Hi Cineversity,
I have a client who is asking our team to explore parametric design for development of some eye candy for future products.
I realize the tools with Cinema can allow for some very nice design with mograph and geometry, however, I am having some difficulty achieving some elegant and somewhat complex results. I have a decent amount of experience with Cinema, but am not versed in expresso.
I am specifically trying to make the shape attached, or something similar. I have tried creating the basic ‘square’ shape, duplicating it and creating a mesh, then using a collision deformer on that mesh. My results are less than ideal, mainly because the collision deformer just is not manipulating the mesh in an elegant manner. It pushes the points in a rather erratic and forceful manner. I have tried to simplify the mesh, adjust settings on the collision deformer, with no positive results.
Can anyone out there tell me if this sort of effect is even possible within the current tool set of C4D?
Thanks,
JC
