Advanced Label Texturing in Cinema 4D & Redshift

gumroad.com/iamrossmason
In todays video, we're looking at this old client project of mine, and how I set up the texturing for the label using Cinema 4D and Redshift. We discuss creating a realistic paper texture, how to add embossings and different finishes, as well as how to set up Normal Maps and Alpha Masks in Adobe Photoshop! I also discuss how to light the scene to best show off the label!

Finally someone on this YT platform who knows what their talking about how to handle files across different design softwares.

[@JasonWilliams-nm4qq]

Thank You for taking the time to create this breakdown. This has been the most informative/digestible tutorial I've managed to come across on creating textures with nodes. I look forward to checking out future tutorials!

[@worem2192]

Thank you for this amazing breakdown, I am new to redshift and still learning new things, this video was definitely worth watching :D

It's simply stunning. Great work!

Thank you Carlos! Hope it was useful :)

[@ryangerard2749]

Great tutorial, finally what i was looking for! One question for you or anyone out here, my embossing has a weird texture on it, it's not completely smooth like yours. Do you have any idea how to fix this or smoothen it out? Thank you!

[@msc_1974]

Nice video... I know you can't make this project available to download but would love to have a deep dive into the node setup. Any chance you could make a 'generic' logo/label version and allow to download/purchase?

[@AB-mv1mb]

Awesome tutorial!

[@iamrossmason]

Thank you! Hope it was useful :)

[@PHaNtoM44443]

thanks for the cc0textures tip!

[@iamrossmason]

You're welcome!

[@mwasifanjum]

I've spent hours searching for something like this. Finally! Just one issue. How to turn off Affects diffuse in RS 3.5, as there's no ray tab in current version?

[@stepansolovev1838]

Я не знаю английского, но твой урок очень понятен! Спасибо за подобные уроки. Thanks for your tutorial!

@@iamrossmason I enjoyed the video and I believe it helped me. Thank you very much for your videos😊

[@noodle7794]

Thank you!!!

[@maximmatthew]

Hello Ross, thank you for your efford and this spectacular tutorial. I would love to follow along with the Project files... but I can't find them on your gumroad shop. Can you help me ?

[@petrholusa5855]

Looks wonderful. Honestly I am struggling with simple labelling objects with sticker or something like that onto complex material . It's a nightmare.

[@SerpCreative]

Time to back out the black book and listen to this masterclass 🙏🏼 #hourswellspent

[@iamrossmason]

Appreciate you brother! I want to see more black book videos from you though ;)

[@mrwhatever1970]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience with us and your really informative and well-made tutorials. However, maybe you might consider changing your screen ratio to 16:9 ratio for future recordings? A lot of screen real estate gets lost with the black bars at the top and bottom and it's really hard to read the small text…

[@fsLUXE]

was about to say the same. Moving on because I can't read anything on the screen.

[@brandmotivo]

@@fsLUXE pathetic.

[@chemicalradio7471]

Hi. very cool tutorial. you really did a very cool job. how did you do the normal map ? thanks !!! I meant what program and how? in photoshop? I am very bad at mapping normals in photoshop, so I just decided to ask))

[@PlaywithVirus]

tnank you so much

[@carldouglas8933]

Awesome

[@iamrossmason]

Thank you Carl!

[@ramazanakbuga]

I missed this

[@u8myshorts]

Hey man this is awesome. Where can i find the project files for this?

[@vincentlam4575]

Very good work, no file found in the link.

[@aleevsergey]

Cool tutorial, but try to do smth with the size of the screen. Its hard to notice some differences on PW.

[@user-pu8oy1gf1f]

hello?How to download your project files? I want to learn your video tutorial!

[@vendo7878]

colored coated paper is not a problem but white to have reflections, incredibly difficult

[@animaticocuentas7698]

Great tutorial! can i create a normal map from svg or ai vector? thanks!

[@rafaelfolk2864]

Hi! You may use the "Materialize" software to do that. You will have to export the SVG/Vector to an image first (like PNG, JPG, etc) and then create a normal map from that one inside Materialize. Roughness, and others may be created inside that software as well Hope that helps! Cheers!

[@balinbalinov1913]

might be my first comment ever, thanks alot

[@petrholusa5855]

Well typical issue of the redshift material that label is visible backside of the label.

[@plorenz64]

How can I do the Displacement thing with NORMAL, but in Corona Render?

[@iamrossmason]

Under the bump channel of your material you can add a ‘Normal’ effect and then link your texture :)

[@vendo7878]

man, right now I'm worried about that, I'm making a box of drugs, it's unbelievable timing, I greet you from Slovakia

[@iamrossmason]

I hope this tutorial helps then!

[@chhn6532]

it doesn't have project files on link D:

[@ttmmaacc]

The screen recording is so small... even in fullscreen?

[@92RraveR]

Since you're already working with smart objects in PS, why not make the alpha mask in AI? My designer heart skipped a beat when I saw you select the logo with the magic wand tool... The magic wand's jagged edges haunt my nightmares. It might be me tho, I'm quite OCD when it comes to logos and stuff. I'd rather not do selections like that. But apart from that, awesome tutorial! Really in depth explanation.

[@JohnSnyggExplores]

Just checked and Photoshop is discontinuing the 3D tools in photoshop. So the Normal creation will be removed. Its a shame as you now then need to use another software to do the same task.
