Get ready for the Blender JAM, but let's be real—why does this event still have so many limitations? A 1-second animation challenge with a pre-rigged character sounds fun, but is it really pushing the boundaries of creativity? It feels more like a gimmick than a genuine opportunity for artists to shine. We deserve better than being boxed into a theme with a ticking clock. I remember attending events that truly celebrated artistic freedom, where the sky was the limit. It's time we demand the same enthusiasm and openness in collaborative projects like this. Don’t let constraints stifle your creativity! So, what are you going to do about it? Let’s push for real innovation, not just a flashy event. https://www.blendernation.com/2025/10/08/blender-jam-a-collective-animation-experiment-by-eli-rabinovich-at-blender-conference-2025/ #BlenderJAM #AnimationChallenge #CreativeFreedom #BlenderConference2025 #ArtisticInnovation
