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

A chillout track featuring a pad made from a guitar sample. Recorded in bitwig-studio

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

I wrote a bitwig-studio controller script for the yamaha MX49 and MX61 keyboards

you can download it from my github page

to install copy the files to your 'Bitwig Studio/Controller Scripts/' Folder

I mapped the 4 knobs to macro 1-4 on page 1

to macro 5-8 on page 2

and to volume, pan, send1 and send2 of the selected channel on page 3

"AddInst Track" creates a new Instrument Track

and "VSTi Window" opens the device browser.

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

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

an ambient track that started with slowing down a loop veeeeeery much in bitwig

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
