# Render Blender scenes on Deadline Cloud
<a name="examples-jb-blender-render"></a>

The [blender\_render](https://github.com/aws-deadline/deadline-cloud-samples/tree/mainline/job_bundles/blender_render) job bundle shows how to support a CLI application in about 100 lines of YAML. Most of the template is parameter metadata that defines parameter names, types, defaults, and user interface controls. The step definition includes a parameter space that creates a task for each frame in the Frames job parameter, and a short script that substitutes job parameters and the Frame task parameter into a command for each task.

Submit the bundle with the GUI submitter:

```
deadline bundle gui-submit blender_render/
```

Or submit from the CLI with parameter values:

```
deadline bundle submit blender_render/ \
    -p BlenderSceneFile={{path-to-scene.blend}} \
    -p OutputDir={{path-for-outputs}}
```

To run this bundle, your queue needs Blender available through a queue environment. The [blender-4.5 conda recipe](https://github.com/aws-deadline/deadline-cloud-samples/tree/mainline/conda_recipes/blender-4.5) and other Blender recipes in the samples repository build conda packages you can publish to your queue's S3 conda channel.
