3D World
The new 3D World magazine is on sale from today in the UK. I was offered the exciting opportunity of creating the cover artwork and a twenty second animation for this months issue.

Working with Mark Allin, an old friend and my ex-business partner from HYPA. We both developed the concept and design of the piece. I then took the designs and worked up the 3D animation in Cinema4D and completed the composite and grade in After Effects. Thanks to Mark, who also created the sound design for the animation.
As part of the project, I wrote a 36 step tutorial that walks you through the processes to create something similar yourself. Please visit the 3D World official website to find out more and order your own copy.

In this short tutorial, I show you some more of the features available in the Cinema4D MoGraph module.
By using the Sort option in the Cloner, you can use Effectors to determine which clone from the hierarchy is displayed.
The Sorted option in the Random Effector allows you to use each child of the cloner the same number of times, or in combination with the multishader you can ensure the shaders are distributed evenly across your clones. Great for things like playing cards where you don’t want duplicate clones.
To find out more visit Vimeo and watch the tutorial.

Hi everyone and welcome to helloluxx, the new home of my blog.
As a thank you for all the continued support, I’ve created a Light Dome scene that you can download for use in your own Cinema4D scenes. You will need MoGraph to use the setup and I created it using Cinema4D r11.5, but it should work fine in r11, and maybe even 10.5.
Light Dome - Basic Render Result
The Light Dome is fairly straight forward to use. Here’s a screenshot of the available parameters.
Light Dome Parameters
I’ve also created a short tutorial that gives you a quick overview of the controls. You can check this out on Vimeo.

Here is one of my tests using the 11.5 Render Instances. Two lights with area shadows and global illumination.
1098001 objects
490380300 polygons
505851300 vertices
Yes that’s 490 million polygons… You may ask why? Well, just because we can!

Uploaded a short test animation I created using Cinema4D Thinking Particles and Tracer. Visit Vimeo for the HD version, although the compression destroys it some what!

I’m sure all of you out there are familiar with the fantastic work that Trish and Chris Meyer offer the After Effects community through their website, Pro Video Coalition, the AE List and of course their awesome Creating Motion Graphics with After Effects books series.
I studied Creating Motion Graphics Edition One years ago when it was first released and it is incredible the amount of information they pack into those pages. I still have a copy of CMG Edition 4 sitting here on my desk right now. It is most definitely the bible for any Motion Graphics artist who uses Adobe After Effects.
Trish has recently posted a review on Pro Video Coalition of Making It Look Great 6, the latest Cinema4D training that I have released as part of the Motionworks Making It Look Great Series.
So if you are interested in buying the training and are looking for a review then head on over to Pro Video Coalition for an in depth review that spans three long pages.
Many thanks to Trish for spending the time to go through Making It Look Great and writing such a glowing review.
