What you'll learn

When creating 3d projects, you'll often want to try out any number of settings or materials before you settle on a final result. You may want to see what your model looks like with a different style of accessory, or with a different color of label. Instead of saving out different file variations or duplicating materials, you can set up different takes for each variation and view each one very quickly from a single scene file. In this course, you'll learn to use the new Takes system in CINEMA 4D to add this kind of flexibility to your workflow. Software required: CINEMA 4D R17.
