- Cineware is the plug-in that controls the exchange…of information moving between Cinema 4D Lite…and After Effects.…There are a couple of different ways…you can work with Cineware to make your workflow…relatively fast and in this video,…I'll show you some of my favorite production tips…to keep things moving quickly throughout your projects.…Before we dive into Cineware, I just wanna show you…what's possible.…I'll double-click the 01_SZ Title Reference comp…and press the spacebar to play things back.…You can see this is my 3D logo animation that was created…inside of Cinema 4D Lite…and then I took that animation…and created this composite inside of After Effects…by adding the flash over and the glowing light leaks…and the different stylized effects.…
So let's press the spacebar to stop playback here…and go to the 02_SZ Title 3D comp…and in here you should notice things look…completely different.…This is just my base Cinema 4D layer…and if I grab my current time indicator,…and scrub through, you can see the basic animation…
