Cinema 4d Tutorials

In this series of tutorials, we will go through the process for rigging, animating, texturing, rendering, and compositing a morning news opener style motion graphics piece.We start out by creating a camera path that we can arrange our models around for a quick setup and flow of the piece. We learn how to create sweeps that move around our models for added emphasis, and we learn fast ways to get our camera pointing in the right direction along this complex path.

Cinema 4D® von Maxon hat sich in der Architekturvisualisierung einen wichtigen Platz erobert. Dieses Buch präsentiert jede Menge Tricks, mit denen Sie mehr aus dem Programm herausholen - vom Einrichten des Interface über die richtige Organsiation Ihrer Projekte, die besten Animationsstrategien, neue Möglichkeiten des Modellierens, Steuerung Ihrer Kameras, optimale Render-Kontrolle, gekonntes GI-Handling, Szenen-Setup mit 2D- und 3D-Vegetation bis hin zur Komposition shaderbasierter Texturen ohne Kacheleffekt.

The visualization of light in space, its effect on model cubature and scenery, is one of the great challenges in architectural rendering. This is a decisive reason for the use of 3D tools – both for architecture offices and students. This volume features a number of exercises that enable the reader to learn how to light architecture models correctly. Complete virtual 3D scenarios are included that allow for the step-by-step construction of a lighting set up with the help of Cinema 4D® software that creates a realistic spatial impression. The tutorials are complemented by a chapter on the use of Cinema 4D®, importing CAD models and light sources as well as shadow types, which have been revised and expanded in the 9.5 and 10 version.

A collection of Cinema 4D presets and tools for creating dynamic, movie trailer-style graphics fast.
Over 250 type presets, camera rig presets, light rig presets, material presets, Background presets,Seamless floor presets, Reflective sky presets, plus 12 complete scenes.The tools include 6 type tools, 4 camera rigs, 2 light rigs, a material tool, a seamless floor tool, reflective sky tool and background tool.

BodyPaint is a subset of tools and layouts inside CINEMA 4D that allow artists to paint and texture their 3D models. These tutorials aim to teach CINEMA 4D users how to use BodyPaint to enhance your 3D pipeline.
Author Thanassis Pozantzis covers a wide set of techniques, from material projections and generating UV maps to UV unwrapping, both for hard surface models (such as packaging and mechanical objects) to organic models (including humans, monsters, and animals).
