> Hi all,
> 
> I'm looking for someone or a small team interested in producing a
> short 2.5 guide for the Blender Foundation. This could even be the
> first episode of a more regular "Blender proceedings" to appear online
> and in print.
> 
> In short, the guide could cover the following:
> 
> - Basic introduction to how Blender 2.5 works
>   (aimed at people who know other 3d programs a bit at least)
> - Highlighting the main changes since 2.4
>   (aimed at people who used Blender before)
> - Maybe some tips & trix, to experience the best of 2.5
> 
> The formatting could be:
> 
> - Written and styled as a magazine, lots of graphics & images (like 3D  
> World?)
> - Short articles, an attractive and activating browsing experience
> - Content can be copied partially from wiki or our blogs as well.
> - Full color design, room for artwork (renders, sintel stuff, etc)
> - 60-80 pages?
> 
> The guide would become freely available (Blender wiki license
> compatible), as ebook or pdf too. If budget and interest allows, I'd
> also like to print copies for the blender.org store, and to spread (or
> sell for a couple of dollars) on conferences or events.
> 
> What I'm looking for:
> - editor and/or writer(s), proficient in English & with writing
> experience
> - graphics designer, who can also make it print ready and knows ebook
> formats
> 
> Budget: quite minimal for now, it's a Blender promotion product :)
> But if we can print and sell in our shop (low price, 14 euro?) I can
> allocate a budget of 4000 euro for the total project (excl printing).
> 
> Deadline: ready for delivery and distribution end of june latest. I'd
> like to find a way to spread this on Siggraph, for example.
> 
> Open discussion can be done on this mailing list, but send offers/
> proposals or references of your work to me in private! Best
> candidate(s) get the job!
> 
> Thanks,
>
