Résumé
Animators who work in 3D have found a lot to like in Maxon Cinema 4D : fast rendering speed, high image quality, and relatively low hardware requirements (it can run on Windows 98 and Macintosh Power PCs). What they haven't found are many useful books to help them learn the program. That's where Maxon Cinema 4D 7 comes in. It's the professional's guide to the latest version of Cinema 4D.
Longtime Cinema 4D users upgrading from older versions as well as those designers and animators who are new to the program will find a multitude of valuable techniques, including using SLA shaders, programming custom enhancements, and optimizing workflow and productivity. This book covers Cinema 4D XL 7, as well as the companion 3D paint program, BodyPaint 3D.
