Posted on: Tuesday, 3 June 2008, 12:00 CDT
Sun Microsystems has announced the online release of the 3D animation film 'Big Buck Bunny' rendered using Network.com's Sun Grid compute utility service.
The movie is created using open source 3D software suite Blender, available from blender.org as well as Network.com Application Catalog, a collection of online grid-enabled applications that can be used in an on-demand basis. Additionally, Network.com is one of the web hosting locations for the online release.
Sun has said that the movie promotes open content creation as it is not only developed using open source software but also distributed under an open license that gives artists free access to the entire studio database of assets and files used to make the movie.
