iPhone 4 + Blender = iDust - More fun with Xplode and MoDynamics

[primarymusicusa]

Not like an accordian ... more just lifting up and the 5 individual pannels following a rail system up to a resting place parallel with ceiling. tried to align a cloner object with a spline with no success ... then I "spline wrapped" 5 individual pannels with a spline and offesetting them with some success. I just know there must be an easier way that I haven't discovered yet.

Again thank you for your help ...

[primarymusicusa]

5 panel door as it folds into the ceiling ... Mograph? Or should u try to rig it?

[ShepperdOneill]

@primarymusicusa Does it fold like an accordion? Any chance of taking a screen grab?

[primarymusicusa]

working on modeling a garage door opening and closing... seems simple, yet having a hard time ... seems like lots of ways to go about it ... any advice which direction I should go?

Your help is always greatly appreciated!

[ShepperdOneill]

@primarymusicusa What kind of garage door? One that bends as it goes up, or a solid 1-piece door?

[suernoep]

Very nice Animation!!

iwaste my time

[Philipracer]

The eve it terrible everything about eve is terrible it battery sucks the screen sucks the camera is a piece of shit

[TheFXGuy]

I thought the Evo was the iPhone killer?

[Charrasca]

INCREDIBLE!!!!

[DrHouse2004]

Very good 3D animation test!!

[primarymusicusa]

How loaded is your computer ... my Mac is a quad-core with 8 gigs ram ... to do stuff like yours ... what do I need? Your work is very impressive.

[ShepperdOneill]

@primarymusicusa Im using a dual quad (8-core), 4 gigs ram. You shouldnt have any trouble doing this type of work.

[primarymusicusa]

do you do this for a living? I do and I suck at c4d! or should I say ... just a beginer!

[ShepperdOneill]

@primarymusicusa Yeah. Been doing this for about 1 1/2 years now for a living. But ive got about 5 years experience with C4D. It was mainly a hobby at first.

[primarymusicusa]

seriously, you need to do a tutorial! I hope you're making good money doing this!

[ShepperdOneill]

@primarymusicusa Perhaps ill make a tutorial soon. Got to find some time.

[Jokerofskyarchy]

That was sick man! Will you please make some kind of tutorial on Xploce and MoDynamics?

♥♪

[ShepperdOneill]

@Jokerofskyarchy Perhaps ill do one in later. I'll have to find some time.

[svtcontour]

That was very cool!

[ShepperdOneill]

@svtcontour Thanks!

[troy2062]

That was an iPhone 4 casing. No internals, lol. xD

Nice video!

[ShepperdOneill]

@troy2062 Thanks! Yeah, I didnt have time to model the internals. Would have probably looked even better with them.

[woodswork]

@Chronos014 I think I hate him aswell

[Remoth000]

That was pretty sweet. only critique I have is that the iphone "shattered" when it touched the blade. that xplode plugin is pretty awesome...

[ShepperdOneill]

@Remoth000 Yeah, right now im not sure if Cinema 4D has a way of keeping the pieces together while only allowing the parts in contact with the blades to break off.

I think 3DS Max and Maya has a way of doing this, but C4D just isnt quite there yet... at least that I know of.

Now you've got me curious.... looks like ive got a new idea for my next experiment. lol

[Remoth000]

@ShepperdOneill haha, if you can pull it off, that would be amazing. I would love to see it.

[MrLaurixxxx]

@ShepperdOneill Its possible to do the sequenced shattering .I think you should starrt the destruction with polyFX and then trigger the xplosion.Its verry easy to move polyFX during the animation.Animation is great.I liked it.

[MrLaurixxxx]

@ShepperdOneill Its a bit strange.When you removed it the blade stayed on the motor.That does what mean? :) There is no bottom? :)

[ShepperdOneill]

@MrLaurixxxx Yes, you're right. That was a mistake on my part. The blades were not linked to the glass top. Not a big deal though....  It can be fixed easily.
