Create color and patterns with shaders

“

- [Instructor] Now, let's look at how we will create color and patterns with shaders. So, we've got this MoGraph object, which is doing some crazy animation. And we need to make it a bit more interesting than this. It's currently just using the scene lighting and the environment that's around it. It has this basic material on, which has a bit of reflectance, and that's why we're getting the environment reflected back in it. What we can do is come to the color channel and actually use the power of MoGraph to colorize the MoGraph object. So, we have this hierarchy of clones within clones. And on the first one, I'm going to select Effector and create a random effector, which is right here. And that's going to start moving these around. We're gonna turn that off. And we're interested in the color mode. We want to give these clones a random color, so we're gonna turn that on. And next I'm going to just drop the cloner into this little list that we have here. So we're nice and organized…
