We focus on compositing options and multipass workflows within Arnold and Cinema 4D. We explore creative and advanced ways to generate layer masks by using several nodes such as ao, shading state nodes and normal information.Ĭlass 6: Compositing options and multipass workflows

We step it up a notch and take a look at shader layering with the unique C4DtoA shader Network. We also take a look at some other shaders that comes shipped with arnold.Ĭlass 5: Shader layering with the unique C4DtoA shader Netw To do this we complete shading of an entire lego technics airplane scene. We explore the important arnold standard shader. We look at the art of sampling and how to make decisions about overrides, ray depth, diagnostics and other important render settings. We discuss all the important aspects of the render settings in C4DtoA.

We take a look at all of the different light types that comes shipped with Arnold for Cinema 4D. We look at everything related to lighting inside Arnold. After that we quickly get you comfortable using Arnold by completing a short and simple chess scene project from beginning to end. We discuss some important aspects to understand about Arnold. We introduce you to the Arnold Render Engine inside Cinema 4D. In recent years he has been an active beta tester for companies like Maxon and Solidangle.Ĭlass 1: Arnold Render Engine inside Cinema 4D He has built dozens of proprietary plugins and pipeline tools for different Companies for both 3D and 2D applications. Next to CGI his background involved several years of programming. For brands like Philips, Pioneer, MTV, Eneco, Schiphol Airport, Samsung and Toyota. He has worked on many national and international campaigns. Besides doing CGI, Da Costa is also responsible for CGI related R&D. Lukkien is a multimedia company with a little over 200 employees. Da Costa is currently working as a CGI artist and TD at Lukkien. And at the end of this course you should feel comfortable taking on any project with Cinema 4D and the Arnold render engine. We will also shortly discuss some compositing aspects of C4DtoA. We will discuss ways in which we can reduce rendertimes and how to adopt an efficient workflow with Arnold. We will look at several technical and creative aspects of shading, lighting and rendering with Arnold. This course will demonstrate all the fundamentals about working with the Arnold Render Engine inside C4D. Da Costa will get you up and running with Arnold for Cinema 4D.
