Blender has done a lot to open up access to 3D modelling, animation and VFX. The free open-source software has enabled a generation of young talent to hone their skills in a way that might never have been possible otherwise (see our guide to the best 3D modelling software).
One result of this has been the rise of Blender VFX breakdowns on social media, where users recreate effects from big budget productions, sometimes making it look almost easy. But a meme doing the rounds on Reddit has sparked a big debate about these.
