Demystifying Post Production: Wonderful World of Particles Part 1 of 4

Join the Maxon Training Team every Monday in July as we explore a wide variety of tools for creating particles in postproduction, featuring Cinema 4D, Redshift, XParticles, After Effects, Particular, Houdini, and Unreal Engine.

We'll cover a brief history of particles, explore workflows for different situations, show unconventional creative treatments, and help you transfer your particle knowledge across multiple tools.

Week 1
Master Trainer and particle expert Lionel Vicidomini kicks off the series by looking at the variety of methods you can use natively in Cinema 4D to create and manipulate particles, including standard particles, forcefield, particles on a spline, and clever ways to use the MoGraph tools. You'll see that Cinema 4D is a very capable tool for creating amazing scenes of dancing particles!
