First Day playing around in C4D

[Landith]

Well I was playing around in C4D today as I just got it yesterday and I'm kinda happy with all I can do with it so far. Still working out everything but so far it's hot.
I have a semi-finished intro I've done with text, I just have to finish it up in After Effects with Optical Flares, maybe some light particles coming from the bottom and a depth of field 3D shading line going along it as the camera moves about the text then it will be finished.

Anyways here is a little sample of what I did in about 5 minutes after doing the intro thingy. It kinda shows what I did with the other one but has more and can loop so yeah...

Only like 2 seconds of video.

Watch in HD for the full effect

Oh nice.

Badass Landith.
Would make great Logos.

Damn I have that program too,But I cant run it with my computor,its 5 years out of date.
To think I could be animating my mangas by now lol.

[Diokatsu]

Respect. It's good, albeit a bit overused of an effect.

@Diokatsu:
It's only two seconds long! Lol. How can it be overused? LMAO.

Text shattering and reforming? That's a pretty overused effect.

its a test scene boyo

Oh...you meant the effect in general? I thought you meant he was overusing a certain effect in his work, Lol.

Nah, man. In truth, I still like the effect. I just had to be the one to say something about it's usage.

[Calintz]

@Diokatsu:
I see, I see...
Well I'm not too familiar with this kind of stuff, and that said...the fact that I've seen it around before proves your point.

@Landith:
I say good job!

[36inc]

yes Im with Cal,its a nice test.

[Diokatsu]

In truth, I still like the effect.

[Landith]

Lol. Guys, guys, it's all good enough arguing

Thanks everyone, it's still my first day so the text shattering and reforming is the only thing I know how to do at the moment
But of course I'm going to learn more.

The next step is trying my hand at 3D modeling of a hand and then making a window that will shatter and fall to the floor and stay. I think that would be pretty cool. Then maybe I could model a gun and a bullet and have it flying at the window with air coming out behind the bullet and a flash on the muzzle to make it look like someone shot the window :O

Idk yet but I'll definitely update this with my progress on C4D

Do it. I was impressed.
