Automating certain tasks in an animation is relevant especially when animation may need to repeat.
Creating keyframes for the same property over and over not only takes up time, it is also not very efficient. It is with that in mind that Matthew Pearson takes a look at creating a neon sign in Cinema 4D, that will be turning on and off in sequence.
how to create a simple neon light including a the neon glowing material and then in part two we’ll go through an animate the light sequence using xpresso and C.O.F.F.E.E
Matthew walks through the process of modeling the neon that will be used, and provides some tips for getting the best results for the end result. Using Xpresso to handle the animation of the neon, Matthew demonstrates how beneficial scripting an animation like this can be.
