10.18.11»99frames« – The Social Animation ProjectDavid Drayton from Maxon Computer has started a personal project called the 99 frames project to encourage people trying out the new Cinema 4D R13 features. Everybody is invited to participate in this project, which is about having fun, learning, and sharing your work with the world. For more detailed information please turn to the 99 frames project home page, where you also may download an according C4D template to start with. Rules are rather simple, e.g.: use at least 1 new C4D R13 feature (why not the new stereoscopic camera feature?) no stills, only animation will be accepted it must be ...

10.08.11Abstract Motion Clips With MoGraphIf you still need some inspiration concerning your own motion graphics project for 3D III you simply may do a quick search on Youtube or Vimeo, and with a little luck you perhaps will find something amazing, similar to the beautiful example by David Drayton below. Imagine the possibilities, particularly in stereoscopic 3D ...

08.22.113D Animation Workshop on Dynamics and SimulationIf you still may need any inspirations regarding your own 3D animation project for our upcoming Dynamics Workshop, you urgently should have a look at the video below, showing the renowned art film "The Way Things Go" (1987) by the Swiss artist duo Peter Fischli and David Weiss. However, since this kind of physical and chemical chain reaction of objects which fly, crash, and explode, seems way too complex for us to do virtually, we can – and will – try some less complex simulations with the rich tool set of the C4D dynamics engine. So, let's start now: Tell your ...

07.28.11SpongeBob SquarePants UpdateRecently, I fixed a remaining problem with our little sweet SpongeBob model, and added a Pose Morph Tag, as well, which allows you to move the fingers of the right hand to a fist kind of, for example. Please add some more poses to this tag, and also place another morphing tag to the left hand, to get a small amount of smooth transitional hand poses. However, opening the file still may seem to destroy the character pose and rig as a whole, at first. If that occurs, simply do the following: uncheck the Skin Object, push the "Set Bind Pose" ...
