Robert Leger: Quick Tip #2 – Creating wavy surfaces with the Random Effector

Filed under C4D List Blog

“A very cool technique I use quite often is to set MoGraph Effectors to “Point” or “Polygon” mode. By that one can create interesting deformations or – like in this example – turbulence animations. Check it out! Endless possibilities guaranteed!”

In this half-hour XPresso Lesson result we will take a look at two ways to set up the arrow-preset: The first one uses the point-node to position the spline’s points, the second one uses a Mograph Tracer object along with symmetry-objects. Don’t forget to check out the submissions at the bottom of this post. I’m sure there are even more techniques to realize this preset.

Hello, Tony Rivera here. In this tutorial I’ll be sharing some of my techniques for creating tattered cloth using Maxon Cinema 4D. We will learn how to create this effect by making a flag simulation using the power of C4D’s Spline and Boole tools. This technique was used on one of my recent collaborations/artworks for http://evokeone.com.

Filed under C4D List Blog

Linear Workflow is a relatively new feature for Cinema4D. Before the introduction of Linear Workflow in C4D Release12 it was only possible through the use of third party plugins such as DeGamma by The Third Party.

This article aims to explain the concept behind Linear Workflow (LWF) and in the process look at the correct techniques, file formats and procedures when using LWF in your studio pipeline.

Filed under C4D List Blog

In this tutorial I demonstrate a technique that allows you to create a sticky type effect with your dynamic simulations in Cinema4D.

By using the Force object in combination with Step Falloff you can create a setup where the objects stick together depending on the force applied.
