Love this one…gives good insight into the variation and flexibility of mograph and procedural work in general
-
Fun!

I’m happy for you!

How about this concept of my animation

what happened to doing a tut on every connector?
-
Yeah dude, i was waiting for the ball and socket connector!!
-
-
Very interesting . Thanks about Great tutorials .
I Came from 3DS Max to C4d after after viewing your site
Thank u again . -
Yay! Chris is back!
-
Neat! But….when?
-
Sorry, I should have been more explicit. WHEN do you need a sucking vortex of balls (C4D loves balls), etc.???
-
For some reason when I apply the random effector nothing happens. Am I missing something? Other then that great tutorial, just getting back into C4D!
-
I have the same issue!
-
Yeah me to I have the regular version of cinema (not studio )and can only add one random effector, the other one just sits around doing nothing. Greatful for any help here
-
-
Same problem here. Can’t get the cube to scale. Also, on my screen I can barely see the settings you are making in the editor due to the video resolution. Great fun effect.

I made this, thanks to this tutorial.
It also uses a bit of Plexus and Optical Lens Flares
https://vimeo.com/45900932Thanks Chris!

Ho-ly crap! You guys! I have spent an indecent amount of time in here already. I love your work and everything you do on this site, it is so good of you and flippin´ fingerlicking awesome. You have immediately cashed in on my awe, and from the looks of it, many many others´. All the best for you and what you´re doing. Will be a regular from now on.

thanks for the great tut. I wonder how i can do this animation to make energy orb then explode
-
Great Tut Chris……can’t say how much it’s appreciated that you, nick and all else take the time to share your knowledge….rare these days!
I have a question about the vortex tut with the helix…..
Is there a way using dynamics to stop the cubes from intersecting as they swirl around?
I am animating a bunch of musical notes flying into a music dvd boxset and would like a natural look….this vortex tut may work well, but I need the objects not to intersect…can you point me in the right direction please mate?kind regards
Simon

Chris, you rock!! Very passionate tech, I love that.
I have a question. Could you add a simulation tag to the scene so they spin as they touch and don’t interpenetrate? Thanks!
