Discover how to create, animate, and control curves in Blender using Geometry Nodes with PIXXO 3D.

What You’ll Learn:

  • Creating Curves: Start with a basic curve line and resample it to add resolution.
  • Animating Curves: Use noise textures and scene time to animate curves smoothly.
  • Adding Thickness: Convert curves to meshes and control their radius and resolution.
  • Scattering Objects: Instance objects like icospheres along curves and control their placement using spline parameters and endpoint selection.

I have a LONG history with Blender - I wrote some of the earliest Blender tutorials, worked for Not a Number and helped run the crowdfunding campaign that open sourced Blender (the first one on the internet!). I founded BlenderNation in 2006 and have been editing it every single day since then ;-) I also run the Blender Artists forum and I'm Community Lead at n8n.
