This is a great post, Timmy! These two programs do work well together, and everyone owes it to themselves to at least try making them work.

This is something that, as a C4D & AE user, I just haven’t been taking advantage of and really should have been from the start…

Sometimes you just need an article or a tut to kick you up the ass first!

Nice post…keep’em coming.

Cheers!
Lee

“Well, it looks like Cinema4D and After Effects are looking out for you and the cute animal you may or may not being thinking about punting across your living room.”

Yep. We are totally looking out for the animals. We’re glad to diminish the chances of them being punted.

[...] Timmy Allen‘s first article is here and it’s a great explanation on just how Adobe After Effects and Maxon Cinema 4D work together and why you want them to. It’s a wonderful article by a great motion graphics designer. Go check it out! [...]

I’m stoked you got something out of it. And, you’re welcome…? I guess… Hahaha. I know how that goes, but I really do believe that if you’re doing anything in motion, and especially broadcast motion, that these are the two applications for you. Nothing wrong with 3D Studio Max or Maya, but come on. Those applications are HUGE and cumbersome if you’re just getting started. In my opinion C4D is the perfect mix between power and ease of use.

Good luck with everything Eric!

You know, I hate it when a blog post convinces me that I need to invest in new software. Now I have to go rearrange my budget when I get home.

But seriously, thanks for this! I’ve been toying with 3D for a couple years now (Blender mostly) and am looking to dive in and get more involved with it. I love After Effects and have been secretly waiting for Adobe to bring out a 3D program that works like/incorporates AE (and not in that CS4 import OBJ files through photoshop way). But it sounds like C4D is the way to go.

Thanks for the great tips, and, *sigh*, convincing me that it’s time to take the plunge.
