"Inside Blue Zoo's R&D: Building a Digital-First Toolkit in Blender" by Dane Winn, Vasil Shotarov, Joshua Palfrey at Blender Conference 2025

Join Blue Zoo for a look inside ZooKit, our powerful toolkit for Blender. We're building a workflow where a single artist or small team can take an idea from design to final render. This talk explores how we use Geometry Nodes and Rigify for character creation, world-building, and look development. We'll share our R&D process, from a universal character creator to procedural environments, offering a practical look at the challenges and breakthroughs shaping our digital-first pipeline and empowering artists to do more with less.
