Description

In this class, you will learn how to take a still image and turn it into a 3D scene by using Cinema 4D. You will create a complex animation based on a photograph.

Subjects covered on this course include 3D Camera Calibration, Scene Reconstruction, Material Projection, Realistic Lighting, Motion Blur, Hard & Soft Body Dynamic Simulations, and the great new addition to Cinema 4D's toolkit: Magic Bullet Looks for colour enhancements.

The training will give you countless tips and tricks related to Cinema 4D, so even if you are an experienced C4D user, you will still find a lot of useful information, shortcuts, best practices and workflow techniques.

Ozgur, who is one of the very few Maxon Certified Cinema 4D instructors in the world, will guide you through all the aspects of creating an eye-catching and fun 3D project.

Who this course is for:

  • Anyone who is interested in advancing their skills in Cinema 4D
