Only had a week or so on this due to school holidays and festivals but here’s my entry for Pwnisher’s latest challenge.

Was a super fun one (even if I did have to patch the living daylights out of it in post!)

Question how to perfectly center multi objects?

Post image
2 Upvotes

i wanted to use symmetry and i don't want to move the objects manually so i'm trying to use axis center, the body of the model is right where i want it but the speakers didn't follow, even if did the same what did to the body it doesn't work, the only way it worked was making the three objects as one not with null.

ps: sorry if this is so obvious i'm totally noob here

this was a radio modeling from polygonpen modeling series

Hello everyone,

I want to do 3D product motion design. Is there an article or video where I can get information about camera angles and transitions like in the example? For example, will I do each camera angle scene by scene, or multiple cameras in a single scene? Thank you in advance.

Octane Personal project/study into SSS and Octane Scatter

Personal project that had me model a replica of the mug I use most days for coffee. I originally modelled this to be a component in another render but I was pretty happy with the model and texturing, so I felt it needs it's own little project.

Rendered in Octane, the project helped me look into Octane Scatter, baking alembics for movement in the vegetation and a basic gobo. I think it turned out pretty good but would be happy to hear what else I could have considered.

No affiliation with Carharrt or Carhaart WIP btw, it's just a brand I support. Real mug for reference.

Question Camera movement

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I’m still pretty new to Cinema 4D and I’m trying to learn camera animation.

I understand the basics of moving and keyframing the camera, but I’m struggling to make my camera movements feel smooth and cinematic instead of just moving from point A to point B.

Do you have any tips, tutorials, or exercises you’d recommend for someone who’s just starting out?

I’d really appreciate any advice. Thanks! 🙏

I'm stoked with how it came out, but man it was such a wrestling match to get the cloth settings right - and even then I had to hide some stuff by using multiple shots with different settings.

Solved why doesn't the subdivide tool preserve the square shape like the knife tool ?
