Charles Cassels takes a look at how to create 2D animations in Cinema 4D that have a motion graphics style of look to them. Charles shows the techniques that he used in creating this animation showing how to create the unfolding animation on polygons with set grid array Cloner Objects.
…This tutorial is going to show you how to do 2D animations in Cinema 4D…
Most everything is pretty straight forward here and Charles does a great job of stepping through the animation process with simple objects and keyframes. The “sell” on the look comes from shaders and rendering which Charles touches on briefly.
Charles also provides a 2D animation template in Cinema 4D for the project which you can download here [direct link].
