Cinema 4D adds dedicated scattering controls and Liquid FX, Redshift improves interactive feedback, and Red Giant brings Scene Light relighting to After Effects. Autograph gains AI-agent control and a direct Cinema 4D connection. Chris Schmidt’s three-hour walkthrough digs into the release and his thoughts on AI, while Getty’s Chapter 11 filing and SCAD’s Applied AI degree put the business and future of creative work in the spotlight.

Cool Work spans Ordinary Folk’s Distance, with more than nine hundred hand-painted frames telling a story about Samuel Morse, plus projects from Oddfellows, illo, and Rocketpanda. Hayley Akins shares a free guide to starting a studio, Car Paint Studio tackles Blender materials, and Cinema4D Migration Tool helps carry customized setups forward.
