Elephants Dream Elephants Dream (code-named Orange and originally titled Machina) is a 2006 English-language and Dutch-produced 3D CGI animated science fiction 9-minute short film that was produced almost completely using the free software 3D suite Blender (except for the modular sound studio Reaktor and the cluster that rendered the final production which ran Mac OS X). It premiered on 24 March 2006 after about 8 months of work. Beginning in September 2005, it was developed under the name "Orange" by a team of seven artists and animators from around the world. It was later renamed "Machina" and then to "Elephants Dream", referring to a Dutch tradition used by parents to abruptly end children's bedtime stories with the introduction of a sneezing elephant.
