3D Typography: Playing with Color and Volume

Overview

“In this lesson, we will learn how to model the inflatable letters. All of the letters except the U's are done using the same technique, so we'll start by copying all of the letters into a new document and zeroing out their position and rotations. Then follow the next steps for each letter in turn.”

In this video lesson Thomas Burden addresses the topic: Modelling the Letters 1, 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.

We'll be going through the letters and how to make those look inflatable in this lesson. All of them are done in exactly the...”
