Bye Bye Big Tec - Open Source Design
21.10.2026
18:45–21:15
Working independently and creatively with open-source software and freeware—let’s get started!
We’re breaking free from the tech giants and using community-based digital tools for designing and editing images and videos. What tools are already available, and are we using them?
You’ll discover alternatives to the expensive “closed-source” programs from Adobe, Microsoft, Maxon & Co.—for image editing, video editing, and 3D rendering. We’ll show you how, as a designer or photographer, you can break free from the pressure of cloud subscriptions. So your images aren’t used as training data for Meta or Google’s AI, and you retain control over your artwork.
The course is suitable for beginners as well as experienced creators.
You’ll gain insight into open-source programs and affordable alternatives for:
- 3D rendering and animation
- Image editing
- Video editing
