If you’ve ever used the Cinema 4D Volume Builder and Volume Mesher and have had issues with artifacts on your final mesh then this tip might be of use. We’ll use the Curvature Map you can generate with fields and then use a Smoothing Deformer to clean up artifacts on just the edges of your mesh. I hope it helps!

In this C4D tutorial I’ll show you a great technique to make your text turn into a jiggly jelly! We’ll go over some concepts that apply to a lot of other things. You’ll learn how to use the remesh tool, how to create a vertex map using fields and curvature and how to use the jiggle deformer and a turbulence to turn your geometry into goo. Enjoy!

Have you ever imported a particle sim from Houdini into Cinema 4D as a .abc Alembic file only to find you can’t even move the position of them? They’re locked down! I found a workaround to get past this annoying problem. I hope it helps!

In this tutorial I’ll show you how to create raindrops falling down a window pane in Corona Render and Cinema 4D. This technique can be directly copied in C4D Physical Render and the same principles can be applied in other render engines. We’ll use Blemish Pro maps to create the raindrops and use various nodes in Corona to randomize them and make it look really organic. Enjoy!

In this video I’ll show you some tips for how to use our Animated Cloth Pack. This product has 50 incredible 3D cloth animations which you can load into any render engine that supports them such as Blender, Octane, Redshift, Arnold, Houdini, Cycles and many more. They are .abc Alembic files which are super easy to use!

In this tutorial I’ll show you how to use LightMix and LightSelect in Corona Render and Cinema 4D. It’s a really incredible technique where you can control all your lights, reflections, refraction, color temp and HDRI AFTER your render is done! Pretty bonkers, and super useful. Enjoy!
