I've been wanting to make a pin screen with Blender for a while. I have a toy one, and it's a lot of fun. A few days ago, I saw a video on BlenderNation of someone who made one using Geometry Nodes, and I decided to get to work on my own. There are still some details to refine, but it was surprisingly easy to make.

Unfortunately, sometimes the result doesn’t turn out the way you had in mind. Creating the pin screen was fun and, I think, has potential, but the final render isn’t worth much in my opinion. Placing the camera vertically over the screen doesn’t help, since in the end I could have done almost the same with a couple of effects in DaVinci Resolve without all the hassle. That said, no one can take away the fun I had.

I have a flow to make a similar pin screen thing in touch designer, it would look dope with some audio reactive bumps, specially as she is singing. But I like it a lot as it is!

Great idea, thanks again! I can definitely do something like that with Blender, although it’s quite a bit more limited than TD when it comes to analyzing audio and extracting numerical values to drive the pins. I’ll give it a try! 🖤
