I couldn’t have done it without the support of all you out there pushing me to keep doing what I’m doing and seeing that people are learning a bit of something here on my blog. When I first launched my blog a little over a year ago, I didn’t imagine that it would grow as much as it did, that I would be presenting for MAXON, working for, or having all the other great opportunities I’ve been given along the way. In the coming year there is going to be a ton of new AE and C4D content to go along with the highly anticipated updates for both pieces of software, so stay tuned! Thank You And even if you’re just interested in After Effects and Cinema 4D, they have some AMAZING artists on there sharing their knowledge such as my fellow authors Chris & Trish Meyers, Chad Perkins, Mark Christiansen, and Rob Garrot. For example, they have great courses on how to be a freelancer, how to conduct business meetings, photography, setting up video shoots, and the list goes on and on! Not only that, but they’ve joined up with to add even MORE great content (including multilingual content) to the universe. has a multitude of excellent training content for everyone, not just motion graphics artists. What’s something you’d really like to learn? What’s some workflows you’d like to see me demonstrate? I’d greatly appreciate any and all input you can give! What is ? ![]() I already have tons of tutorial ideas backlogged in my brain! Not to mention a big update to Text Edge FX that should be coming out soon! Feedbackįor those of you who check out my course (or for just those who watch tutorials on my blog), please let me know if there’s anything I can do better, or if there’s anything you’d like to see for any of my next Lynda courses or even my tutorials here on my blog. It means better content for you! I’m going to continue producing my own short Cinema 4D based content here on just like I’ve always been, I’m committed to creating better and better content and my experiences working with the great folks will only make me better at creating training content. My Lynda producer was great in mentoring me in the process of creating professional training content so I’m looking forward to my continued improvements in how I can deliver information and knowledge to you all in the future! What’s This Mean For the Blog? The course I released is almost 2 hours of content, so it was definitely an adjustment coming from doing 5-15 minute tutorials for my blog. It’ll be a challenge, but I’m definitely excited to take it on. Some people have already asked me if I have any more courses in the pipeline, and I’m happy to say that I’m planning on releasing a total of 8 courses this year for Lynda. Being a freelancer, I don’t have the benefit of sitting around a bunch of other artists and being exposed to how other people work day to day and learning from them, so I hope seeing my process is just as beneficial for those of you out there in similar situations. When I watch other people work, I love observing all the little habits and processes someone goes through while working in Cinema 4D or After Effects. ![]() I’ve found that I learn a ton from watching people go through the process of creating a project from start to finish and developing my first course demonstrating how I do it was very interesting because I literally had to write down all my steps, all the things I do to create an animation. ![]() In this course, I’ll show you how to create a network promo bumper for a fictitious TV network using Mograph effectors efficiently so to animate the entire thing, all it takes is two keyframes, along with some workflow tips and tricks along the way. From setting up and animating a project in Cinema 4D, preparing it for render, and importing and putting on the finishing touches inside of After Effects. Unlike my tutorials I host here on my blog which are fairly short, quick blurbs on a certain workflow technique or tip in my Lynda course I’ll show you from start to finish the process I go about creating a finished and polished animation. So you might be thinking, “What’s it about and why should I watch it?” Well, for one, it’s my first project based Cinema 4D course. I am honored to be a part of the Lynda community and getting the opportunity to share my creative process through my courses! What’s It About? You all may have noticed I’ve been quiet on the tutorials front the past couple months, but not without good reason! I’ve been very busy preparing my first in depth project based Cinema 4D course for, and I’m super excited to announce that it has finally released! Check it out here!
