So what exactly does this do?
Blender, or this file?
Blender is a program for making animated movies. It allow you to create 3D models, give them a skeleton and use that to describe how they can move, define the movements they do, and turn all that into a movie. You can also render a single image (in which case you don't need to worry about skeletons and movement).
Blender is notorious for its nonintuitive user interface. While this is right, it is a very powerful UI once you are used to it; almost everything can be done using keyboard shortcuts.
This file has a white ground plane and a camera and lamp set up in the correct position, so that if you add your model to it, the rendered shadow will be equivalent to the other shadows of dink sprites.
