Cinema 4D Masterclass: The Ultimate Guide to Cinema 4D

via Skillshare

Overview

The ultimate guide to Cinema 4D.

This training course has been prepared to take you from knowing nothing, or just a little about Cinema 4D and teach you all the fundamental skills so you can start working on your own. 

Ozgur, who is one of the very few Maxon Certified Instructors in the world is going to show you how to create a 3D project from scratch, and go through the entire process of a 3D workflow, including modelling, lighting, texturing, animating and rendering. 

Along the way, you will learn countless tips and tricks as well as the industry standard techniques. 

If you are a graphic designer, looking to add that extra dimension to your work, or perhaps a 2D motion designer looking to take your animation skills to the next level, then this course is for you. It is no secret that you can earn more as a designer if you add 3D to your skillset. This course is designed to teach you just you need to know in order to advertise yourself as a 3D designer. 

Packed with over 8 hours of intuitive and easy-to-follow tutorials, this training course is all you need to kickstart your 3D journey. Together with each tutorial, there will be an exercise file that you can download and follow along. 

If you are ready to step up your design game and move into the world of 3D, let's get started!
