Messing with Cinema4D

Here's a quick test of the xplode plugin for Cinema4D. Had to play around with different shatter/explode effects for some headphone renders I'm doing. The original hd size video took about 6 hours to render, which is not bad considering it also has proper motion blur.

Beautiful Audi Motion Piece

Orson Welles

Saw this at the The Liam McEneaney Experience "Speaking of loosely disjointed rambling, the great Orson Welles ended his career as the spokesman for cheap wine and frozen peas.
