    @MaxonC4D
    cool and thanks for the reply. it’s hard to expect a reply from channels belong to companies and celebrities.

  2. MaxonC4D says:

    @DragonAge2k Yes, we are MAXON, makers of CINEMA 4D. Welcome to our YouTube channel! As well as hints, tips, overviews, tutorials etc., on our channel you’ll find some very cool videos from CINEMA 4D users such as the Invasions short film, please see the info for the movie for credits. There are also some very cool videos that CINEMA 4D was used to help make in the favorites section.

    @MaxonC4D
    hey I saw the developer of C4d is Maxon. are you one of them?

  4. MaxonC4D says:

    @DragonAge2k Each 3D app has its strengths and weaknesses, and the main apps are vast. We recommend trying the demos of the various 3D apps, and seeing which one you like best. CINEMA 4D is well known for being easy to use. It is used in lots of different industries, but it is especially strong in broadcast/motion graphics. It has a great connection to apps like After Effects, has unique motion graphics tools, is on Mac and Windows, and has some very cool, easy to use dynamics tools.

    what made u select CINEMA 4D over 3D max and Maya?
    can create more realistic animations with CINEMA 4D??

  6. DragonAge2k says:

    wow looks so realistic.

    Wow…I wanted to watch more of this! Were those crop circles actually a love note to his lady back home? Soooo cute, wouldn’t that be funny if that were actually so with crop circles….some visitor leaving love notes to mates back home!

    Coll…… Bravo….

    @grodkowski It’s exciting to think that a potentially habitable planet is so relatively near, our own galaxy could be crammed with life never mind the billions of other galaxies.

    Back to the world of CINEMA 4D, the app used to make Invasions, the Sky object from the objects menu includes star constellations if you set the time to night, and you can animate the time.

    cool

  14. grodkowski says:

    Gliese 581g (As far as we can tell has a revolution and rotation that are at the same rates, so it is much like our moon – only one side would have *Starlight* while the other would be in darkness. So life would have to exist on the rim between light and dark. But there is a substantial amount of evidence that the atmosphere contains the materials for life and it is in the life zone of that solar system (Although reading a planet is much more difficult than a star, so we may be wrong).

    Most of The Cars albums had that one Ocasek/Hawkes composition. I wonder if this could be that one on “Move Like This”…

  40. twistedpompey says:

    The bass line sounds as though it’s been lifted straight out of ‘Daft Punk is Playing at My House’ by LCD Soundsystem

  41. twistedpompey says:

  42. ohraider says:

  44. pwreconomist says:

    Wonderful! I have enjoyed all of Ric’s solo pop (and not so pop) candy, but The CARS music, with Elliot, David and Greg just sounds…..well…..richer. Thank you guys for doing one more album.

  45. SenorSlopez says:

    am I the only one who is reminded of LCD Soundsystem?

  46. liberaljag says:

    Can’t wait for this record. Crossing my fingers and praying for a tour. R.I.P. Ben.
