If you noticed in my previous blog post there are some small rocks on the ground. Here is an example scene file of how i created them. Instead of cloning bunch of small objects around the surface you can use displacement, which works pretty good until you don’t have to get very close.

Sometimes you want to add more than one material to Nurbs objects. Like cap or fillet can have different materials when dealing with the Extrude or Sweep objects. So instead of making these objects editable (converting them to polys), you can apply materials to the desired selections by typing in selection name in the material tag.

On the picture bellow you can see some text inside Extrude nurbs object (red) and bellow it you can see the same object converted to polys (blue). As you can see, Cinema automatically breaks Extrude nurbs object into different parts, such as base, roundings and caps which have material selection tags applied to them. If you select one of the tags you can see it’s name in the attribute editor.

Now you can apply material to your Extrude/Sweep… objects and manually enter the selection name in the material tag applied to your object. Although selection on that object does not exist, Cinema knows to which part it must apply the material. Voila!

I made a short animation for our latest Facebook application. The app allows you to send a MMS to which is then published on your facebook wall. Animation was made in two days using Cinema 4D and After Effects. And crappy sound design is also made by me :)

And here is the storyboard, animatics and final animation all in one movie :

So i finally had some time to make a mix of my best works from the last one or two years.  Here it is in SD, but i suggest you head over to the Vimeo and watch it in HD.

Thanks for watching.
