Picking up the Pieces - C4D Revealer

You can now pick up my new Cinema 4D template today over on videohive.  This detailed file looks a lot more complicated than it actually took to figure out how I was going to achieve this effect; which I think is a win-win.  Also the long light streaks in the video are custom made, not from the Optical Flares plugin incase you were wondering.  Enjoy!!

Abstract 3D Vector Lines

Blue Floating Form Lines

Above you see a still from my new motion graphic background which a good chunk of it was made using Cinema 4D.  Also below here you can find the sample video of the animation.  Originally I had planned to make something like this totally in After Effects but after about 10 minutes I quickly realized that the amount of detail I needed to make this happen (with like trapcode form) would be way to complicated for after effects to still be responsive. So I headed over to Cinema 4D to see if I could figure out how to do it in there.  I was actually able to produce the general shape relatively quickly but having the lines animate organically was a little bit of a challenge for me.  Anyways if you are interested in picking up this elegant background head over to videohive today!

Here is one of my latest looping #C4D animations.  It is a gold trophy that spins 360° in a seamless loop.  I spend about 2 minutes online looking at 3D models of trophies and I really didn’t find one that impressed me at all.  So I decided to make one from scratch which turned out to be a pretty nice experiment with sweep NURBS and the wrap deformer.  Reflections off the trophy were going to be very key so I spend almost an entire afternoon messing around trying to find what worked best.  You can visit Videohive.net to start downloading this animation as well as the silver & bronze versions today!
