Getting Started with Scripting in Python

Abstract: Blender3D is a powerful tool for 3D modeling, animation, rigging, texturing, drawing, vfx, and more -- but what happens when a feature is not available in your respective domain? Good news -- you can create it yourself! In this talk, I will be showing beginners how they can get started creating their first add-on to the Blender3D ecosystem using Python. This talk will show you how to get started with the scripting interface for artists with minimal programming experience, or programmers who want to write tools that integrate into the Blender3D ecosystem. Folks will leave this presentation understanding how to write, package, and find more information to develop awesome scripts where they need!
