Six artists and developers collaborated on an open source CG movie project made with Blender. Not only has the short been made using open source applications but it is being published under a Creative Commons license, as well as all the production files it was made with. The animated short is definitely worth checking out, Terry Gilliam fans will most likely enjoy its surrealistic, oppressive atmosphere. Bit Torrents for downloading the movie can be found at Orange.blender.org. You can also watch the Elephants Dream short on Filmnosis and find more information on Wikipedia, Orange.blender.org, BlenderNation and CGSociety. Also of note, the production of the movie has resulted in the development of many new features for Blender itself.
