Motion Design Love -

Another week in motion design and more great stuff from the motion graphics world.  We have great links from Fuel Your Motionography, CG Tuts and AE Tuts, another great tutorial from Nick Campbell on using the Tracer Object in Cinema 4D and Beeple gives away all his Cinema 4D files away for free for everyone to dissect!  Enjoy!

Fuel Your Motionography

I found a great introduction to the basics of using a camera and what kind of shots there are this week from Fuel Your Motionography.  Knowing your camera and what it can do is something that is very important to motiongraphers and videoographers alike.  This is the second part of an introduction to knowing your camera but it is definitely worth checking out the first part too!

CG Tuts

Envato’s CG Tuts posted a nice tutorial about making an animated logo with Cinema 4D and After Effects.  If your wanting to learn Cinema 4D then go check this tutorial out.

AE Tuts

Another one from Envato, AE Tuts had a great tutorial for After Effects on how to use some simple solids, camera movements and a few effects to create a cool looking animation, check out the preview below.

Also on AE Tuts, Topher Welsh presented a great round up of Motion Graphics Meetups, if your interested in Motion Graphics then definitely check out the list to see if there are any meetups near yourself.

Greyscale Gorilla

As always, Nick Vegas from Greyscale Gorilla presents another great tutorial, this time it’s about using the Tracer object in Cinema 4D, check out the preview image above.  If you want to find out how to use the Tracer Object, go visit his blog or check out the video below.

Beeple

One of the biggest stories this week is that Beeple has released all his Cinema 4D scene for anyone to download from his site, this mean that people like me and you can download and dissect the file to see how a certain effect was achieved or how he textured something.. If you haven’t seen any of his work, check out some of his work below.
