In this video, we will create a script that generates an abstract animation loop that animates metaballs traveling along curves.

Start Code:
https://github.com/CGArtPython/blender_plus_python/blob/main/in_or_out/in_or_out_start.py

Complete Code:
https://github.com/CGArtPython/blender_plus_python/blob/main/in_or_out/in_or_out_done.py

Complete Code with the bpybb package:
