A look at building a believable ocean shader in Cinema 4D, from School of Motion’s Joey Korenman who shows how to put together texture channels, shaders, layers and everything else for creating realistic rolling waves, and even shows how to have objects float and bob up and down in the water.

This INCREDIBLY detailed tutorial will walk you through the basics of creating an advanced ocean shader from scratch in Cinema 4D

Joey notes that this tutorial is in response to one of the examples used in Scenery, his one-click seamless background generator for Cinema 4D. Check out the tutorial for creating an ocean shader in cinema 4d and floating objects here.
