Lesser-known C4D tutorial sites.

Lesser-known C4D tutorial sites.

While most C4D users are familiar with tutorial sites like the C4D Cafe, the C4D Base, and c4dportal, there are plenty of lesser-known sites that often slip under the radar. Some of these sites contain incredible gems of information.

A few of my favorites:

JAG4D
THE GOOD
Complex subjects; very little in the way of beginner material. Covers Mograph, Xpresso, IK, Bodypaint, etc.
THE BAD
Cluttered layout. Navigation is not immediately intelligible.

Cinema 4D SFX
THE GOOD
Advanced and diverse subjects. Covers topics like dynamics and Pyrocluster that are rarely covered in free C4D instructional material.
THE BAD
Terrible site layout built on a hybrid forum/CMS. Requires registration to download tutorial files.

bonkers.de
THE GOOD
Written tips and explanations of advanced C4D subjects, including Hair and Thinking Particles.
THE BAD
It’s all in text format.

Viefex
THE GOOD
Big mograph/VFX site that covers multiple software packages. The C4D video tutorials include topics like Mograph, Clothilde, and Hair.
THE BAD
Again, a needlessly cumbersome layout.
