About the final project for: Animated Poster Creation in Cinema 4D

Animated Poster Creation in Cinema 4D

“And with this we have reached the end of the course. I hope you have learned and enjoyed a lot. Next, I am going to review the steps that I have taken to develop the project that I have done during the course: Reference search and sketch I have started looking for ideas and documentation to approach the project and I have composed them on a mood board for reference. Then I have sketched the composition of my postcard.

Construction of the scene Afterwards, I have moved on to the 3D scene modeling the elements of the stage. First, I have created basic shapes to later add detail to both the architectural elements of the stage and the elements of the terrain.
Lights, materials and animation Next, I have applied lights and materials to define the style of the composition. Once done, I have animated some of the elements of the postcard.
Render and post-production in After Effects With everything ready, I have rendered the scene and I have taken the strips of frames to After Effects to compose the final animation.
Export and final result Finally, I have exported my postcard and converted it to an optimal format to share it with the world. Finished!
This is a learning process where trial and error is very helpful. Enjoy the road and do not get frustrated if it does not come out the first (or the second, or the third ...) what you are looking for. Now is your time, share your final project by clicking on "Create your project". As I have done, remember to share both the final result of your postcard and the steps that have led you to it. And I encourage you to try to do things different from those that I have raised in the course. It would be great to see different postcard formats, different places and corners of the world or others very far away. Seas, rivers, jungles, mountains or deserts, the Grand Canyon of the Colorado, your childhood town or the rings of Saturn. I would also like all students to give each other support in the course forums and share knowledge. I will also be there to try to guide you through the process as much as I can and resolve any doubts that may arise. It has been a pleasure. Thank you so much! ”

Partial transcription of the video

“Final project We come to the end of this Domestika course. We will see a summary of everything we did. I started by sharing with you my influences in the 3D world and signage. Next and to tackle the project, we brainstormed ideas and a mood board to guide the process. Then we saw some composition keys and tools to make it more dynamic and interesting. Perhaps this lesson is the most complex, since composition is an art that we will develop throughout life and we will never stop learning. Then we release the hand with pencil and paper until we reach the final sketch. Remember not to be afrai...”
