We needed to make a box explode in Cinema 4D. That was too easy and boring. After learning MoGraph, how could you not want to make a Transformer? This only took a couple hours and turned out pretty cool for my first try.

Here is a 3D piece i made for our Bobby Fischer Infographic using Cinema 4D. It was pretty much our first time animating 3D so sorry if the camera is too nauseating. This is probably going to be used as the intro to our piece. There will be a couple more 3D elements added to this motion as well.
