Cinema 4D Intermediate

Cinema 4D has a very wide range of uses for creating both still images for print & web along with animation suitable for TV or film. Common uses include visualisations for architecture, products and interiors.

Cinema 4D also has a firm standing in the medical and special effects arena due to it’s tight Adobe integration. This course is designed for those who already use another 3D package or have gone through some tutorials by themselves.
