You could do it with a Boole. I created the 2 letters as extrudes, rotated one 90 degrees. I put them both in a Boole and set the Boole to A Intersect B. This creates some gaps at the top…probably could fiddle with it a bit, but I just made everything editable and combined it into a single mesh. Then I just bridged the holes.

I have tutorials that go through all of the basics, lighting, texturing and mograph.
They are free as well.

Probably a combination of techniques, but the beginning certainly looks like Plexus in After Effects.

Did you try reversing the order of the splines in your sweepnurb?
Put the circle above the path for the text.

If you need half of a sphere why not just use the hemisphere mode?

One way would be to add a null to the scene,put it at the end of the rocket where you want it, rename it Emitter and put the external compositing tag on that null.
Then make that null a child of your rocket.
Unlike real life, in Cinema 4D a child will do what the parent tells it to (or where to go).
Hope that helps.

So will you be using the regular emitter or thinking particles?
I can’t think of any way to freeze and reverse the regular particles without rendering them separately and then compositing them back in.
As far as thinking particles go, I’m not an expert…so there might be a way with them.
Is this ultimately going to be rendered as a quicktime or some other format?
