What's New?

Continuing an ongoing effort to make simulation and particle effects fast and easy, Cinema 4D users can create advanced particles using the new Follow Spline modifier, which makes it easy to flow particles along a vector shape. Every new subscription of Cinema 4D 2025 now includes access to the full power of Redshift rendering, enabling any Cinema 4D user to fully utilize GPU or CPU, which is ideal for rendering high-end 3D animations fast. Applying weights and forces to objects in rigid body simulations is now easy, while enhancements to Pyro also provide users more options to dial in a specific look. The new Field Driver tag will help with adding procedural animations to objects, a new Object Profiling Manager helps optimize viewport performance, and improved OCIO color management will ensure consistent color. Optimized exchange format support enables more integrated workflows, thanks to the possibility to export instances and skeletal animations to USD and work with presets stored in Substance 3D materials.

Award-Winning Mograph

MoGraph is a procedural modeling and animation toolset that gives motion designers the ability to quickly and easily create complex and abstract animations. At the heart of MoGraph is the Cloner object which allows you to duplicate objects in a variety of ways. Add MoGraph’s powerful collection of Effectors to the mix and you can put everything in limitless motion using sound, fracturing, fields, and so much more - often without creating a single keyframe! MoGraph is the go-to system for professional broadcast graphics designers and was recognized by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences with a Technical Achievement Award in 2019.
