Formverse Workshop:

FormVerse course will teach you how to create impressive forms using Cinema 4D and shape them like a professional. Make parametric interactions, produce volumes, and adapt them to your references. Learn different modeling techniques, including hard surface modeling and symmetry, and create mean-looking structures from basic. And for the final how to showcase your work and highlight the beauty of your forms using Corona Render Engine for cinema 4D.

The focus of the workshop:

This course will teach how to use Cinema 4D’s essential tools to create unique results without struggling with the software’s details. Showing the secret power of hard surface modeling in architecture. Speeding up your workflow from one idea to creating a form beginning that Idea and expanding it to a building-like structure and rendering it with Corona engine while exaggerating the form’s characteristics in a specific type of style “Mean looking” of images.

Methodology:

The course will provide information about finding references for the desired form students want to create, importing the ideal image to Cinema 4d’s interface, and matching the scale. Starting from the basics of creating the shapes and lines and complicating them as we progress. Hard surface modeling techniques will be explained, and different forms of it will be used. In the second section of the course, conceptual rendering techniques will be discussed using exterior lighting techniques with a combination of artificial lighting.

Objectives:

At the end of the course, you can shape curved forms using Cinema 4d and progress your skills with different techniques in designing exciting structures. Also, create good-looking materials and render your project with the Corona render engine.
