You covered a lot of stuff here! Nice tutorial :)
***** Indeed, thanks for the support!
VinhSon, Im working on R16 , for the Specular , the mode is set in plastic.... can't find it in R16 .... do you know where that function went or does it just default to plastic. Thanks
I recommend reducing the Reflection Deoth to 1. This way you get rid of most unnecessary Reflections, which also reduces the Rendertime drastically (40-50 Seconds instead of 120 Seconds for 1 Frame). Also reducing the Ray length can help to reduce the Rendertime w/out any flaws in the Image.
Hey Janis, thanks for the tip! but where do I find the reflection dof?
I think he means Reflection Depth and you find that in Render Settings > Options.
Thanks a lot
I don ´t know if it help, but some people have som problems witch opening exr files in one sequence :)
I render project with 160 frames. for each i ahve one EXR file. It means 160 EXR files. In AAE choose import multiple files ( crtl+alt+I) and choose all EXR files. Before hit open. look at the left down corner. You should have there " Open EXR Sequence" check it and you hvae one EXR sequence from 160 exr files. I hope i helped to someone :) anyway Great tutorial
+MK-Graphics Thanks man, it's very helpful for me ! :)
Very nice, Do u use MacBook air or Pro ? Or another MAC product ? It's the best way
IЯΟΛ† I have a MacBook Pro, but use my PC (Hackintosh) for these recordings.
Yy, it's pretty smooth and clean, I have really big problems on Windows :( VinhSon Nguyen
can you please link the texture in the discretion? thanks!
can u put the downloadlink in desc please :D
Before I watch this, I will make an educated guess that you will be using mo graph, lets see!
Kobey Rafferty *table flip* you're right. Exit the video now ;)
when I'M going to import them in ae i get 6 .exr comps ?!
edit: I also cant save the multilayer file in c4d
is it possible to do this without the cloner?
It might be, but it would be a ton of work to copy and align perfectly that amount of objects...
I have Cinema 4d r17 where is reflection on there?
At the bottom?
dude please help what i do doing wrong? 25min to render a single frame

+Cheetah Rawr increase the render frames or buy a better processor
Mσgdäηs
bro i beg you can you please help me, i render 480 frames in 16hours, trust me if i could buy a better processor, I would, that is not the point. The problem is that when i try to import the exr files, AE doesn't import them into a single sequence instead it imports them into a multi sequence, one sequence per multi pass effect (shadows,ambient,diffuse,etc). So i don't know how to combine them all together. I am stuck...a bit disapointed in this tutorial, he skips the steps about importing the files into AE...i mean of course I'm new to editing...but aren't tutorials targeted to an audience that is learning about the softwares? why skip such an important step, damn it.
+Cheetah Rawr than may be try to save the 3D data part as a aec file. you can find it in the save tag in the render manager. That works for me
Mσgdäηs i will try that. Not sure sure what exactly op did to import those files, as for me, i followed every step of the tutorial and then got stuck, thanks again for the reply and your time. Wish he could me make it more clearer for us new dumb people.
Movies don't render in half an hour. I have a way better processor than yours (no jeer) and it takes really long to render a frame :)
Great Tutorial! I didn't see the link to the texture in the description though.
thank you for amazing tutorial!
In the After Effects import part, where does the illumination come from? Should there be a multipass of Global Illumination from C4D?
Its a shame that you don´t show your "tinkering arround" cause it looks like such a cool tut. I found it tough to get the lights right and the aliasing, .
When I opened it on after effects hexagons are not glossy like yours, in fact pretty much looks like crap and I followed your tutorial to the line.
Gonna try to get that glossy look of yours but I´m new to this.
Any help?
Okay so I did this for a website background. Except I didn’t animate it so just modeled it and Rendered following the steps you showed. So when I do go into after effects in the xtractor I don’t get the option of different layers in the drop down. So how would I go about editing each different later like you did ? More Specifically I would just like to edit the glow on after effects.
Say you are comping in some chromakeyed video in this. Would changing the workspace to sRGB have an effect on the video? Would one need to use the cineon converter or something similar?
I am definitely no pro but you should create your projects in 4k so they are future proof. Speed and render times can sometimes be unbearable but I'd think it would help you in the long run :)

Hey for your wavelength spectrum tutorial is it possible to change my song after finishing everything?
You really have much after effect plugin :-) Nice tutorial anyways, Liked :D
Where is the texture from DeviantArt you said you were gonna link in the desription?
0.75 glow. Even after effects said WTF man!
thna you very much. someone requested some vaporwave stuff but wanted to go a different route. it came out great really appreciate the help
Thanks man for a really cool tutorial! Interesting you export at 32 bit, do you find it makes a difference? :)
Superb tutorial! I had no idea you could control the depth pass through the cameras dof settings. That'll be usefull, I've been looking for a sollution to that. Now I feel stupid lol :D
JamZamDesigns DoF in Cinema 4D has always been meh for me, so I feel ya man!
wow, your Amazing man, You make my day today... Thank you for Tutorial...
just amazing !!! Great job with this tutorial, love your approach to teaching, to the point and understandable. Just gotta keep up ,, it's bit quick :) Thanks for sharing your amazing talent !!!
Camille Marquez Thanks for the in-depth feedback, it really helps me improve on the things that work and don't :) Thanks for the support!
Thanks thanks thanks! Never before knew how to work with linear space in after effects with my C4D renders. Thanks for help me get out of the shadows!
Glad you found the video somewhat useful!
THANK YOU! Really great tutorial
I can't see Multipass layers in after effects with Extractor R though I saved in OpenEXR
Did you change your workspace before?
Very Cool tutorial and very helpful I've been looking for something like this for the longest
Azure Studios Glad I could be useful man!
this video deserved more view. awesome tutorial
One question: After rendering out the animation you only got this one single file, that you added in After Effects? So I won't get for every frame about 7 or 8 pictures? This would be great :D
Ladcraft Correct. The OpenEXR file is special in that it holds pass data all in 1 file. You can extract different passes out of it, but everything is 1 file per frame.
Ok, thanks! :)
+Ladcraft can you help me please? i get a bunch of exr files for all the multi passes effects. When i try to import in after effects it wont allow me to import all the files as one sequence, instead i get a multi sequence option which i tried and i end up with 8 different sequences , one for each of the effects. Wish this was a proper tutorial. It took me 16hours to render 480frames and now i'm stuck/
+Cheetah Rawr Hm when I tried I could import all Exr's as a sequenze without problems. I'm not really familiar with this technique, i can't help you, i guess :/ Sry!
Ladcraft
fuck >.< so mad this meant to be a tutorial lol. Thanks for the reply i googled it but cant see to find anything or put my words together and explain exactly wat happening haha. I'm so sad took me 16 hour to render 480frames. RIP. Thansk for your time again
is there a way to make the hexagons come up individually instead of in groups of two
You *might* could try to make the Randomizer of the size of the hexagon?
What do you mean? They split or so?
Pretty damn late lol, but the same thing happened to me. In my case, it was because the fillet in the Caps section of the "Top" and "Glow" parts of the hexagon kept turning off. I kept turning on automation, red button next to "fillet", for the fillet itself and disabling that fixed it for me (so that I didn't have to keep enabling them).
Great tut and big thanks showing how it's done. I am very fresh in C4D so this my 1st. ever rendering of anything from C4D and just now my multipass render is at 35 frame, folder Passes contains 35 EXR files...Yes, render up to now is taking 7h and 30min...despair is on my face and since you said that there should be only one EXR file I am more and more convinced that I did something terribly wrong...BUT WHAT???please say something, thanks :)
thanks man. helps me a lot.
can you send the texture?
