![]() The SFM is currently in closed beta and will be made available - free of charge - later this year via Steam. “The goal of the SFM was to develop a story telling tool that allowed us to create computer animated movies more efficiently, and with greater creative freedom,” said Bay Raitt, designer at Valve. “Over the past five years, we’ve produced more than 50 animated shorts with the SFM. The Source Filmmaker will allow our community to create their own movies in Team Fortress 2 and in their own Source SDK-created mods.” ![]() ![]() This is also a clever way to promote your game, mind you. The release of Source’s Filmmaker is groundbreaking and gives players the ability to create gorgeous videos, like the following one. To celebrate the announcement of the SFM, Valve also released the ninth and final short in the “Meet the Team” series today, “Meet the Pyro.” DSOGaming writes: Perhaps Valve did the one of the cleverest things, ever. The SFM is a storytelling tool Valve developed inside the Source Engine to create all its animated short films, including those in the “Meet the Team” series of Team Fortress 2 shorts. The SFM condenses the production pipeline of an animation studio down onto a single gaming PC. For anyone else pining for the powerful crush of hydraulic hands, heres a brief hit in the form of a TF2 Source Filmmaker short. Valve, creator of best-selling game franchises (such as Counter-Strike, Half-Life, Left 4 Dead, Portal, and Team Fortress) and leading technologies (such as Steam and Source), announced the Source Filmmaker (SFM) and the release of “Meet the Pyro.”
