SOLID TO LIQUID: V1.5 New Features!

By Blog 11 Comments

Here is our new demo reel for Solid To Liquid Tool featuring new effects and animations made with the latest version v1.5. This is our biggest update to Solid To Liquid ever.

Geometry Integration


With this new feature you can use geometric objects such as ( sculptures, reliefs, character…). also offers you multiples parameters to easily control your animation. You no longer need keyframes to build out your animation, all transition parameters are automated. then you will be able to make adjustments that much quicker on a tight deadline.

You can choose between two modes in this new feature
  1. Normal mode: contrary to the “dynamic mode” this mode does not support “Bubble and Metaball object”,
    but it contain a few more new options.
    In this mode you have two types of transition (Linear & Fading).
  2. Dynamic mode: employs the same principle as “Text, Presets & Custom modes”.
    As its name suggests, it supports dynamic objects.

Normal Mode

linear_transition_smal
Dynamic Mode

stl_culpture_small stl_horse_small

Solid To Liquid Tool – For CINEMA 4D

By Tutorial 39 Comments

n this Quick Tips, I demonstrate the use of Solid To Liquid Tool, showing how it can be employed using different parameters.

Solid To Liquid Version 1.5 Quick-tip

Solid To Liquid Tool

Allow you to easily create a transitioning effect of solid to liquid form and few other functionality.

  • Choose between three different shape modes which include text, preset, or custom.
  • Two different transitioning modes allowing you to set step or melt for the transition effect.
  • The “Auto Animate” option that creates animation without the use of any keyframes at all.

The Solid To Liquid Tool can also be used to create a demolition or destructive effect as well, using the same physics as the liquid effect.

C4D Title “Aircraft Theme” Breakdown

By 3D & VFX One Comment

I create and animate this title in cinema 4d using MoText, then I made it editable. I use After Effects to composite image sequences rendered from C4D.

Use

  • Matte Painting & Texture images prepared in Photoshop
  • Trapcode Particular & Mojo for Color Correction
  • Footage – Action Movie Essentials – Video Copilot

Compositing

Compositing is the combining of visual elements from separate sources into single images, often to create the illusion that all those elements are parts of the same scene. Live-action shooting for compositing is variously called “chroma key”, “blue screen”, “green screen” and other names. Today, most, though not all, compositing is achieved through digital image manipulation. Pre-digital compositing techniques, however, go back as far as the trick films of Georges Méliès in the late 19th century; and some are still in use. (wikipedia)

After Effects

Adobe After Effects is a motion graphics application that allows users to animate, alter, and composite media and add effects both in 2D and 3D environments.
