Project planning - CINEMA 4D Tutorial
From the course: Learning Cinema 4D R20
Project planning
- [Instructor] We're going to create a simple animation based on this logo for kinetECO. And we'll cover some key techniques to get you started in Cinema4D. So you've got this logo here, and we've got some brand colors as well. And this will help us out when we come to create materials for this logo. So at this stage, we could start to think about getting some ideas down, and thinking about how elements are going to move. I can see maybe that these little bits here should grow out. And we'd have all happening sequentially. So we want to think about how we can animate that growth. And then we wanted to sort of stagger the key frames as well so that we've got this kind of wave happening. So with the actual words, I don't think we need to do too much with it, but we do want to kind of give it a 3D representation. So we can think about if we just turn to a sketch layer that I've got here, how these words could be given depth and dimension. And we can certainly extrude them, rotate them…
