Cinema 4D - Looping 3D Animation for Instagram and GIF

Hey it’s Dave from CG Shortcuts, welcome to the Course! 

I’m a freelance 3D and Motion Graphics Artist based in London where I’ve been working and teaching in the industry for over 10 years. 

In this course I’ll show you how to create this looping photo-real 3D animation in Cinema 4D, which I’m calling the Jellybean Factory.  

This kind of animation is super popular on Instagram and other social media at the moment so it’s going to be great for your online portfolio! 

By the end of this course you’ll level up your Cinema 4D skills and be able to create your very own looping 3D animation.  

All you need is Maxon Cinema 4D and Adobe After Effects - don't worry if you don't have them because you can download a free domo to start learning straight away. 

We’ll also cover everything step by step so you can easily follow along, including.. 

• Modeling

• Camera and Scene setup

• Animation with effectors

• Dynamics

• Lighting

• Texturing

• Rendering

• Compositing

• Uploading to Instagram and creating animated GIFs

• Bonus Octane setup

There’s also a Bonus lesson on rendering with Octane Render for all you hard core MoGraphers out there 

Plus you’ll also get access to my project files so you can break them down and see exactly how it was done. 

That’s it for now, let’s get started!
