So it's only gonna take 45 minutes, but should only take a few minutes to download and then we'll install it. So go ahead and make sure you click on beta 2.8 and then it should download. This is I guess, an older one, but we want the beta. So let's download Blender 2.8 beta and then it should automatically Recognize that you're on a Mac, if not just click on Mac OS, and then choose your little guy here accordingly, one is stable, and one is beta. You know, I didn't want to teach you the old thing. But I wanted to teach you all on what's coming. And I really want to just teach Blender because I think it's really cool and it's got a new facelift, they've added a lot of new features, so you can check out all the new things they've added. Or you can just go to Ford slash two dash eight.Īnd then you'll get to the new screen. There you go, Blender 2.8 go ahead and click on that. So what you want to do is go to your browser of choice, I'm just going to click on Chrome here. This helped us to keep the core of Blender contributors together to work on 2.8.Īnd last but not least: special thanks to the community – the developers, documenters, bug reporters and reviewers – it is thanks to them that we can start this wonderful new era of Blender 2.In this lesson, we're going to install Blender 2.8 beta on a Mac or Apple computer.

Thanks goes to everyone who contributed to the Code Quest, the massively successful 3 month workshop in Blender Institute during spring 2018.Īnd we thank everyone who joined the Development Fund in 2nd half of 20. This enabled us to work on the viewport, Eevee, collections/layers, UI and tools redesign.

Special thanks goes to Tangent Animation and Aleph Objects, who funded 4 additional developers to work full-time on Blender 2.8 during the crucial 2017 period. The people who work for the Foundation and Institute did a tremendous job to bring Blender is where is it nowadays.

The Blender developer community is being supported by the organizational powers of Blender Foundation and its spin-off Blender Institute.
