C4D PolyFx and Fields to Reform or Reveal Object and Logo - Cinema 4D Mograph
Reverse Tutorial of Disintegrating Objects
In this tutorial, Kobe demonstrates how to reverse the disintegration effect using the Poly Effects and Mograph Effect. He explains how to use fields to control when to trigger animation.
Creating a New Scene
- Copy and paste the X from the previous scene.
- Delete the Poly Effect and start afresh.
- Add Plane Effector and set it to effect.
- Use a Spherical Field or any other field to subtract from our original position.
Using Fields to Control Animation
- Add Solid Modifier before Freeze Layer.
- Use Freeze Layer to freeze position.
- Use Spherical Field with Subtract mode to reveal object.
Conclusion
Kobe shows how he reversed his disintegration effect by using fields in Cinema 4D. He explains that sometimes you might not want the whole thing to animate straight away, so you can trigger it using fields.
Revealing Text Animation
In this section, the speaker demonstrates how to use the grow effect to reveal text using a curve modifier. They also show how to add random and time effects to the animation.
Using Curve Modifier to Reveal Text
- Make circuit field smaller and move it right at the tip.
- Use curve modifier to make text grow.
- Hit play to reveal text.
Adding Random Effect
- Add random effector for polyface.
- Add rotation and scale in random position.
- Use spherical fill set to subtract with freeze set to average and auto-update.
Adding Time Effect
- Copy plane effector into time effector.
- Set timer object in mograph effector for polyfix.
- Use same steps as before with freeze set to average and auto-update.
Adding Delay Effect
- Add delay effect on top of mushroom code for extra smoothness.
Introduction
In this section, the speaker introduces the tutorial and explains how to create a spherical field that touches an object.
Creating a Spherical Field
- The speaker refreshes the scene and moves the spherical field so that it touches the object.
- They hit play to see how it looks.
Car Reveal Tutorial
In this section, the speaker discusses how they used a similar technique to create a car reveal effect.
Using Poly Effects on a Car Model
- The speaker brought in a car model and added poly effects to create a car reveal effect.
- The polygons are not detailed enough, but with more time, someone could create a nice car review using this technique.
- This was not planned; the speaker was just testing out how the effect would look on something else.
Conclusion
In this section, the speaker concludes the tutorial and thanks viewers for watching.
Final Thoughts
- The speaker thanks viewers for watching and encourages them to subscribe, like, and share their content.
- They express happiness with how everything turned out.
- The video ends with a final thank you from the speaker.
