Creating 3D Compositions in Cinema 4D

Start the course by getting to know Francisco, his career as an industrial designer, his incursion into illustration, and how he began combining both in his 3D illustrations. Then, he shares with you his main influences.

Learn how to find inspiration and conceptualize ideas for your final project. Create a sketch and bring it into Cinema 4D, where you will learn the main tools and how to customize your work environment.

Discover how to move your scene within the software and learn how to give volume and shape to objects. Create your composition by modeling the centerpiece in 3D and working on the details.

Using OctaneRender (or the render engine of your choice), discover how to create materials and textures that will help you inject life and color into your scene. See different lighting schemes and how to set up Octane's parameters. From there, move on to rendering your final 3D illustration.

Add a few finishing touches to your project to achieve an eye-catching and professional result, post-producing your images in Adobe Photoshop. Finally, see how to present your project, either in your portfolio or on social media.
