From Polish to Purpose: Beyond the Final Render
From Polish to Purpose: Beyond the Final Render” explores a shift in how Blender can be used—not just to create polished images, but to think, communicate, and drive decisions. Through real-world examples, including the building of FattyPack, this talk shows how 3D can be applied far earlier in the process to clarify ideas, align teams, and create real impact. Attendees will leave with a new perspective on the value of their skills—and where those skills can take them beyond the final render.
