C4dapt - Cinema 4D Advanced Production Techniques

Take your Cinema4d skills to the next level with Cinema4d advanced production techniques from Simon Holmedal, Paul Everett, Raphael Rau, Simon Fiedler, Derya and Douwe in this 13 episode series recorded live in Copenhagen at a 2 day seminar hosted by Pingo van der Brinkloev. Over 8 hours of screen captured material has been edited into this intensive package with in depth talks about Mograph, Xpresso, workflow, modeling, photo realistic rendering with Vray?, NPR rendering, Python, particles, plugins and dirty tricks. Though the techniques are advanced, you will be able to tag along and replicate the various workflows. Scene files are included as a link in a separate clip.
