Hi, can you please tell me how to Ease In/Out my keyframe animation in Cinema 4D?? (e.g. I want it to SLOW to a stop). I have v9 and it doesn't do it automatically... can't seem to figure it out.

[MRoSeRiEs]

it'll be really helpful if you explained everything you did with c4d step by step...make another tutorial on that maybe? other then that THANKS

how can i render a 3D text and then use after effects track motion feature?

[Que70]

which seems to take longer in many projects, the 3d animation, or the compositing?

[TVGRAFX]

That depends. In 3D they are UV'ing, lighting, and animation. And in 2D you are fine tuning your look. Both go hand & hand. Just depends on the project, but in most cases you will bounce between the two packages.

in cinema 4d, halcome If I set a keyframe for an object's position on one axis lets say the X axis, it will also set keyframes for the object's Y and Z value, How do I add a keyframe for an object's X value without adding a keyframe for it's Y and Z value?

[TVGRAFX]

• Check on the Compositing Project and selected After Effects+3D+hit save.

• To add color to the Luma matte just add pure white. Or check off the luminance channel on the material settings

• I exported a quicktime mov.

how to render out please help i cnt find a tutorial on this

[CryingWindmillFP]

Nice, What I really want to know is how to render something 3D and then composite it into after effects while still holding its 3D elements. I cant seem to find a tutorial on it

[skyhawk77]

CHEERS, even after many years of using cinema 4D, this is one area that I still have to investigate.

[prestottdesigns]

when i open it in after effects it doesn't show the track matte settings. it just shows all the 3d layer and parenting stuff.

[TVGRAFX]

Try pressing the expand or collapse transform control pane button. It's a small, very small icon located at the bottom left of (composition) your screen. Looks like a circle and a square slightly overlapping each other. When selected you should see the TrkMat next to Mode.

ok, all i want to know is how to render it out, but no one ever tells how.

[TVGRAFX]

In C4D go to render settings cmd (mac) B choose you format & size (ex. 1280x720 QuickTime movie) shift R to render to Picture Viewer. In AE cmd M choose your output settings save to folder sit back and have a drink :)
