Continuing his look at the re-creating breakdowns from a V-Mobile motion graphics spot, Rich Aguilar shows how to re-create the section that has a sphere exploding, with a soft-body tearing type of an effect, almost like a balloon popping.

This is tutorial, we are going to take a look at attractors and effectors within Cinema 4D

Rich recreates this effect by using Cinema 4D’s attractors and effectors, keeping things simple and using Cinema’s Cloth simulation to create a ripping and tearing look to the “popping” sphere. Rich provides some great tips along the way for recreating this setup, and comes pretty close to the original.
