Moving a camera around geometry usually means animating its position and rotation together, or mixing several cameras with Camera Blend, which moves the camera along straight lines between positions. This camera crane works differently.

Ever wanted to peer into the depths of your TOPs and understand their hopes and dreams and pixel data? TOP viewers are the solution. You've probably used them, but there are a bunch of features in there you might not know about. https://youtu.be/a506pLGhIfY

Derivative's TDMCP is the official MCP server for TouchDesigner. MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open standard that lets AI agents such as Claude or Codex connect to other software and work with it through a defined set of tools.

Hi all, I've been building td-atlas, a free, open-source (MIT) connector between TouchDesigner and AI agents that speak MCP (Claude Code and others).

The TouchDesigner Beginner Class is a twelve-week introduction for complete beginners — artists, designers, musicians, architects, event technicians, programmers — who want to learn the tool properly rather than collect tutorials.
TouchDesigner Beginner Class Winter 2026/27

The Beginner Class taught you to think in nodes. This one teaches you to ship. The Beginner Class runs on playful exercises — one way of thinking per week, on screen fast. That's how you learn the tool. It isn't how the tool gets used.
TouchDesigner Intermediate Class Winter 2026/27: NODE moves from exercises to full applications

Some people just need the material. Some need a mentor who's actually in it with them. Five years, 400+ students. The course was never the problem — two things around it were. The Winter 26/27 edition improves both.
NODE splits its TouchDesigner Beginner Class into recorded lessons and live consultations — and cuts the entry price to €240
The October TouchDesigner Meetup, Custom Tools for TouchDesigner, is about the moment a patch stops being a one-off and becomes something you reach for again and again.

This tutorial is about the 4D as a way to deform geometry. You lift a 3D object into 4D, rotate it there, and project it back. The result is a smooth deformation that is hard to get in another way.
