Selective effect matte? How its done?
Hey guys, so this is my second ever post to cow.
Got a great response from my last post, so i thought i would give it another go.My problem today is with cinema 4d, and in particular this effect : https://vimeo.com/28581769
I want to replicate this effect. basically, i want to select an area ( the logo ) for the behavior to take place in (in this instance, cubes growing and shrinking along the y axis. )
I understand the priniciple of this, but have no idea what this technique is called – and thus, cannot find any tutorials on accomplishing something like this.
If anyone could point me in the right direction, it would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance,Justin.

I’m not sure how this is done here, but you can use the shader effector in mograph.
Making It Look Great 7 with Tim Clapham covers the use of this effector
There is a sample lesson (Halftone) which might shed some light on the technique. Anyway, I did something similar to what you’re doing but with a world map, I used a black and white image of the map on the shader and had this affecting my cloner object… so you could do it with a black on white version of the logo.
Sorry to be vague, hope this is useful and not a red herring!
