Morphing Coral @DonWhitaker

Uploaded August 2013 | Updated September 2026, 1 week ago

This is a test render that was too pretty to throw away. (^_^)

I'm trying to decide what to do with this shape I found that looks like ornate coral or a multi-colored octopus. There are some wonderful shapes in there, but I don't really think this morphing sequence is what I want. I think I'll try several slowly changing shots of my favorite shapes - I want to get a good long look at those crazy details.

I mixed up the music in a Windows RT app called Music Maker Jam.

Here's the Mandelbulb .m3a file for this animation: dropbox.com/s/kxgopudnqvpnskh/morphingcoral-anim.m3a

and another spirally one for Pouff:

$Slices 5 Another in my Slices series. These images are a part of the process I use to take 3D shapes from Mandelbulb 3D and convert them into usable mesh objects for ZBrush and Unity. They are thin slices of the fractal shapes that are stacked together to form the 3D objects - they also make for some really spiffy animations. :) Music is Roll The Top Down by Gunnar Olsen from YouTubes free music collection.

$Mandelverse Express - 001 This is the first in a series of short 3D fractal animations - quick peeks into the myriad possibilities of the Mandelbulb Universe. Most of the fractal animations Ive created for this channel took FOR-EVER to chug through and render all of the frames. Weeks, sometimes months. I thought it would be a fun change of pace to make a bunch of shorter animations - things that I could render in a day or two. This way well all get to see more crazy spaces, more often. Maybe Ill stumble upon something that needs a longer look. Or we might find Bigfoot playing Pac-Man with the Chupacabra - who knows? o.O Grab a seat and enjoy the journey.
