn't blender has plenty of animated films created and uploaded on their YouTube channel "Blender studio" to showcase the capabilities of blender like Spring, Charge, Sprite fright. I think the recent one "Charge" was great.

@lps

"swapping for" does not mean that you couldn't donate financially to support these projects. even 1/10 of what you gave to a CS suite is something!

#foss devs need to eat and have fun.
