Title: Five mandelbox morphs/flights
Post by: Starmute on July 13, 2015, 01:45:01 AM
These are probably far below the standards of this forum, but I decided to post them anyways.
I've been learning to use Mandelbulber (2.04 and 1.16, mac), and over the past few weeks I've been making some flight animations. I have created five so far (that were of sufficient quality to post on YouTube), and I'm still not sure why I posted the first two.  :whistle:
The first two were created using 2.04 (no keyframes  :sad1:) because I was unaware that 1.x had that capability. This was horrible, tedious, and torturous. In a flight that I created between number one and number two, I eventually found myself in an incredibly boring, Julia-like section with exactly one type of detail, over and over and over - no variation. I eventually crashed into a wall intentionally to vent my anger. I don't want to see semicircular holes ever again.

Anyways, here is the first one:

Number two:

Third time's the charm (or is it?):

Number four, with extra morphing (please):

And finally the fifth one (with even more morphing [morephing?]):

The music to each one is as follows:
1. Theme to Star Trek: Voyager
2. Theme to Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
3. Mahler, Symphony no. 8, Part II
4. Mahler, Symphony no. 2, Fifth Movement
5. Mahler, Symphony no. 1, First Movement

very cool! i definitely enjoyed the ones with lots of morphing.  in my experience with Mandelbulb it's been hard to get those really smooth morphing transitions but I thought you really succeeded in videos 4 & 5
