How do motion graphics artists create those polished animated graphics for channels like ESPN on such short deadlines? They turn to the high-powered toolset in CINEMA 4D. In this course, EJ Hassenfratz shows you how to use those same tools to create your own dynamic, high-energy sports bumper. Learn how to model the basic elements in C4D and add robotic-style movement with the Mograph module, and take a logo from Adobe Illustrator and turn it into a smart, beveled 3D project. Then EJ shows how to combine it all in After Effects, along with a few special effects. This workflow mimics a real post-production environment and allows a more intermediate look at the mograph module and an opportunity to take your motion graphics knowledge to the next level.

Topics include:

Modeling 3D elements with NURBs
Animating with the Shader Effector
Importing artwork from Illustrator with ArtSmart2 and Extruding
Creating and applying textures
Adding camera movement
Lighting the scene
Rendering
Compositing in After Effects
Adding optical flares and motion blur
