The philosophy behind CINEMA 4D is very simple. We believe in letting you add only the tools you think you'll need. Everything in the core application is what we consider essential to any 3D user. However, if you need more than that simply add on the modules you need. It's that easy.

Jack of all trades

CINEMA 4D is a jack of all trades, and will readily help you master yours. CINEMA 4D offers unparalleled ease-of-use so you can quickly add it to your toolbox, whether you're a CAD-savvy architect, a motion graphics guru or captain of another industry. You can interact with users from all industries, and take advantage of the tutorials and support provided by a large community of users.

CINEMA 4D - State-of-the-art technology for 3D graphics

From the very beginning, MAXON has always been one of the first developers of 3D software to integrate important technologies into its applications. MAXON demonstrated its ability to create fast, stable and easy to learn applications with its very first application. Multiprocessor support, multithreading, hyperthreading and DualCore support are just a few of the technologies MAXON has integrated into its applications over the years.

Ease of use

As a 3D artist you know that fast, easy workflow is the key to meeting deadlines and beating the competition. while allowing you to customize almost every aspect of the interface itself to achieve the fastest and easiest workflow possible. Novices and pros alike will appreciate the well-designed workflow that makes CINEMA 4D the easiest-to-learn professional 3D app.

Multilingual

Se habla español or sprechen sie Deutsch? CINEMA 4D is available in 8 different languages - your native tongue may be native to CINEMA 4D too.

• German
• French
• Italian
• Japanese
• Polish
• Spanish
• Czech

Modular Expandability

The basic application already contains all functions needed to create high-end 3D images and animations - start the application and start working, it's that easy. For those whose work demands more than the basic application, MAXON provides numerous CINEMA 4D modules that can be integrated seamlessly.

A total of 8 modules are available with which you can expand the functionality of your CINEMA 4D application to fit your needs. Because you only have to buy the functionality your job requires, you can tailor CINEMA 4D to fit your budget as well.

Free Tech support

The 3D world is difficult to navigate, and you're bound to hit a roadblock now and then. When problems arise, you can count on MAXON's tech support specialists to provide quick and complimentary support by phone or email.

Don't risk being stranded on the side of a lonely information highway. Travel with the peace and security our support team provides.

Completely Cross-Platform

CINEMA 4D's completely cross-platform architecture is equally at home on Windows or Macintosh. MAXON's commitment to new technologies on both platforms is evident in quick support for both 64-bit Windows systems and intel-based Macintosh hardware. Use the operating system you prefer, and the 3D software that doesn't care which you use.

Awards

MAXON has earned outstanding praise from reviewers around the world. CINEMA 4D's outstanding workflow and rendering prowess has gained recognition throughout the years and the software has consistently earned product of the year and editor's choice awards for its excellence.

File Exchange

Man isn't an island, and neither is CINEMA 4D. Because real world 3D artists don't work in a vacuum, CINEMA 4D includes support for a host of industry standard file formats. Images and movies in PSD, TIF, Targa, JPG, Quicktime, AVI and other popular formats can be imported as textures or modeling templates, or used for final output.

Support for vector formats extends to Illustrator import and Flash and EPS export. Assets can be exchanged with other 3D apps in DXF, 3DS, OBJ and other formats, while entire scenes can be imported using Lightwave and FBX formats. Architects and engineers enjoy direct import of scenes from Allplan, Vectorworks and ArchiCad through the purchase of additional plug-ins.

Windows users can even populate their scenes using Archvision's RPC format and extensive libraries of Real People and objects. Scenes can be exported to the web using Macromedia's SW3D format, while final renders can be exported directly to Adobe After Effects, Combustion, Final Cut Pro, Shake and NxN Alienbrain. You can easily transfer data with other tools you use frequently, and that makes CINEMA 4D the best tool for the job.

Mighty Modeling

Make your own reality with CINEMA 4D's extensive modeling toolset.

Parametric primitives provide a firm foundation for your modeling tasks, while plentiful polygonal tools make it easy to control every detail of your model. A number of deformers and other generators can be used in conjunction with objects, and their non-linear construction history makes it easy to adjust items as the scene progresses. Splines can be used as the basis for extrudes, lofts, lathes and sweeps, all of which can be adjusted dynamically in real time and even animated.

Choose between paramters or polygons

CINEMA 4D's extensive polygon modeling tools are essential when creating more complex objects. Model your way through complex corners with the help of multiple-sided n-gons, and smooth your organic objects with subdivision-surfaces.

Paint to Perfection

Gain surfacing supremacy by painting directly on your 3D models.

Utilize familiar tools from 2D applications to edit your textures, but view the results on your models in real-time.

Preview color, transparency, bump and reflection as you paint directly on a rendered image, or paint a shaded view for complete interactivity. Paint entire surfaces including 13 different material properties like color, transparency, diffusion, specularity and bump - all with a single brush stroke.

Paint in 3D in Realtime

Full support for most drawing tablets makes it easy to paint with natural feeling as brush parameters automatically adjust to pen tilt, direction and pressure. Paint across multiple objects with a single stroke, and overcome seams with projection painting.

Creating textures in 2D can be a chore and switching between applications slows down your workflow - experience the excitement of real-time results with CINEMA 4D.
