On Saturday, February 25th I hosted a workshop in Boston!
Python and Blender Workshop Details
In this workshop, participants will learn the basics of how to use python to control blender and improve the way they do their work. Blender makes it very easy to automate tasks expand its out-of-the-box functionality. Knowing how to use scripting can take your artwork and animation to the next level, allowing you to focus less on the repetitive tasks and more on the things that matter.
