3D Design for Commercials with Cinema 4D and Redshift

Lighting in 3D with Cinema 4D and Redshift

“Congratulations! If you've reached this point, hopefully you've mastered the course project and gained new knowledge about light, materials and how they interact. Thank you for your participation and attention. The goal of the project is to illuminate a still life composition in 3D and to create the materials for it. Here I would like to summarize the most important steps you have to follow: The still life scene Open the project file, which does not contain any lights or materials. Since this course is about experimenting with the techniques you have learned, you will work on my already modeled scene.

The Light Light the scene. You can use a mix of area lights and a dome light. Consider the impact the light has on the scene. Should it highlight certain objects or create a certain mood? The materials Create the necessary materials for the objects in the scene. You can try different textures and patterns and also experiment with colors - this can change the entire mood and look of the image. The finishing touches Before you render the image, you should check for errors or think about what you can improve. Maybe you can make some changes to the colors so that they look more harmonious. You can also adjust the lighting or other materials. The rendering Once you are happy with your image, you can render it and share it with me and the other course participants! Upload the finished still life scene to the forum by simply clicking on "Create your project". Show how your work evolved with pictures of your process. Feel free to add a short description so we can see what you did at each step. If you have any questions, don't forget to ask them here in the forum. You can also see what others have done and exchange ideas with them. I will check in as often as possible to give you feedback and advice. Thanks again and see you soon! ”

“final project Congratulations, you have your realistic still life scene created in Cinema 4D. Now I want to take the time again to talk about the different steps we've taken to work on our final project. Before we started production, I told you about me and my career. I shared with you my biggest influences and inspirations. As the first part of the production, we dealt with references and you could see how I work with them and create mood boards. After that I showed you why the correct use of light is so important and how a scene can be affected by it. Then I introduced Redshift as a rende...”
