Fluid Effects in C4D, After Effects previews upgraded, and a battle for Rive supremacy!
This week we dive into Maxon's Spring 2025 update packed with new features including a teased liquid simulation system for Cinema 4D and improved Redshift integration. We also explore After Effects 25.2's game-changing cache system that finally lets you preview any length comp without maxing out your RAM. In addition, Premiere Pro officially launches Generative Extend and other new AI-based features.
Discover Plainly's incredible free expression library for After Effects users, Brady Erickson's brilliant chrome effect tutorial, and a Gaussian Splat importer for C4D that's an absolute steal at $21.
We also showcase stunning work from ManVsMachine, PlayStation, and Cub Studio as well as Cavalry’s new reel. Plus we’ll check out Ben Marriott's dithering deep dive and that wild Rive design battle you need to see.
There is still time to join our Spring 2025 session!
Classes have just started but it’s orientation week, so there is still time to jump into our Spring 2025 session with tons of opportunities for beginners to get started and for more experienced artists to up their game! Registration closes next Monday, April 14. LEARN MORE ➔
