NAB 2012 Rewind - Dave Glanz: 2D/3D pipeline




Cineversity Live! show

Summary: See how CINEMA 4D's tools and 2D/3D workflow enable motion designers to focus less on busy-work and more on creative design as David Glanz breaks-down projects for the American Film Institute, Discovery and History Channel. In this presentation, Dave demonstrates how he used Lathe NURBS, Dynamics and Random Effector deformation in a Dunkin' Donuts ad for Discovery. Next, Dave demonstrates how he used CINEMA 4D's Cloth to simulate a deflating hot air balloon in an end page for Planet Green. Dave shows how he used Dynamics, the Hinge Connector and dynamic forces to simulate a truck exhaust pipe in an end page for Discovery's World's Toughest Truckers. In a piece for History's Modern Marvels, Dave uses CINEMA 4D's Rigid-body Dynamics with Hinged Connectors and Springs to represent the mechanism of a coin operated machine. In another piece for Modern Marvels, Dave makes use of Soft-body dynamics to simulate bags of rice falling on a hinged dynamic scale. Finally Dave demonstrates how he created a piece for AFI's Silver Docs festival.
