c4dIf you’ve never used Maxon’s Cinema4D (C4D), then you may not realize just how easily and nicely it interfaces with Adobe’s AfterEffects.  The two products share similar interfaces and Maxon has spent considerable time and effort on making the two work seamlessly.  In a new tutorial on aeTuts+, you can see the symbiotic relationship in action.

The more you get into After Effects, the more you realize how cool it is to bring in stuff from outside the program. This tutorial shows how take a scene from Cinema 4D and bring it over into AE. After effects is a compositing program and this is a perfect example of how to take a basic animation and add some “after effects”!
