Blender just released [Version 4.1](https://www.blender.org/download/releases/4-1/) on March 26th, 2024, [with a bunch of new features](https://www.blender.org/download/releases/4-1/).

Blender is a well known, very powerful, professional 3D modeling and animation software program.

Blender is feature rich, and possibly the most complex piece of open-source software you will ever run into.

Blender can be used for:

- Creating 3D Visualizations

- Creating 3D Stills

- Creating Broadcast Cinema Quality Video

- Editing Videos

- Modeling Objects for 3D Printing

- Animations

- and much, much more.

Here is a video series of almost 50 videos introducing you to 👉 [Blender fundamentals](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MF1qEhBSfq4&list=PLa1F2ddGya_-UvuAqHAksYnB0qL9yWDO6).

You can get Blender from your distro repositories, or if you want the latest version, you can get it via Flatpak 👉 [here](https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.blender.Blender)

Here are some open-source short-movies that were created in Blender:
