Venturing into a brand new area, I thought I would bring you a tutorial on something I am still currently learning. Cinema 4D. Here is a simple tutorial for those also just starting out. How to create a simple wine glass using splines & the latheNurbs.

In my very first video tutorial I thought I would go all different & do a tutorial for a 3d application, namely Cinema 4D. I am still learning myself, but thought I would do a starter tutorial. It also gives me a great opportunity to practice my communication skills. I am from Geordie land (think Cheryl Cole) so apologies if I am a little hard to understand & the voice track came out a little quieter than I’d hoped, unfortunately I can’t amplify it much as it distorts it too much.

Also I know the wine glass I make ends up slightly low poly going across so if you are going to use it somewhere you might want to make sure you add a few more spline points when going around the bowl of the glass. Let me know if I can do anything to improve the quality of the video tutorials, remember this is my first one ever so be kind.

Here is a much better version of a final result. It’s not the best, but it illustrates what you could end up with. I added a omni light with shadow maps, a spot light with shadow maps, a HDRI map of a photography studio & some wine created with realflow 4. I’ll see if I can make a tutorial on that soon.
