TOSMI (Training in Open Source Multimedia Instruments)

Description 

TOSMI courses are designed to introduce media professionals to the benefits and possibilities of an open source pipeline in audio-video production through a professional training course for Blender.

Professional 3D Animation with Blender is taught by the best Blender animators and art directors.

The programme covers: rigging and rig retargeting, compositing, multilayer and multipass rendering, character setup, interactions and advanced animation.

The course includes one day of presentations in Sofia and five days of teaching and hands-on work in the mountain resort of Bansko.

Target group 

3D artists; professionals from the film industry, animation and visual effects; production managers.

Benefits 

An intensive course taught by some of the leading 3D artists, who will share tips and tricks otherwise learned through years of practice; the training simulates a real production environment – trainees work in a team to produce a small scale 3D project going through all stages from conception to a finished short movie; trainees will be taught the latest 2.5 version of Blender and its new features; and last but not least, those interested in the set up of a production process have the chance to encounter a pipeline entirely based on free and open source software.
