Cinema 4D

[George Charoupas]

Hello, I will try to answer your questions from my perspective and as I understand them.

2. The answer is very subjective. Depends to many factors like a) How much you like 3D? b) How many hours per week are you willing to spend on learning Cinema 4D, c)How familiar are you with similar programs? It can be some weeks. It is purely trying and learning new things everyday (if possible).

3. Seeing several courses may guide you to the right direction. After that is basically you, trying the things you learned from the courses. Since Cinema 4D is a platform with so many capabilities, I would suggest (if you are completely knew) to see some courses for very beginners, in order to get familiar with the basic principles of the software and after that to watch courses according to your liking. Stick with courses with high rating and you will be good.

4. After learning a new thing try to use it on your own. So lets say you watched a course about modeling a sofa. After that try to create a different sofa using what you learned. Some times there might be new challenges, try googling them. You are not alone. Someone might have faced the same issue. Remember, getting better requires a lot of practice. No matter how many courses and tutorials you watch, if you dont practice yourself, you wont be able to get better.

5. Most of the time begginers are afraid to try new things. Experiment and you will see a great results. Also try to learn other software as well. Photoshop is very essential. Also knowing other 3D software (like blender or 3Ds Max) can be very beneficial.

I hope my answer finds you well.
