Introduction to Redshift: The Basics

In this class we will learn the basics of the Redshift Render Engine inside of Maxon's Cinema 4D (C4D). We will cover workflow, lighting, render settings, creating materials, camera options, and an overview of the UI and how the renderer works. We will learn to create an abstract art scene with a studio set up and create a fast clean render. By the end of this course you will know the basics of how to use Redshift and be amazed at it's speed!

This class is for beginners and experienced users alike looking to learn more about Redshift. This 3D GPU Renderer makes amazing renders and animations possible on a low budget and minimal hardware. Follow along in this Redshift Tutorial to create your first render and become familiar with this renderer's workflow 

THIS CLASS:

- We are going to take a look at the Redshift Render Engine.

-We will go over:

• The UI
• Lighting - A Studio Setup
• Materials
• Camera Settings
• Render Settings
• Post FX

This is the first class of a series of Redshift training.

-The goal of this course is to get you comfortable and familiar with the Redshift render engine, its layout and workflow tips and tricks.

-This is for beginners and people curious about the Redshift engine to get you acquainted with the software, its strengths and how to incorporate it into your workflow.

-I will be using C4D but the information is not limited to Cinema 4D, it applies to all 3D software that Redshift supports, 3ds max, maya, etc. GPU rendering like Redshift is an incredible tool for independent users and teams alike.

I'm excited to introduce you to it's incredible power to make insanely fast amazing renders.
