Welcome to Ace5 education

Hey Guys,

Ok you should really enjoy this. It has a bunch of really nifty stuff that i discovered through messing with various approaches to building Dynamic cities.

i cover a lot of mograph here, and a bit of xpresso towards the end. And the best part, is you dont really need to do the first 2 tutorials to follow along. Its pretty much self contained with a few little exceptions.

So yeah, get right into it =)

Hey Guys n Girls ( yes apparantly girls watch these tutorials, go figure),

Sorry for the lack of updates recently, just got this massive job pile in. As soon as im finished with it ( 2-3 weeks). I’ll start massing tutorials on heaps of topics. Including continuations of my dynamic building tutorial, i’ll show you how to spread em out, dynamically control height and apply random materials so you can have the same building, but it looks different each time.

Also, got a material introductory class. which shows you hot to make our beloved planet earth, but will be littered with useful tips on making materials.

And got an After effects integration tutorial also in the pipeline. So you know, stay tuned, tell your friends =)

Oh yeah, nearly forgot, go check out this guy: http://www.xsyann.com/ I’ll probably be making some tutorial to show various uses of his plugins. Really super useful stuff he has.

Cheers,
Aleksey

Wana learn how to stick shit onto other shit? Well this is for you then. =)

-Texture projections
-manipulating texture projections
-replacing textures while keeping projection settings
-tiling textures
-apply a material to a certain polygon selection (quickly)

Hey guys, nothing big today, just a some tips for cinema4D users.

- spline interpolation, why shit isn’t smooth sometimes
- hyper nurbs editor/render sub-d’s
- Render LOD in viewport render.
- Layers, getting hierarchies into layers ( yeah, but threesome sounds better than 4some )

Check it out. Its a very noob friendly tutorial. The whole thing is done in Cinema4D. Not the most production efficient technique, but if you’re not using any post package, good way to add DOF.

Also covers getting curves out of illustrator and into Cinema.

First Exclusive tutorial for Ace5 Education! I’ll teach about the camera object in cinema, and how to use it efficiently.

Hey Guys a more advanced tutorial this time. It’s all about using xpresso and cloners together to assemble dynamic assets.

Hello peoples!

I’ve decided to start this site in order to share my knowledge on Cinema4D. I already have a couple of tutorials published in cgtuts+. I will be publishing tutorials here on a more regular basis.

I’ll probably make an introductory video later, but for now enjoy the tutorials that are already here, and send me suggestion through the contact form.

If you notice anything stuffing up on the website, also go ahead and email me, since im new to this whole website managing thing. And wordpress isn’t being super co-operative =)

Learn How to use xpresso in Cinema4D. It will make your life better =)

Head over to cgtuts+ to check it out: http://cg.tutsplus.com/tutorials/maxon-cinema-4d/an-introduction-to-xpresso-in-cinema-4d/

This tutorial is a relatively quick overview of setting up a scene with a rigged animated object in Cinema4D. Although it should be simple to follow along to anyone with a basic knowledge of Cinema 4D, this tutorial is mainly aimed at artists migrating to Cinema4D from another package. It quickly and concisely demonstrates how to use the basic modeling tools, set up a rig with bones, use constraints, change the type of keyframes, use the auto keyframe tool, clean up keyframes, work with the time line, set up lights, set up materials, apply the materials to objects and render out an animation. Everything you need to quickly get into Cinema4D.

You can watch the tutorial over at cgtuts+ http://cg.tutsplus.com/tutorials/maxon-cinema-4d/create-a-jumping-lamp-animation-in-c4d-day-1/

A quick tutorial on how to organize your objects to make working with them easier. The balls project isn’t going anymore, so you can ignore that. But the concepts are still useful.

Traffic lights are a little feature of Cinema 4D that allow you to hide and unhide objects. This Quick Tip will teach you some lesser known methods of using them to speed up your workflow..

A quick start guide to Cinema4D here I do exactly what the title says, I give you a quickstart in Cinema4D. Head over to CGtuts, if you want to download the tutorial as a video file to watch on your computer: http://cg.tutsplus.com/tutorials/maxon-cinema-4d/a-quick-start-guide-to-cinema-4d/
