Nice video! Can I ask how much a graphic designer avarage salary there? Thx ✌️
thank you, you`re right
🙌
thank you! I really loved the short format of the video! it was without clickbaits and fake promises and you delivered your knowledge in a structured and quick manner, super useful 👏
Thank you Julia :)

❤
awesome tutorial.
I wish I could do internship with you. I am completing the ben marriot course, while building a portfolio and gathering bit and pieces from UA-cam.
hey! great work!! can you elaborate on the process on after effects after scanning?
Which part in particular?
Hi Alan I don’t see the email? I’d like to send in my portfolio 💼
As an old Cinema 4D user, I love your tutorials! Just straight to the point, no faffin about and no expensive plugins!
thank you!
Hey brother plz make a playlist for c4d beginner i dont lnow c4d plz help i really wana to follow your tutorial
Hey Alan, thanks for the tutorial. How can we drive the animation directly in the shader, for example to start frame 1 of the animation at the frame 50 in C4D ? Couldn't find any keyframe placeholder for that
I'm sure there's a way, maybe with xpresso, but a quick fix would be just to adjust the shader animation itself in After Effects to suit your needs.
Bro made my life easy ❤❤❤
Wow!!!! The exact content I have been looking for!!! Thank you so much!
The best tutorial I've seen in a long time. Thanks
Quite a compliment, thanks Jon!
This aligns with what I've experienced. Been working on a large project for a big tech company (who is doing things in the AI space), and even when the content was speaking to Generative AI the creative director told us not to use any AI imagery because it looks cheap
hilarious
Thank you very much!
You're welcome!
What font did you use for intro if you dont mind me asking? Thanks!
IBM
Really well done tutorial! I can see this technigue being used to really put some personality on modelled assets. I have a question though, me not being a Redshift user what would the equivalent for "Color Splitter" be in Octane? Any idea?
I don’t use Octane but if someone reads this and knows please comment!
@@AlanPun2 No problem! Thanks Alan! Keep up the fantastic content.
There is no need for a color splitter in Octane. Just connect the texture to the diffuse and opacity,and in opacity change Both Border Mode ti Black color. it will be enough, if there is any problem I can help you.
@@IlkinAbbaszadeh This here is spot on advice. I managed to figure it out in the meantime but it's exactly what setting you play with. Thanks for your input and willingess to assist me!
Does this work, if the base texture has displacement on it? And ist there a trick to get the transparency in the editor preview? It seems to work if you feed in a greyscale image for the alpha channel, but not with the color splitter…..
I don't see why it wouldn't work with displacement on base material, but I haven't tried yet!
I forgot to try it, too today. Just wasn‘t sure if the displacement influences the material on top as well….
good stuff, but for some reason at around 7:25 mark, I'm unable to get the matte cutout using "color layer" 🤔
Can you send me a screenshot on IG?
This actually just helped me out with my job, thank you so much
Glad I could help Nina!
AMAZING
Thanks!
Thanks alan, love this tutorial.
Very welcome Muhamad!
Wow.. I've never had a video mention before. Thanks so much Alan, you're a legend!! Great tutorial.
thanks for the idea!
Привет! У меня у одного материалы не смешиваются? Если ставишь стикер, то базовый цвет объекта слетает :`(

Thanks Alan!
welcome Andres!
9:20 you can just right click on every parameter you want to know more about and open the help menu that way
You learn something everyday! Thank you!
im in the latest versio, i do exactly what you do and it alpha's out the whole object just leaving the text.. like, i have red layer underneath and the object is now transparent with just the text layer.. any thoughts?
Can you send some screenshots to my IG? Node editor + renderview
did u find a solution? I have a same problem(
looks like Gzhel)
So nice to mix up the techniques!
For sure Hal :)
Sir cinema 4d beginners video like redshift you do plz sir
Hey Alan, amazing tutorial man, well done! One thing I cannot find on UA-cam is how to make a decal that comes in from Photoshop, turn to chrome? For example, if you wanted your Nike logo to be shiny metai with some roughness in as well, is there a way that you can think of to do that?
You would plug the texture alpha channel (colour splitter) node into a chrome material. Maybe I’ll make a tutorial in the future
@@AlanPun2 That would be so helpful man
here you go: ua-cam.com/video/DIp2zvviKh4/v-deo.html
Great tutorial. I only have a question. I used your technique to add a label. All works fine except that I have something like a specular label reversed on the back. Any suggestion?
send me a screenshot on IG :)
very good tutorial! There was also an expression that made the cc cylinder react to a 3D camera, what was it? thanks so much!
I believe that if you just continue in that pace you inevitably will go big with it, lots of sense of taste on each step and very bright mind.
nicest thing someone said to me all week! thank you!
great tutorial, keep up the great work!
thanks Josh!
Plz continue sir c4d zero to hero series plz sir i beg you no one have good quality tutorial plz sir a beg from subscriber plz don't ignore me sir♥️

Thanks for sharing
My pleasure
That's amazing!
Thanks!

I find a lot of architects have impeccable taste in design.
agreed
Спасибо огромное!!!!
Its seems like its more over for them based on their current PR
I enjoy your hopeful take on it and offering solutions to artists for working with AI, instead of the common ‘you’re all screwed’
Thanks Charlotte!
Also.... a bit of a weird weird example: the McDonalds burgers... what a crap quality... and yes, it is one of the largest companies.... so true, AI will start to produce a lot of crap quality and there is a large audience for that. But the true burger shops, that create a good proper burger, are still around. And they will always be there. With customers that appreciate quality over 'speed and cost'
I see your point, AI in the hands of a bad director will still be bad. AI will be the equivalent of owning your own multi-million dollar VFX team, but as we see in mainstream cinema, that does not guarantee success.
"A.I. will not take over your job, the people that use A.I. will...."
haha true, true!
It’s absolutely incorrect to compare handmade furniture & mass market --> and video generation. Because in the first case we have a material object in the real world, where you can notice the difference between expensive handmade materials and mass production. In the virtual world, however, we will soon not see this difference between AI and a human. Because they will be indistinguishable. There is no difference, whether the video is created by AI or a human, because the final format of this work will be - a video in a digital environment.
They may be indistinguishable, but HOW it was made matters a lot. For example, think about the value of a real Picasso vs an identical replica done by a skilled fraudster. One is priceless, and the other worthless. My thinking is that in the future, brands will make the extra effort into marketing how 'non-AI' their videos are. Kinda like how the new Top Gun movie & Oppenheimer heavily marketed how they did everything non-CGI (which eventually was not true) - perhaps that's a better analogy to have made in the video than furniture.
@@AlanPun2 You are comparing objects from the material world and the digital world again :) If you take an original work from NFT and then make a copy of it (Ctrl + C … Ctrl + V), apart from the registry entry that the first work is original, there will be no more value and difference. And I would speak carefully about the value of NFT. However, in any case, do not despair, these are all tools that will ultimately save us all time.
I hope you're right but I feel for the vast majority of artists they will just have to change careers. There is only so much work an Apple could give out, so you'll have a few famous/established people getting work while the rest will have to compete with AI and eventually lose. As much as I would like to think people value quality, they value cost even more.
I think so too. I think for the vast majority if they want to stay in the industry they may have to transition to more of a pre-production role. Since production will be done by AI, someone will still need to come up with the script, storyboards, picking art-style, etc
Strongly suggest you wait till you get your hands on Sora before you lose hope. As someone who works with ML regularly I can tell you that these outcomes are great for pointed demos because the models are specifically trained on a small subset of subjects (which takes a vast amount of pre-processing and $$$). However, generalized, they don't do such a great job, especially with video because predicting subsequent frames for video is not something current ML models do very well. It's relatively easy to do predictive work with text, because there's a limited set of words. But with real world pixels, there's an explosion of possibilities and the predictive power of AI fails there. FYI these models don't understand physics - they are merely reproducing frame variations of frames they've already been trained on. It's still extremely impressive but not as ground-breaking as people are making it out to be.
Thanks @@alankarmisra , do you anticipate that these downsides will eventually get ironed out due to the exponential growth of this field?
And you quote Vonnegut! S5 is like my favorite novel ever :P
He's one of my favs too!
