Topics Covered: Texturing, Rigid and Soft Body Dynamics, Mograph Fields (including Vertex Maps), Rigging and Animation, Render Engines (with focus on Redshift), and more.

• We were encouraged to incorporate everything we learned in our final project: modeling, rigging, lighting, and animating a :30 commercial based on a mock client brief and storyboard. We were provided with the client’s logo artwork and the VO/music track. I have posted a copy of my version of the final project below.

• Gallery includes rough sketches for some of the models, as well as the initial untextured models created within Cinema 4D.
