Overview
Learn to create interactive motion graphics that react to music, voice, and movement.
In this 3-hour hands-on starter guide, you’ll build real-time 3D visuals using VerkLabs’ node-based editor. Start with simple shapes, then make them pulse to music, respond to your voice, and morph with gestures.
No coding required.
What You’ll Create
1: Introduction
Set up an account and get started with the Shader Editor. Create a 3D object. Learn how to save and share your projects.
2: Animation
Build visuals that pulse and shift colors in sync with music—control bass, treble, and rhythm.
3: Interactions
Make your designs respond to your voice through the microphone, use your webcam as a live texture, and control effects with hand gestures.
4: Shapes
Morph spheres into organic, breathing forms that evolve with sound and movement.
5: Objects & Camera
Build scenes with multiple objects and animate camera movement.
6: Particles
Create swarms of particles that dance, swirl, and respond to audio and gestures.
