Learn Cinema 4D - Looping Abstract Shapes
Offered By: Skillshare
Course Description
Overview
In this course, you’ll learn how to make abstract shapes in Cinema 4D. We’ll animate the shapes and create seamless loops.
You'll need Maxon Cinema 4D(Prime, Broadcast, Visualize or Studio) and Adobe After Effects.
We learn best by doing, so this is a hands-on, project-based course.
We will use a procedural workflow that doesn't require any modeling. That means that all settings remain editable, and we can change the entire look by just adjusting a few sliders. It makes the whole process of creating and experimenting fun, flexible, and powerful.
Here's a glimpse of what we'll cover:
- Creating geometry from splines
- Working with the displace deformer
- Creating looping animations
- Adjusting the focal length of Cinema 4D’s camera
- Working with lights
- Creating and applying textures
- Using the OpenGL Hardware renderer
You'll have access to all the project files, so it's easy to follow along.
Good Luck!
