in this experiment I placed instances of a sphere along a bezier-curve

Animation Node experiment - fcurve offset

Nikolaus Gradwohl2015-10-22T06:21:39+00:00

I made another experiment with the animation node addon. For this animation I copied a cube along a spiral path and delayed the animation for each cube to make them appear one after the other

Animation Node experiment - Particle cluster

Nikolaus Gradwohl2015-10-21T06:10:02+00:00

I recenly started experimenting with the animation nodes addon by Jacques Lucke. It´s really nice and as Nicolas Priniotakis from blender nation said in his review - If you install this addon you're hooked.

For this animation I used the particle cluster nodes from the animation nodes addon

multivew experiment 2

Nikolaus Gradwohl2015-10-19T06:25:13+00:00

This animation was rendered with 3 cameras simultaneous in blender. This time I used the new mutliview feature of blender 2.76 which has been build to support the rendering of 3D files, but is not limited to stereoscopic setups. It´s also possible to treat each camera different in the compositing editor

umbrellas

Nikolaus Gradwohl2015-10-15T06:06:21+00:00

for this animation I modeled an umbrella and animated the opening effect using shapekeys. Then I used this umbrella as a particle in a particle system on a plane. I wanted to render the animation from multiple camera angles and ended up copying everything to 4 different scenes - which is far more complicated than I wanted - I have to do a bit more research on this

time remapping

double helix

Nikolaus Gradwohl2015-10-13T06:04:57+00:00

for this animation I played with a curve- and a simple-deform-modifier

beat boxes

The soundtrack for this animation was created in bitwig studio, the boxes are rendered with cycles and the blender freestyle addon

fluid bubbles

Nikolaus Gradwohl2015-10-08T06:29:11+00:00

for this animation I used 2 particle systems. A newton system for the smaller bubbles and fluid system with an iso-surface for the large bubbles

particle driver experiment

Nikolaus Gradwohl2015-10-07T06:24:12+00:00

for this experiment I used a driver expression to animate the particle emission speed
