Master Cinematic 3D Concepts
If you don’t understand the fundamentals of 3D animation—how to light a scene properly, create a dynamic composition, direct purposeful camera moves, or tell a compelling story—the render engine you use won’t matter. It’s not about how good the render engine is, it’s about how good the artist is! Lights, Camera, Render will unlock the ability to create a beautiful render every time by teaching concepts such as lighting, camera movement, and how to develop your eye to think more like a digital director of photography.


David Ariew
David Ariew started his career between the intersection of the music and film industries, where he spent three years working on touring visuals for Dave Matthews Band. Around that time, he first discovered his love of C4D—and more importantly, Octane Render. Since then he’s been lovingly dubbed "Octane Jesus" by the mograph community, and has gone on to work on projects for top artists such as Katy Perry, Deadmau5, Zedd, Keith Urban, and Excision, as well as companies such as Intel, Magic Leap, KFC, and iHeartRadio.
Meet your classmates and dive straight into the action as David teaches you how to create an amazing cyberpunk scene from scratch! Lighting, texturing, camera settings, advanced scatter systems! You'll be flooded with knowledge and inspiration to create your own futuristic city scene that will act as a benchmark to see where your skills are currently. You'll also get the chance to explore the over 1,000 assets you can use for the course.
- Build a city from scratch and experiment with composition and camera settings!
- Discover eye opening techniques that will change the way you approach lighting.
- Learn world building techniques using the custom SOM Kitbash assets.
