Depends on the market, for making the next pixar movie probably not (yet). However blender usage is way, way up and my game studio (Prehensile Tales) has no difficulty finding extremely talented blender users.

An open source project doesn't have to be the very most used thing from the beginning in order to eventually eat everyone's lunch :)

That's an interesting name for a game studio. What's the story behind it?

I love monkeys, and I like making video games with stories in them. So "prehensile tales" is a somewhat oblique way of saying "gripping tales"

Also, it let me have a cute monkey as a logo : https://prehensile-tales.com :) (I'm not selling anything there, but you can see the logo)
