• Improved Character Tools

    Master even the biggest challenges with the improved character tools.

  • Professional Animation Tools

    Capture your scene more realistic with the new Motion Camera.

Animation

Accelerate your animation workflow with CINEMA 4D R14's enhancements to cameras, dynamics and character tools. Quickly morph between camera positions and create dynamic camera animations with the Motion Camera system. Achieve greater realism and control over dynamics in CINEMA 4D Broadcast and Studio with aerodynamic forces, plastic springs and breaking connectors, as well as enhanced XPresso control over Dynamics. Give life to your characters with updated rigs and enhanced Character object capabilities.

Motion Camera

Easily morph between cameras and create realistic, dynamic camera animations with the Motion Camera tags in CINEMA 4D Broadcast, Visualize and Studio. Select multiple cameras and create a new camera morph to quickly animate between each camera’s position, orientation and physical camera settings. Generate path and target-based animation with the natural, dynamic motion of a shoulder-mounted camera rig with the Motion Camera tag. Stitch multiple animated cameras together, adding dynamic dampening and spring effects to create truly compelling camera motion.

Improved character tools

Bypass the tedious and complex rigging process and easily add animation to characters with the enhanced Character Object in CINEMA 4D Studio. Fire up four-legged friends with a new Advanced Quadruped template. Develop more versatile templates including materials and layers, and utilizing enhanced Python support.

Aerodynamic Forces

Fan your creativity with new aerodynamic forces in CINEMA 4D Broadcast and Studio. You can now specify aerodynamic drag and lift on any dynamic object, including Soft Bodies to make paper, leaves or any object realistically fly with just a few clicks.

Plastic and Breaking Objects

Create smashing soft-body simulations with new plastic spring settings. Dial in elastic limits on structural and flexion springs as well as Shape Conservation, and once the limits are reached, the mesh will become plastic and maintain the deformation caused by the collision. Apply these same elastic limits to any Spring object, and break springs once they exceed a specified stretch or compression distance. Break Fixed Connectors when a certain force or torque is applied, or utilize new XPresso nodes to break any spring or connector on demand.
