For this animation i played with the sapling addon and the eevee render in freestylemode using blender 2.80 beta

I created a tree and a separate foliage object and assigned it a material with an emmission shader to make sure it is evenly lit and creates a uniform color in the final render. Then I animated the camera location and the focal point to create the slider movement and the follow focus event and added a defocus blur in the compositor.

I really like the cinematic feel of this small animation - if I find the time (hahaha) I work on this a little more and turn it into a music video

I recently got a new phone and needed a wallpaper for it. So I fired up blender and made one. Its based on the wallpaper I made for my computers a while ago, but this time I also added a tree using the sapling addon

because spring is getting near, and everyone is googling for flowers and bees (i have about 10 hits a day all coming from google searching "ascii flower bee"),

i made a processing-sketch showing a blooming tree

every time the applet is started it grows it unique tree
