Cinema 4D Essential Training: 9 Particles and Dynamics

Introduces particles (used to simulate effects like snow, sparks, fog, or fire) and dynamics (which allow you to define how objects interact with their environment).

Introduction

• Welcome
• Using the exercise files

1. The Basic Particle Engine

• Understanding the Emitter object
• Working with particle forces
• Particle exercise: Creating an impact splash

2. Thinking Particles

• Explaining the Thinking Particles (TP) workflow
• Breaking down the TP standard emitter
• Using TP with the MoGraph Tracer

3. Dynamics

• Understanding the dynamics engine
• Explaining the difference between Rigid and Soft Bodies
• Working with MoGraph and dynamics
• Combining TP and dynamics
• Creating dangling objects with spline dynamics
