In this Blender Secrets tutorial, ChrisP explores the practical applications of Closures, a powerful new feature in Blender 5. Learn how to create a flexible animation system in Geometry Nodes that allows users to plug in custom easing curves for dynamic motion.

Key Steps Covered:

• Basic Bounce Animation: Start with a simple bounce using a float curve and map range to control timing.
• Generic Animation System: Build a reusable node group that accepts start/end frames, vectors, and a closure for custom easing.
• Closure Integration: Replace static float curves with closures, enabling users to define their own easing functions.
• Advanced Easing: Use Bézier curves or multiple bounces to create unique motion effects.
• Vertex-Level Control: Leverage closures to apply animations per vertex, adding elasticity or stretch effects.

Discover how closures can enhance workflows and unlock creative possibilities in Geometry Nodes.
