Create 3D rotating objects with CC Cylinder in After Effects
Hi Alan, thank you very much for your tutorial. Saved my ass since I just could`t figure out how to get this velvet look! Simple and clear
thanks for this man! straight to the point :)
this is awesome. Where did you get the shape from? did you make that yourself?
The shapes were already made for the event by a graphic designer :)
Hi Alan! Thanks for this tutorial. I’m having an issue with stacking materials: even after applying opacity and splitting color, it always takes my first tag attribute and doesn’t add it to the final render preview. Thanks in advance!
Hi , this is Sazzad rafiz a motion graphic designer and mid junior 3D artist. recently i would like to move to Hong Kong for the job. hows the environment in hongkong for working ? is there job opportunity? please try to make a video so everyone would know
Thank you for creating this tutorial! Im a Blender user trying to move to Cinema4D for Motion Graphic but there's not too many video tutorials for beginners for cinema 4d specially when it comes to texturing on Redshift!
how can i add dispersion on reflections of photons?
thanks for your nice words!
Can we make mask on individual sticker separately for post production
@@HammadKhan-po4yw try puzzle matte with material ID
not working with the latest version of redshift.
thank you alan for this insight
Wow, exactly what i was looking for. You're the only one that uploaded a helpful video on this swirrel effect. Thank you so much!
Thank you soooo soo much, I was so struggling and watched many videos but this was so simple and short now - PERFECT!
You have high quality content💙💙! Thanks, it's interesting and just looks good. Sadly so few people see it...
Hi Alan do you have course on red shift nodes?
Bro thinks 12 hours a day is a lot of work 😂
Working 12 hour+ days continuously is not something to brag about or to be proud of. It just means you are inefficient and haven’t got the right systems in place.
@@AlanPun2 😂😂 and that's why they lose
12 hours seems like a normal amount of time when you're passionate about research but still have to get results. It can be as long as 16
Thank for the best tutorial!!! You helped me a lot
Hello! Thanks for your tutorial ! I have a questio, I already have the scene, vase, texture finished, but Idk how I can animate it, just a simple animation, rotate the vase, can you explain?
Thank you so much!
Really fantastic tutorial. Helped me a lot. I ran into one issue running the latest C4D with RS (C4D 2025 with RS 2025.0.2) when I got to the seven sticker limit. I created new geometry, added an invisitble shader but any new stickers applied would add a large dark patch around the sticker. Like the opacity was not being read correctly and the sticker below was being burnt in. A quick fix I found was to adjust the "Custom Gama" found below the colour space on the opacity node. I cranked it from 1 way up to 5 and the shadowing disappeared. Just in case it helps anyone else.
Realy useful 👌
I didn’t know this technique existed! Very inspiring 😊
great! thanks for this! really happy to see support for the classic way of adding stickers in c4d. quick tip: if you ctrl+drag the material tag on the object, you can copy it. Then you can drag a new material on top of this copied tag. the sticker will be replaced by the new material, and you don't have to manually change all the settings.
I think its broken at the moment, im not sure if its the new cinema or new redshift.
Never stop ❤
I think its broken on the newest cinema and redshift... the elpha just cuts through the object and you cant turn off tiling...
You just gave an answer to my mystery. Gracias 👏
what keyboard do you use? i need the name of model
Great advices there man, I totally agree with the 'say yes before you're ready' hahaha putting yourself in situations where you have no choice but finish what you started is truly the best way to learn something. great channel man, keep it up !
This channel rules!!
Great advice. Often success comes from jumping into the fire, and learning on the go.
🔥🔥🔥
Great Video , Thank you Alan❤️🙌
Great tips, thanks! How much should I charge my clients? There are always some freelancers who will do the job for a fraction of the cost, like 15x less. For example, many freelancers from India offer very lower rates. I guess becoming well known is the only way to secure a stable income. Unfortunately in this day and age, your 'name' is everything. I feel incredibly demotivated.
Not true, I’m not well known and I support myself doing this living in one of the most expensive cities in the world. It comes down to how you communicate your value and why you’re different.
@@AlanPun2 I guess you're right, I don't have much experience as a freelancer. I was working with a studios which was fine, but really exhausting. I appreciate this kind of videos, really good channel Alan, thanks.
How long have you been in the motion designing field??
About 3 years
Ditch the motion design videos or put them on a different channel. You are very talented at making life style vlog type videos. You should definitely do that more.
Thank you!
thanks
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!
