3D Modeling from the Ground Up
Cinema 4D is the standard tool for 3D graphics in broadcast, film, and motion design. This course teaches you the core tools by walking through real workflow: starting with the interface and what 3D objects actually are, then building models using splines, extrusion, sweeping, and lathing. You'll work with Nurbs, sculpting tools like the Knife and Bevel, learn how to light and texture models, and animate them. The instructor brings hands-on production experience—he uses Cinema 4D daily for TV, film, and commercial work—so you're learning what actually matters in practice. The course includes working files so you can follow along exactly, and wraps up with a capstone project building a 3D robot. By the end, you'll have both the technical foundation and confidence to create your own models.
