For experimental 3d this week, we had to use the plain and formula effectors.
Plain Effector
I can use the plain effector to easily modify the arrangement and position of cloned objects in Cinema 4D. Its comprehensive settings in combination with other Effectors make it possible to create and animate endless types of object arrangements.
An example would be when companies reveal their 3D logo and all of the 3D letters fly in from the side and reveal after one-another etc
Formula Effector
Formulas use mathematical equations to make the 3D objects in your scene move or behave in a certain way. These formula’s usually look something like max(1-u;0) or sin((u + t) * pi2)
