Graphic Design & Animation

This workshop introduces Maxon Cinema4D which lies at the intersection between 2D and 3D digital asset generation, and its industry leading toolset allows for the production of high-fidelity static and motion based work. I could either generate a 3D Logo or name in Cinema4D, by extruding a vector and adding a material. Or create a 90 frame animation using the techniques covered in the session. I watched a couple of videos to introduce me to what can be done in Cinema 4D. Cinema 4D is a useful programs to create 3D adverts. Below is the MAXON Cinema 4D Advertising Reel 2015.
