SKATE-PARK Animations (2nd September)
Following a wonderful tutorial by YouTube Channel, MOBOX, my first foray into Cinema 4D was recreating a skateboard in a half-pipe animation. While I had some modelling experience with 3DS Max prior, this tutorial provided great insight into the modelling tools of Cinema 4D. Additionally, it covered the basics of animating scenes, something that I had never done before. The GIF below was my final result by the end of the tutorial.
Building upon what I had learned, I wanted to try creating my own models and animations, to ensure that I could put what I'd learned into practice. Building on the skate-park theme, I proceeded to create two additional animations, complete with their own models.
While there is certainly room for improvement, I was pleased with what I was able to create in just two days, with a software that I had never used before. I particularly enjoy the isometric view of the scene along with the pastel-like colours - I can definitely see myself doing more things with this aesthetic!

LOW Poly Car (9th September)
I've really been enjoying the modelling process in Cinema 4D. I wanted to practise this further by creating some additional models, focusing again on the low-poly, isometric appearance. I created this car model in about 5 hours, discovering many new modelling tools that made the process easier; particularly the line-cut tool!
I then created a short, looping animation, to get a better understanding of the tools and process. Overall, I was really pleased with how this turned out and I'm looking forward to trying out some more things!
