Infinite Crash using Cinema 4D

Everyone as a kid was fascinated by crash test footage and those poor crash test dummies. Well, now you can inflict misery on crash dummies of your very own! This class will guide you through rigging a dynamic ragdoll in Cinema4D and advanced tips for setting up the car too, so that it has a very accurate (and breakable!) rigid body structure. You will also learn how to optimise your dynamic scene so the dynamic simulations are reliable and realistic, without any glitches.

Another fundamental part of the masterclass is setting up a repeatable scene, without compromising the randomness of the dynamic collisions, the video will seamlessly loop. You will also use After Effects to very simply help achieve this.These animations are perfect for engaging instagram videos and gifs.

Motion Design School is a Latvia-based online school focused entirely on motion graphics and character animation, primarily using Adobe After Effects, Cinema 4D, and the broader 2D/3D animation toolchain. They are one of the largest dedicated motion-design education brands online, with a multi-thousand-student community.

The CourseFlix listing carries twelve Motion Design School courses spanning character animation, After Effects scripting, 3D for motion designers, and the production craft around generating broadcast-quality motion-design work. Material is paid and aimed at designers and motion artists building professional-grade animation skills rather than dabbling in basic After Effects edits.
