Open Movie Big Buck Bunny


Big Bug Bunny is the second Open Movie after Elephants Dream and it is really astonishing what a team of dedicated artists can create with a limited budget. The quality of the movie is excellent and on pair with popular Dreamworks creations but unlike those Big Bug Bunny can be freely distributed and is already available in various formats and video portals.

The video is available in the formats MP4, H.264, Ogg and MSMP4 and resolutions 1920×1080, 1280×720 and 854×480 as well as versions for Sony’s PSP. The direct downloads are rather slow at the moment and I suggest to use the torrent download for fast and speedy transfers.

Another option would be to view the video on Youtube (ok quality) or Vimeo (better quality).

The story begins a bit slow but it’s nice and entertaining. Have fun, exactly the right thing for a Sunday.

    I’m downloading it, it’s available on usenet (a.b.boneless)

    It made me chuckle, and it looks great. Torrents were fast. This really shows the power of open source software, which is great.

    I heard a similar team is making an open game? Anyone know anything about that?

  7. Jonathan says:

    It is a nice video from the graphic stand point, but he file is over 800 mb for a 9 min video! Anyone else notice that?

  8. Famf says:

    It’s because they’re really high quality. Also, they use Quicktime h264. Which just sucks.

  9. Martin says:

    First of only the 1920×1080 movie has that size, the others are considerably smaller. Then there is not only a h264 version of the movie, you can download others if you prefer those.

    Famf, get the reencode available at http://thepiratebay.org/tor/4224333 for x264 work. Closer to source yet smaller; whoopee!
