Animation

https://youtu.be/a8HRyIYq_Jo     In this video I show how to make 'realistic' rain and puddles in TouchDesigner. The basis of this is a GLSL Top and vertex displacement on a PBR MAT.

I have been creating interactive projects for over 20 years and a lot of that time was spent in Adobe Flash and later HTML5.  A large part of that work used programmatic tweening in actionscript and javascript.  One of the main tools I loved to use was called GreenSock which is still around today fo

To automate some tasks putting keyframes over the timeline. It works leaving marks (ctrl+shift+f) in the current frame , to send pulses each time the playhead goes over those frames.  These marks or key[F]rames can be sent as a channel by 'id' to an Animation Component in which these can be edited.

Keyframer is a keyframe editor component that can be used to create and edit keyframes in the animationCOMP. It is meant to be a replacement for the currently built animation editor in TD.

Recently created Les Fantômes based in France just released a new creative kit that allows participants to quickly craft their own animated character away from the computer screen.

In this tutorial series we are exploring certain ways of animating text using Touchdesigner. Where our multiple tutorial series 'Kinetic Typography' focuses on building an actual text tool for iterating typographic animations quickly, this series is more focused on examples from the field.
