Creative Clouds in Cinema 4D
Play Video
In this tutorial we'll be high above the Earth making some clouds that are natural looking and have some depth and volume, while not using the Pyrocluster plugin. After we create the materials, I'll show you how to adjust the various settings to make a wide array of different types of cloud formations. The sky is the limit!

Cinema 4D: Making Objects Interact with Grass
Play Video
In this tutorial, Neal will show you how to make grass and have it react to objects! To achieve this effect, we'll use MoDynamics for the physics of our object, and hair collision to cause the grass to react. We'll also be lighting the scene simpy and quickly using Greyscale Gorilla's HDRI Light Kit Pro

Part 1: News Intro Composition
Play Video
In this tutorial, we'll begin a two-part project constructing a cool looking news intro composition. In part one, I'll show you some texture techniques, as well as using a combination of Mographs's Plain Effector and Delay effector to achieve some really smooth, really nice text animating into view. I'll also introduce my Softbox preset for Cinema 4D that I constructed inspired by GreyScale Gorilla's (no legal issues here - 100% self made).

Stop Motion Text with Cinema 4D
Play Video
In this video tutorial, Neal shows how to get started making a stop-motion text effect using Cinema 4D's MoGraph module. He'll be taking a pretty good look at MoSplines and the Vibrate tag to create a text treatment that resembles shooting the same few frames over and over again, and repeating them.

Poser & Vue Integration Within C4D
Play Video
One of the wonders of the C4D platform is it's interconnectivity with other sources of 3D models. Let's be honest, who has time to handcraft thousands of blades of grass or populate the night sky one star at a time? But using the content available in Poser and the generators found in Vue, it takes just a little longer then this 5 1/2 minute tutorial to put that content into C4D for integrated scenes and robust animations.

HP Skyroom: Power & Simplicity for Remote Workgroup Tasks
In this article, Ron Lindeboom looks at the powerful HP Skyroom technology, which allows team members to interact in high definition video with one another, as they work on projects and approvals remotely. Highly powerful, yet priced within reach of many small to medium-sized companies -- nevertheless, the system is powerful enough for even major players like Dreamworks Animation, who used the system during the making of the blockbuster 'Monsters vs Aliens.' Powerful, elegant, simple to use.
