https://i.ytimg.com/vi/NkZ60lF-nKM/hqdefault.jpg



Learn about some cool tools available to help build your own affordable render farm in the cloud. In this session we cover Amazon Web Services concepts and then we jump into how we can utilize AWS with Blender friendly commercial software from Thinkbox Software and then how to do the same with a set of free and open source Python scripts called Brenda which were developed specifically for Blender.

Unleash the computing power of the cloud and think BIG with your next Blender project.
