I might be late to the party with this one, but if you got 10 minutes, you definitely have to look at this ‘open source’ animation movie.

Elephants Dream is the world’s first open movie, made entirely with open source graphics software such as Blender, and with all production files freely available to use however you please, under a Creative Commons license.

The short film was created by the Orange Open Movie Project studio in Amsterdam during 2005/2006, bringing together a diverse team of artists and developers from all over the world.

The Youtube video below is in HD quality. Feel free to watch it fullscreen or get your own 720p download here.
