In this series, we are going to learn some neat tricks about certain values. Namely, we are going to animate some textures Color value, and some composit node values as well. This is just plain keyframing, nothing complex, but the outcome is pretty good.

First of all, we are going to create the room, and after that, the textures for it. We are going to change the mood from an evenly lit day scene to a nightmarish dark place, and a bloody text "Redrum" will appear on the wall with the writers handprints. For this, we will need some phases of the textures. We will give some more layers to the mood with some camera effects (composite system) and with a short little sound effect, which will be used in the video sequencer.It wont take you long, so warm your Blender and Gimp up and get ready!
