About the video: Soft dynamic objects

Overview

“We will learn to simulate gravity for objects with soft behavior. This type of behavior, together with that of rigid objects, is one of the most interesting effects in Cinema 4D. We can control the pressure and deformation of our soft object.”

In this video lesson Francisco Cabezas addresses the topic: Soft dynamic objects, which is part of the Domestika online course: Course 5: Basic Animation Tools and Concepts. Learn to use basic animation tools and tags.
