0
By on People

Bad Decisions Studio talks to Andrew Price for almost TWO HOURS about his history with Blender. Also, they eat some donuts 😂.  (Oh and I don't think I did the gingerbread man, but I appreciated getting my name mentioned!)

Andrew Price, AKA Blender Guru, is a famous YouTuber who is particularly known for his Donut tutorials on Blender. He is also Founder & CEO of Poliigon which provides high quality 3D assets that support the world’s leading 3D artists. @blenderguru talked about the story behind his famous Donut tutorial, the changing landscape of education, his impact on an Oscar-winning movie, and got his perspective on Unreal Engine.

I have a LONG history with Blender - I wrote some of the earliest Blender tutorials, worked for Not a Number and helped run the crowdfunding campaign that open sourced Blender (the first one on the internet!). I founded BlenderNation in 2006 and have been editing it every single day since then ;-) I also run the Blender Artists forum and I'm Head of Community at Sketchfab.
