How to make animated point clouds from any 3D model or photoscan

Believe it or not but this awesome piece of art was made in Blender and a scan of location from Polycam app.

VFX artist and videographer Massimo has made this artwork in 3 brief steps:-

• Capture the mesh of the place/object in Polycam app.
• Import the mesh data in blender and convert it to points with Blender.
• Finally animate them using geometry nodes.

Massimo was inspired by the works of Midge Sinnaeve. (You should definitely check them out)
