Tree of Faces
An old tree that holds faces, grown in code and moved by your song: profiles hidden in the gaps of its crown against a glowing sky, a lobe of its leaves that looks out, a face that wakes in its bark. The wind in its crown is the bass and the groove, light runs along its branches on the bar, and the faces come forward through a build and are fully seen on the drop. A moonlit hill, the four seasons, a whispering grove, a portrait in the bark, a sunset silhouette and a tree beside a lake.

Tree of Faces visualizer: Tree of Faces preview
Tree of Faces, 8 seconds on a steady 120 BPM test beat, looping with no sound. One old tree on a moonlit hill, the sky glowing behind its crown so every gap between the boughs reads as light. Two of those gaps are faces in profile turned to each other, a lobe of the crown looks out to the left and a face sleeps in the bark. The crown sways with the bass and rocks on the groove, light runs up the trunk and out to the twigs every bar, fireflies drift round the roots and the mist lies in the valleys; through a build the faces come forward, and on the drop the leaves part round them and a light settles at each eye. The live preview at the top plays the same look: pick a song there to watch it follow your own music.
What it builds
What this engine can build
A living tree that holds faces in its gaps, its outline and its bark: the bass and groove sway it, light runs along its branches on the bar, and the faces come forward on the build and are fully seen on the drop. Start with Tree of Faces, then combine it with logos, masks, captions, camera layers, and global effects without changing document formats.
- Editable 2D and 3D geometry, transforms, motion, and materials
- Every property has a default, keyframes, and bounded audio routes
- Blend with masks, media, text, logo, character, camera, light, and effect layers

| Spectrum rangeHow much of the 40 Hz to 14 kHz range the visual spans, from the bass up. Lower it to give the bass and mids more of the bars | 1 | Set by you |
| Frequency scaleHow the bars are spread across the frequencies. Log spreads them by octave, mel by how pitch is heard, and linear by hertz, which gives most bars to the highs | log | Set by you |
| Auto-levelLifts every part of the spectrum to its own recent range, so quiet highs move as much as loud bass. A note held for several seconds settles lower as it adapts. 0 shows the raw spectrum | 0.8 | Set by you |
| Primary audio source | bass | Set by you |
| Frequency focusWhich part of the spectrum drives this visual; while no explicit audio source is set, the motion envelope follows this selection | full | Set by you |
| Burst intensityGlow and trail swell on sharp hits; 0 keeps bursts off | 0 | Set by you |
| Audio contributionMaximum contribution from the primary audio route | 0.55 | Set by you |

| Warp centreWhere the warp is centred in the frame | centre | Set by you |
Tree
| Control | Default | Music |
|---|---|---|
| WindHow much wind moves the tree: the gusts that cross its crown, how far it leans with the bass and rocks on the groove, and how much its leaves and the grass shiver | 1 | Follows the music |
| Branch lightThe light that runs from the roots up the trunk and out to the twigs on every bar, and on every beat in the loud sections. 0 turns it off | 1 | Follows the music |
