- In this movie we'll animate the letter O in our logo…and then apply bouncy movements…by using a Jiggle deformer with some Linear Falloff.…For the letter O we're gonna use Jiggle deformer…with a Linear falloff and set keyframes in the position Y…to have our O drop in from the top of our screen…and land in its position in the logo.…Let's go ahead and select our Jiggle deformer,…and let's just zero out all of its coordinates…so it's dead center in our connect object.…Now it's keyframe RO so it drops in…from the top of our screen.…
Let's go to Frame 20…and record a keyframe in the position Y.…Now let's go ahead and just solo the view of our O here…by going to Viewport Solo Single.…Now we just have our O in our Viewport.…Now let's go to Frame 10…and bring our connect object…up about 600 centimeters or so, that's good,…and record another keyframe in the position Y.…
So if I enable the Jiggle deformer and hit Play,…you can see that we have our O slamming down.…Since the Jiggle deformer is set…to Infinite Falloff right now,…

3/19/2015Author EJ Hassenfratz uses CINEMA 4D to extrude 3D text from Illustrator letterforms and animate the letters individually utilizing the very versatile Jiggle deformer, which applies fun, unique movements to each one. Then he adds bright, cheerful textures and lighting to the scene, and composites the final effect in After Effects, incorporating some finishing touches that will make your logo seem even more playful and expressive.
