Lynda.com: CINEMA 4D and After Effects Integration

Course Description: Chris Meyer—a long-time user of both programs—explains how to move 3D worlds from Maxon's CINEMA 4D into Adobe's After Effects and add additional 3D elements that blend perfectly. Chris shows how to transfer 3D cameras, lights, and position data from CINEMA 4D to After Effects; create track mattes to composite new elements into the middle of a scene; and take advantage of multi-pass rendering to quickly remix and even recolor lights, shadows, reflections, and more. Paced comfortably for beginners, this course also reveals numerous advanced tricks and techniques, such as the use of blending modes and how to cast shadows from new 3D layers in After Effects onto rendered 3D elements from CINEMA 4D. Exercise files accompany this course.

Topics Include:
# Locating objects for export from Cinema 4D
# Adding layers to a composition after importing into After Effects
# Separating lights in Cinema 4D and remixing in After Effects
# Understanding the problems with shadows during integration
# Refining 3D shadows in After Effects
