For this part of my blender curve experiments I made a toy-train that runs through my particle wood

The track was inspired my by fireplace-train

in this part of my blender curve experiments I tied a curve into a knot

for the first part of the animation I used a build modifier and the tightening of the knot was animated using a shape key

for this part of my blender curve experiments I modeled a boat using a beziercurve, a bevel and a taper object

for this part of my blender curve experiments I made plenty of curves using an array modifier and used a shape key to move them

I made an anmation of a robot reciting the Three Laws of Robotic

Because every Robot has to know them. They are the law.

The audio track was generated using freetts.

I desided to start a new series of blender experiments. This time I want to explore the possibilies of curve objects.

For this part of my blender curve experiments I tried to twist a beveled curve-object and change the bevel object using shape keys

for this part of my blender particle experiments I moved a forcefield through a particle system.

This short animation is my second cycles material-animation test. This time I animated the IOR parameter of a glass material to make the letters go from nearly invisible to solid glass and then the mix parameter to turn it to a diffuse surface or metal

would make a nice effect for a film title

In this short video I experimented with animating the parameters of a node based material. In the first half I animated the color of a velvet node, and then the mixing value to blend between a the velvet material and a glass material

For this part of my blender particle experiments I made a wood - using a particle system with no physics and group rendering
