On March 22, 2025, IT Academy STEP Cambodia hosted a special Blender workshop, giving students an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the Oscar-winning animated film Flow. The event brought together students from IT Academy STEP and participants from other schools, all eager to learn about 3D animation and Blender’s capabilities.

A Deep Dive into Flow

The session kicked off with a full screening of Flow, allowing attendees to fully immerse themselves in the film’s stunning visuals and storytelling before diving into the technical aspects. After the screening, Teacher Brunov provided a brief breakdown of the plot, setting the stage for an in-depth discussion on the creative and technical processes behind the film.

Blender: The Power Behind the Animation

The highlight of the event was Teacher Brunov’s detailed lecture on how Flow was entirely created using Blender, one of the most powerful open-source 3D animation tools available. Students learned:

- The full animation pipeline – from concept to final render.

- Essential Blender tools and techniques used in professional animation.

- The key add-ons used in Flow, including GeoScatter, Ocean, and more, which helped streamline scene creation and rendering.

- The differences between game development and movie animation, emphasizing how games require optimization for performance, whereas movie production allows for limitless creative expression with high-end hardware.

- Animation essentials such as animatics, character rigging, and scene composition, crucial steps in bringing animated characters to life.

 

Why You Should Join Our Next Event

This workshop was a fantastic opportunity for students to gain real-world insights into animation production and see how industry professionals utilize Blender for high-end film creation.
