Maxon bets on training with the Student Version of Cinema 4D R14

The latest edition of this 3D software is offered with Fully Functional Licenses to help animation and design students achieve success quickly.

Maxon today announced the availability of a free, fully functional Cinema 4D R14 Student Edition. The current version marks a global expansion initiative to empower students, without access restrictions, to the same professional 3D tools that artists use to demonstrate their skills, without budget limitations.

Harald Egel, Co-founder and CEO of Maxon, commented: "Maxon remains committed to providing students and educators with easy-to-use and empowering 3D software tools to help them push their creativity to higher levels. Free access to our Student Edition of CINEMA 4D promises a benefit to students in various fields of study: graphic design, motion graphics, film, animation, architecture and product design. We are very excited to offer students this comprehensive introduction to the world of 3D and help them accelerate their success and obtain professional results in the real world.”

The functionality of the free Cinema 4D student edition only differs slightly from the package used by professionals around the world for their high-quality productions. Students receive a special version of Cinema 4D R14 Studio, including all the features such as the physical rendering engine, Hair, MoGraph, Sketch and Toon, a powerful set of character animation tools, and libraries full of objects and materials.

Maxon also offers educational institutions a very affordable price for Cinema 4D Studio licenses. All files created with the student version are fully compatible with the commercial versions.

The Cinema 4D R14 Student Edition license is available to qualified students of higher education institutes. Students can register online and can quickly get up and running once their status has been verified. To make learning with Cinema 4D even easier and faster, numerous tutorials covering various aspects of the application will also be included. Furthermore, the portal Maxon's video training program also offers hundreds of free video tutorials in English.
