3D Typography: Playing with Color and Volume

Overview

“Now we’ve got our c4d document set up, we can begin to build up a 3D sketch, using our 2D one as a guide, with primitive shapes and simple extrude nurbs.”

In this video lesson Thomas Burden addresses the topic: Create a 3D Sketch in C4D, which is part of the Domestika online course: 3D Typography: Playing with Color and Volume. Learn how to create surreal typographical animations using Cinema 4D and Redshift.
