Introduction to Cinema 4D

Overview

“The hierarchies within Cinema 4D are fundamental, since this software relies on them to interact with most of its functions. We will learn to create groups and sub-groups and control how hierarchies behave with different elements. This will accompany us throughout the rest of the lessons and courses.”

In this video lesson Francisco Cabezas addresses the topic: Hierarchies, which is part of the Domestika online course: Course 1: Introduction and Basic Concepts. Get to know the program, its interface, and the main tools.

“In this lesson we will learn one of the most important methodologies of Cinema 4D, such as hierarchies. They are so important because practically all our work will be based on them. We're also going to see how to create groups and subgroups. Let's see it. The hierarchy within Cinema 4D is very important and we will use it all the time because it is the one that will determine us which object moves with which object, how I have a modifier affect an object. Especially for animation is very important and to include modifiers to objects. For example, if I create a cube, and now I think ... a cy...”
