Project: FANGTASM Vol.2 — Underground Event Cinematic & Video Poster Client/Venue: ://about blank (Berlin) Overview: A 46-second full-pipeline 3D motion design teaser and vertical video poster (1080x1920, 60 FPS) built for an underground dark techno event. Moving away from flat 2D promos, the project delivers a gritty industrial dark sci-fi aesthetic featuring a transformable brutalist cube with complex mechanics. Pipeline & Technical Breakdown: 3D Modeling & Environment: Hard-surface modeling in Cinema 4D (heavy blast doors, rotating multi-gear assemblies, hydraulic valves, copper busbars, and multi-segmented Tesla coils). Shading & Texturing: Advanced Redshift node networks with procedural weathering, realistic rust, weathered iron, wet cracked asphalt, and TriPlanar concrete mapping. Python Automation: Custom Python scripts driving procedural high-voltage electrical arcs (lightning), cascading breakdowns, and precise light-flash sync. Lighting & Rendering: Multi-layered Redshift GPU setup with volumetric fog, skimming/rim lighting, and hardware ray tracing. Compositing & Sound: Cryptomatte multi-pass compositing in After Effects with custom grading, motion blur, and a synchronized industrial soundscape (metal impacts, machinery screeches, and Tesla discharges). Tech Stack: Maxon Cinema 4D, Maxon Redshift, Python, Adobe After Effects.

Cyberpunk/Rave Teaser Project — Visual Development & Hard-Surface Renders ​Working on a heavy cyberpunk/rave teaser project (Cinema 4D + Redshift). Here is a first look at the static layout and hard-surface design framework, focusing on brutalist industrial environments, gritty textures, and atmospheric lighting. ​No complex simulation overload—just raw material definition, precise framing, and moody cyber-aesthetic depth. The full animated sequence is coming up next. ​Tools: Cinema 4D, Redshift, Custom Hard-Surface Modeling ​Aesthetic: Industrial rave, dark tech, tactile wear & tear, raw concrete and rusted steel contrasting with neon. ​Feedback and thoughts are welcome! Let’s build. 🚀 ​#3D #Cinema4D #Redshift #MotionDesign #Cyberpunk #HardSurface #VisualDevelopment #RaveCulture #3DArtist #Portfolio

Animated Event Video Poster | Tag der Clubkultur ​Dynamic motion design and video poster created for the "COREspecs" event as part of Berlin's official Tag der Clubkultur festival series. ​The visual concept merges an authentic underground Berlin aesthetic—featuring iconic transit motifs, gritty textures, and acid neon accents—with clean, structured typographic hierarchy and a fully synchronized lineup reveal. ​Software & Tools: Adobe After Effects (motion design, compositing, visual effects, and expression-driven audio reactivity), Suno AI (custom industrial/EBM sound design and score). ​Deliverable: Vertical looping video teaser optimized for social media promotion and digital event boards. #

Behind the scenes of my latest motion design project. Built entirely in After Effects, focusing on dark mode UI aesthetics, custom expression-driven data counters, and smooth programmatic transitions. No stock templates—just clean vector hierarchy, deep indigo color grading, and precise kinetic typography. #MotionDesign #AfterEffects #UIAnimation #VFX #DesignProcess #MotionGraphics #CreativeDirection
