About the video: The first scene 1
Overview
“In this lesson, we'll create the animation for the first scene. We'll quickly set up a few elements, then begin our first cloth simulations. Then, we'll be able to place and animate our cameras.”
In this video lesson Guillaume Combeaud addresses the topic: The first scene 1 , which is part of the Domestika online course: Create a 3D cinematographic introduction with Cinema 4D. Create a captivating 3D introduction video with Cinema4D, using realistic simulations and octane rendering.
Partial transcription of the video
“The first scene. In this lesson we will create the animation for the first scene. We are going to put some elements in place, start our first fabric simulation, then place and animate our cameras. Thanks to the storyboard, we know that we are going to have two shots. On a white wall, in a frame, a fabric with multiple textures will become deformed. On the second level, we will be able to read the name of the speaker. Now we will create our two fabric shapes, then have fun morphing between the two. So for our first scene, we will start to simulate the first two fabric shapes. Here I advise y...”
