In this tutorial, I’m going to show you how you can utilize the powerful Dynamics module in Cinema 4D to work in a 2D After Effects mograph workflow!
You Will Learn:
• Dynamics basics
• Using Dynamic Expert options
• Using Variation Shader to add random materials
• Using Parallel Camera for flat, 2D looks

If you have any questions about how to use dynamic, post them in the comments section! If you created any cool 2D dynamic animations using any of these workflows, be sure to share it with me Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, or in the Comments! Thanks for watching!
Love the tutorial! Coming from 2D design, it’s a perfect example of how C4d can bring a simple, clean design like this to life. Thanks!!
Happy this opened your eyes to how you can utlize some 3D in your workflow! :) Thanks for watching!
I need your title help… what are the typical (most used) Cinema 4d dynamics? Can any one make a list of Cinema 4d dynamics? Or any links to find out about all dynamics types?
There’s Soft Body Dynamics and Rigid Body dynamics. I have a whole playlist on Youtube that covers both types
Hey EJ. Thanks for sharing knowledge. I’d like to share my result:

Hi! Thanks for the tutorial. I’m trying to find a way to leave the particles completely still at the end of the animation and to have less vibration while they’re still moving. I’ve tried pumping the friction up to 100%, playing with the gravity (working in XZ plane instead of XY), damping, etc… I can’t seem to find a solution. Can you think of something that I might try?
Thanks!!
I noticed that my particles sort of flicker when they appear. How can I fix it ?
I’d try upping the samples per frame that I cover in the Expert tab!
