volumetric material test

Nikolaus Gradwohl2014-02-28T04:50:49+00:00

I used the new volume output of a cycles material node coming in blender 2.7 for this material

sound visualizer experiment 4

Nikolaus Gradwohl2014-02-21T05:21:39+00:00

for this sound visualizer I subdivided a plane several times and used a triangulate modifier. The sound drives the intensity of a displacement modifier.

sound visualizer experiment 3

Nikolaus Gradwohl2014-02-11T06:12:27+00:00

For this sound visualizer I animated the color of a diffuse material node using a driver and an empty node

the song I used is called "To be named" and can be found here

sound visualizer experiment 2

Nikolaus Gradwohl2014-02-10T06:00:08+00:00

For this animation I baked a sound curve to the z-position of an emtpy. Then I used a cylindrical shape as a particle emitter that gets scaled by the empty and moved it along a curved path

I used the first 10 seconds of my song arp1 to test the visualizer

sound visualizer experiment 1

Nikolaus Gradwohl2014-02-07T13:52:21+00:00

for this sound visualizer I created a python script that creates curves for 16 frequency bands of the sound file

The song can be heard in full length here

my script is based on the unbake f-curve script by liero

I wanted to play with the nle editor of blender a bit so my kids shot me some footage of our marble run and I cut it into a 30sec short film using blender

I've created a headbanging hairball using blender and the cycles hair strand node

a small world

Nikolaus Gradwohl2014-01-12T16:40:39+00:00

I created a very small low poly world, maybe I turn them into a isometric tile for a game but I'm not sure yet

This is my first experiment with an animated material that uses the cycles anisotropic shader.
