ABSTRACT
I t’s time to explore CINEMA 4D’s powerful NURBS (nonuniform rational B-splines) modeling tools. All but one of these tools generate a new geometry by making a spline or splines a child of the NURBS modeling object. The splines inside this generator define certain profiles of the object and may be changed at any time, giving you serious editing capabilities. A wide variety of objects, like the beautifully crafted forms in Anders Kjellberg’s rich still life (Figure 3-1), can be made with NURBS tools. In this chapter, you’ll be using these tools to create different parts of an animated box with lots of widgets, lights, and sounds.
