For the introduction to Cinema 4D, the task was to create a 3D type/logo. In order to do this I just created the letters JP in Illustrator, and created a path. I saved this as an Illustrator 8 file in order to import it into Cinema 4D.
This is how the letters looked when I merged them into Cinema 4D.
I then used extrude NURBS on each of the letters. This creates the 3D effect that can be seen. I also added a floor and lighting which created a shadow, though selecting soft shadow in the lighting effects.
I then added a wood texture though the Cinema 4D presets.
This is the final render. I am happy with the result, and have learnt something new. Cinema 4D is defiantly a program that I intend to look further into.
