The only thing I don’t understand is why your MacOsX displays your name on the upper right corner. I mean, mine never did that, EVER. I feel kinda sad about that too.
It’s a setting you have to activate in the Preferences then you can feel special and have your name on it too! 🙂
Hey EJ.
Great video as always – love your content.
Is there a way to achieve this effect with a closed spline? For example if you wanted to outline text in Illustrator, import that spline and then reveal it in the same way (without having to draw out a single line spline).
I love this technique. Adding cel shading and S&T you can get some great looks. Thanks for all of your in-depth tutorials!
Thanks Grayson! Appreciate the kind comment!
Man c4d has such cool tools to make animation! Awesome tuts!
Totally! Thanks for watching! 🙂
