Cinema 4D Essential Training: 2 Polygon and Spline Modeling
Cinema 4D Essential Training: 2 Polygon and Spline Modeling is an Beginner level study on 3D + Animation, crafted by the creator, Rob Garrott. This study is an important pillar for an individual who needs to get better at his/her 3D + Animation skills. It gives you a thorough grip on 3D + Animation, CAD, Photography, Video, Modeling, Visual Effects, CINEMA 4D, 3D + Animation, CAD, Photography, Video, Modeling, Visual Effects and CINEMA 4D.
CINEMA 4D Essentials with Rob Garrott is a graduated introduction to this complex 3D modeling, rendering, and animation program, which breaks down into installments that can be completed within 2 hours. This installment covers the basics of the 3D modeling toolkit: splines and polygons. Rob reveals the components behind polygonal-modeling (points, edges, and polygons) and how to manipulate them with the tools in CINEMA 4D. He then walks through splines, an alternative to polygons that uses curves to create 3D geometry. The final chapter shows how to combine these techniques by creating a model of a speaker system.
Topics include:
- Understanding points, edges, and polygons
- Working with the Knife, Extrude, and Bridge tools
- Connecting splines
- Rounding corners
- Extruding paths from Illustrator
- Reviewing the polygon and spline modeling workflow
- Working with NURBs
