Exploding Wood and Trees in C4D - Everything You Need to Know

RocketLasso via YouTube

Overview

Dive into an in-depth Cinema 4D tutorial exploring advanced techniques for exploding wood and trees using Voronoi Fracture. Master environment setup, cannonball dynamics, and matrix object fracturing. Learn to apply materials correctly, manipulate gravity, use field objects for dynamic control, and connect splinters. Discover how to shatter smaller sections, remap dynamics timing, and apply these techniques to entire tree models. Gain valuable insights into creating realistic wood explosions and tree destruction effects in 3D animation.
