A New Live 3D Pipeline for CINEMA 4D and Adobe After Effects

Explore the exciting possibilities with the new live 3D pipeline in the next Adobe After Effects. In this tutorial series, you’ll learn how to create a motion graphics piece in CINEMA 4D Lite and composite and render it through Cineware in Adobe After Effects.

This video explains how we set up a softbox-style reflection panel using the polygon primitive and gradient shader. You’ll also learn how to use the Interactive Render Region and Set Active Object as Camera position the reflector panel.

In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to create a video wall using the Rectangle spline primitive and the Spline Mask object. You’ll learn how to texture the rounding and cap portion of the screen separately, how to use the External Compositing tag to create a solid in After Effects, an how to create an object buffer or luma key for a specific object.

In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to use the Fracture object and Plain effector to quickly animate the text in a flexible, parametric way. The Fracture object and Plain effectors are a small taste of CINEMA 4D’s powerful MoGraph toolset that you have access to once you register and activate CINEMA 4D Lite.

In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to create a balloon using a simple bezier spline profile and the Lathe object. You’ll texture the balloon, and then learn how to easily place and animate the balloons using the Fracture Object and Random Effector. The Fracture Object and Random Effector are a taste of CINEMA 4D’s powerful MoGraph feature set that you have access to once you register and activate CINEMA 4D Lite.

In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to create text using the Text Spline primitive and Extrude NURBS object. You’ll learn the basics of camera navigation and discover the most important parts of the CINEMA 4D interface, such as the Attribute Manager, Object Manager and Material Manager. While setting up a material for the text, you’ll see how to apply a Fresnel effect and adjust the specular highlight on an object.

This tutorial includes the project files for the entire series. The footage is not included in order to keep the download small. Just use your own favorite party footage.

In this tutorial you’ll learn how to integrate CINEMA 4D scenes into After Effects. You’ll see the different options in the Cineware effect, and how to work with multiple passes within After Effects. You’ll learn how to extract cameras, lights and solids from the 3D scene and use those to incorporate video in After Effects. Finally, you’ll see how easy it is to change your scene in CINEMA 4D Lite and instantly update your entire composite without ever hitting the render button.

In this video Dr. Sassi introduces the various modeling tasks that the following videos in the series will be dealing with.  These tasks include but are not limited to: creating patterned selections, creating the geometry for a hole and using MoGraph to place holes on an object.

In this video Dr. Sassi introduces the concept behind this series and discusses the importance of retraining the eye to really see the details in images. This series highlights the ability to see things in a different light, which enables you to decide when to follow the rules of reality or make creative choices.

In this video Dr. Sassi introduces the the concept behind the “Animation Techniques for Teams”. The series revolves around Dr. Sassi’s idea of “ChoreoGraphiX”, which takes concepts from choreography and applies it to motion graphics. 
The focus of the videos will be on the usage of the Motion System in CINEMA 4D, and how it can be used to arrange clips of animation just like you can arrange clips of video in a video editing application.
The series will include discussions on the different methods of animation, including:  Manual, Procedural, Parameter, Motion, Morph, Dynamic and XPresso, and the considerations that need to be made when converting each to Motion Clips.

In this video Dr. Sassi outlines a method for utilizing the structure manager to easily create patterned selections on objects that have a grid based polygon structure. This demonstration is done with a Plane, but can be expanded upon to work with Cylinders, Cubes, Torii, and even the default Sphere.

In this video Dr. Sassi talks about the work he did to create a desert sunset. During the breakdown he introduces a multi-layer technique to simulate parallax and depth for the camera moves. The tutorial shows how to prepare the layers in Photoshop and how they are set up in CINEMA 4D.

In this video you learn about how this series on Cinematography is structured. This will start with a description of what a Cinematographer does.
