Intro to Cinema 4D: Getting Started with 3D Design

Cinema 4D is a great piece of software for creating 3D art but getting started can be a little daunting. This class covers the basics of how to use the interface, create and texture 3d objects, as well as how to light, animate and render them out for final use. If you’re interested in learning the fundamentals of the software, whether you’ve used it before or not, then this is the class for you. Once we've covered the basic skills we test them out by building a 3D spaceship. In addition to the full Version of Cinema 4D, you’ll be able to do this class in C4D Lite (included with After Effects CC).
