fresnel reflection

Nikolaus Gradwohl2013-10-31T07:10:41+00:00

This animation uses a cycles material that blends between a diffuse and a glossy shader using a fresnel input node

fix particle curves

Nikolaus Gradwohl2013-10-28T06:18:42+00:00

For this animation I placed a particle set with no physic simulation on a small meth and create one particle per vertex. Then I animated the meth and created curves using the bTrace plugin from the particle positions

crawl on a sphere

Nikolaus Gradwohl2013-10-08T06:36:18+00:00

For this short animation I created a fluid particle system that crawls on a sphere in a no gravity setting and traced the particles using the btrace plugin

ice cubes wallpaper

Nikolaus Gradwohl2013-10-02T04:07:40+00:00

I rendered a new wallpaper for my Desktop using blender. I used a location input on a cycles mixshader to blend between a blue diffuse and an emmision shader to make the cubes glow

object traces

Nikolaus Gradwohl2013-09-23T04:46:08+00:00

For this animation I used the bTrace-addon to create a curve from a set of particles. Then I wrote a small python script that copies the current state of the curve every 5 frames. I animated the visibility of the copies to make them appear only if the original curve has passed this position to create a 3D onion skinning like effect.

Wireframe letters

Nikolaus Gradwohl2013-09-06T09:48:15+00:00

For this animation I played with the new wireframe node in cycles. I used the wireframe factor to blend between a transparent and a diffuse shader.

tentacle blob

Nikolaus Gradwohl2013-08-23T06:46:44+00:00

For this animation I combined the blender Metaball objects with the cycles hair renderer

distorted video in blender

Nikolaus Gradwohl2013-08-22T10:47:58+00:00

For this animation I added a lot of video distortion using the node editor you can download the blend file here
