Finding good tips on how to compress video for a Vimeo and Youtube release isn’t easy. But after some testing I’ve come up with these settings in the free program mpeg streamclip. It’s seems them both prefers the mp4 container over mov. With mov you get crushed blacks, so everything you’ve worked for is lost in the dark. So stick with mp4 and use the settings in the picture. You don’t really need the Multipass and B-Frames, but more thorough compression doesn’t hurt.

Make you object editable. Disconnect your object and turn off Preserve Groups. Add the Point Cache tag. You'll find it under character tags. Store State and Calculate Now the PolyFX is baked and you can turn off everything else and you can send it to team render without any problem

I updated the Metroid II: project with this fellow. Everything is made in C4D.

I've done some 3d test with this free model from Ten24. It's a Modo scene but you get an .obj file and all the textures you'll need. I've done my renders in Cinema4D with the use of Lambertian (diffuse) in the Reflectance for the color channel and Beckmann for the reflection. No use of GI, AO and light, just HDRI on a sky object.

Good luck and happy rendering!

Made with: Cinema 4d r16, After Effects and Ten24 3d Scans,

Dark room studio with 3D scan hand rendered in Cinema 4D physical render. To make this optimized I used zBrush to make a better topology flow and displacement map.

Sound design by me

Trying some architecture rendering from Cinema4D. This is from a free model at TurboSquid http://www.turbosquid.com/3d-models/house-max-free/384394 Testing light, shadows, material and textures to find a solution for this kind of rendering. Also tryed to make it as friendly as possible with vivid colors and clean surfaces.

DeLorean DMC part2 - DeLorean DMC, classic car from late 70s and most famous from Back to The Future. Found the free model here: http://www.cgriver.com/free-downloads/6266-free-3d-model-delorean.html

The reason I made the picture is this weird thing.

Testing other topology technique. Zbrush it's the only way to roll. The model is a  classic bust of Ajax, the mythical Greek hero.

The uv-unwrapping is also something I've postponed to do, and I think it's stupid that there isn't any better in Cinema 4d. It should be so simple, but it isn't. I like to work procedural and hate the fact that I have to switch programs. But now I know how to do it I guess I'll do it again for client based projects.
