This tutorial will explain how you can effect the intensity of light objects in Cinema 4D with an effector and how to get a “turn on/turn off” look as well as a gradual light fade on/fade off type of example.

You will also learn another use for this method to create a noise meter animation where meter bars light up and glow, all controlled with an effector. And throw a little Cappucino & MoGraph Effector action to animate the noise meter to look like it’s reacting to crowd noise and sync it with a shaking camera as the intensity builds as the “crowd” gets louder!

A short explanation of the techniques used to create this awesome looking cloth test using Cinema 4D’s cloth simulation in combination with MoGraph.

In this tutorial, Tim Jacobs will show you how to create a glass material to be used in any scene within Blender using Cycles.

This tutorial will show you the making of Modernist Loft scene using 3ds Max, ZBrush, Photoshop and V-Ray. The furniture was modeled in 3ds Max, detailing was done in ZBrush, textures were created in Photoshop and rendering was done with V-Ray.

This tutorial will show you some tips and tricks while working with TurbulenceFD to create an awesome looking energy effect in Cinema 4D.

This video demonstrates the process of creating and animating a procedural deep sea like creature in Softimage.

The main areas of development include:

• Custom forces which drive the procedural motion, creating the soft and skin like appearance of the body.
• Tools for the definition of different behaviors contained in the same system of simulation.
• Tools for abstraction and interpolation of different geometric contexts for optimized performance and artistic workflow.
• Mechanisms for the transport of arbitrary attributes throughout the architecture for later use as reference systems or information for the rendering.
• A system for animated procedural texture synthesis decoupled from the geometric topology for a seamless coverage of the whole body.

As the whole system depends only on a few input parameters, it’s very easy to make topological and behavioral changes very fast. Because the Lagoa simulation itself is done only on the point set derived from the Delaunay triangulated base geometry, the process of developing the right movement can be highly iterative as the simulation times are very low.
The actual thick mesh is generated through a marching cube algorithm (Polygonizer) but could be replaced by any arbitrarily derived mesh loosely fitting the initial shape of the point set.
