Maxon Cinema 4D r21. 3D graphics for motion
Miscellaneous / / December 05, 2023
Cinema 4D – one of the most popular programs for creating 3D graphics, used to solve a wide variety of problems: visualization of interiors, modeling of objects for 3D printing and games, creation of special effects for cinema and content for television broadcast. Animation support, high-quality rendering, an intuitive interface, and built-in support for the Russian language make it especially popular among the Russian-speaking audience. This program is an excellent choice for designers who want to quickly and efficiently get excellent results in any of the areas related to 3D graphics.
In Cinema 4d lessons you will master working with basic program objects, as well as learn basic modeling methods more complex 3D objects for their subsequent texturing, lighting, animation and export to Adobe After Effects.
The course is of interest primarily to video designers who want to learn how to add both static and and animated 3D scenes with photorealistic lighting and materials without preliminary rendering in video file.
Benefits of the course:
- The course takes into account the innovations of the latest version of the program and offers, among other things, an introduction to all the new tools.
- The course program focuses on the truly important features of Maxon Cinema 4d, allowing you to quickly move from study to work.
- Our Cinema 4d lessons are designed for both beginners and experienced professionals. All you need is first-level knowledge of Photoshop and the basics of After Effects.
- The teacher has extensive experience in creating 3D graphics and examines in class examples that are as close as possible to real problems.
- Students are provided with electronic educational materials that can be conveniently viewed on a PC or tablet.
- After the course you will receive an international certificate and a certificate of advanced training.
- A free employment service will help graduates find decent work after graduation.
