colab_blender

This is a Google Colab Python Notebook which can be used to render blender files with a GPU in the cloud. A google account is required! With slight modifications it can also be used with other Python Notebook compute offerings like kaggle!

Instructions

First of all: You will need to own a Google Account!

Once you are logged in you either upload the script found here to Google Colab or just use the Open in colab Badge above.

Now you will need to upload your .blend file and all needed seperate assets to Google Drive(either via the web gui or desktop application).

Once done open the runblender.ipynb in colab and insert your .blend files name and path into the specified script fields and run the script.

You will be prompted to authorize that Colab will need access to your Google Drive.

Other runtimes

This script is not exclusive to Google Colab but might need minor modifications to be able to run!

This script/repository isn't associated with Google Colab or Google in any way!
