another skill to learn!

great Dave, thanks for sharing it's very helpful

[@CGShortcuts]

No worries Djamil!

[@smileyaliona]

Really useful! 🤩

[@rw3452]

Great!

How do you make individual shapes morph, like in the example animation? Guessing use a different field, but which one?

[@CGShortcuts]

Great question George! As it's a bit hard to give you a good answer here in the comments, any chance you could post your question on our Facebook Group and one of our community members can give you a hand;) If you could post some screenshots of your issue too that would be super helpful!

You can do this another way by adding an Emitter to a Plain effector field, adjusting the layer tab radius, then adjusting the Plain effectors modify clone under the parameter tab.

Cheers Tim, many ways to do everything in c4d;)

[@LeighWilliamson]

This is amazing! Is there a way to just make one shape turn into a totally different shape not using spherify?

[@CGShortcuts]

There sure is Leigh, we're developing a tutorial for this very soon as well;)

[@LeighWilliamson]

@@CGShortcuts Brilliant! Could you comment or tag me when you post it? Many thanks

[@ArgoBeats]

very interesting, but how do we morph between 2 complex objects, say 2 faces? THanks!

Hello friend. I would like to do something like this: a supermarket car passing through the aisles and the products would jump into the cart. is there a possibility to do with the cloner? I didn't want to do one by one because it will be a lot of work. If you can help me thank you very much.

[@CGShortcuts]

yeah you could use a cloner to clone the products and have them fly into the cart with dynamics, will be a pretty complex setup

[@vilchico]

Hi Dave, thanks for the tutorial. Will this technique apply to a human becoming a monster for example?

[@djamilazzouz3715]

I don't think you can do this with technique, to do morphing in your example, you must use Inheritance effector

[@Didar222]

why you never show material settings???

[@CGShortcuts]

Hi mate, I always use Octane to render these and because not everyone has access to the plugin, I don't always go through the process (as it's often the same steps each time). If you want to see exactly how I've done the lighting and texturing, all the final render ready project files (which include all the lighting, materials and render settings) can be downloaded from our website: cgshortcuts.com/product/object-morphing/ or our Patreon page: www.patreon.com/cgshortcuts . We also have an in-depth course about lighting, texturing and rendering here cgshortcuts.com/product/the-ultimate-octane-masterclass/ ;) Thanks for watching!

[@Didar222]

@@CGShortcuts Hello. Do I need to buy Octane Render first before purchasing your course?

[@etchedintime8047]

Excellent video but I found the thumping music annoying.

[@CGShortcuts]

Thanks for the tip, do you mean the intro and outro music or the backing track during the tutorial? Should we just scrap the music and have it quiet during the tutorials? We thought about doing this so people can listen to their own music while they watch, let me know what you think

[@tinkeringwithediting4860]

everything works great until the final step

click bait= not actually object morphing. spherifying only

[@CGShortcuts]

Many different ways to morph objects, this is one

[@chuppyfunny2403]

hư

[@CGShortcuts]

👍

[@PiginaCage]

How is this "object morphing" if you're turning them into spheres only? click bait

[@CGShortcuts]

Its still an interesting technique people might find useful. If you want a more elaborate morph try this one: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p5y0e3Sqgc91l8k
