Dreams Video

The dreams video is a meditative journey into the Mandelbrot Set. This video relies on colour cycling to animate small bands of colour, creating mesmerising movement.

This video actually uses the same data set as the "Aqua and Black" video. Patreons can download a high quality 4k version.

How It Was Made

The data for this video was rendered with Kalles Fraktaler. In fact it uses the same dataset as the "Aqua and Black". The data was calculated at a resolution of 8k. A new colour scheme was designed in Kalles Fraktaler with mostly black, but with bands added. (There was no need to recalculate the data, the plugin allows you to swap out the .kfr file)

Adobe After Effects was used to assemble the data into video. Maths Town's own free plugin kfMovieMaker was used. You can check the settings below. The motion is calculated by animating the colour cycle wheel. The video took about 30 hours to render in 8k on my 16 core machine (h264 encoding).
