Learn to create a mesmerizing 3D knitting animation loop in Cinema 4D through this 28-minute tutorial that demonstrates advanced spline manipulation techniques. Master the process of crafting intricate spline shapes, utilizing MoSpline for point reduction, and applying Free Form Deformer (FFD) for precise spline reshaping. Explore the power of Mograph cloner and plain effector to generate complex knitting patterns, while discovering rendering options in both Redshift and Cinema 4D's native standard/physical renderer. Follow along with detailed timestamps that break down each step of the creative process, from initial spline creation to final rendering, inspired by @plenty.Tv's Instagram work.
