    Hi there can anyone link me to a tutorial that teach me how to morph objects in cinema 4D?
    For example a chair into a subwoffer.
    Thanks a lot

    You’re going to have some trouble morphing objects that are that disimilar. There are essentially three ways to do it:

    1. Morph Tag (Mocca): this allows you to morph between multiple variations of the same object, but the underlying geometry must be the same (same point order). So you would have to take a mesh and model the chair, and then move the points around to model a subwoofer;

    2. Thinking Particles>PBlurp: This essentially breaks up an object and reforms the fragments into a different object (see help file);

    3. MoGraph: clone objects onto one object and then use the inheritance effector to move them to another object.

    I knew about the morphtag, but the other tips are just great advice, thanks. It’s all about illusion ofcourse. Or maybe you can do this with after effects. Love to morph!
