Valve’s Source Filmmaker Now In Open Beta!
A couple of weeks ago Valve announced the Source Filmmaker, and the people rejoiced. With this new tool, many aspiring artists were going to be able to be the Francis Ford Coppola. There was only one problem, though: the Source Filmmaker was in closed beta.
Not anymore! Last night Valve announced that the Source Filmmaker, while not 100% complete, was available as an open beta. And, what’s more, it’s completely free, so you can get to work on your masterpiece without breaking out your credit card!
When Valve unveiled the Source Filmmaker, one of the things they announced was that it would come with the completed “Meet the Heavy” short in the program to act as a template for people to try out the different features of the program. However, as many of you might know, the different “Meet the Heavy” videos out there are starting to get a little stale, so in order to freshen things up a bit, Valve also put in the “Meet the Engineer” short into the open beta. I gotta say, I’m looking forward to seeing what people come up with!
