Disintegration Effect with Vertex Map (C4D)

Today, we’re exploring an easy way to create a dynamic effect in your 3D scenes!

If you’ve ever watched the Marvel movie Endgame, you’re probably familiar with Thanos and his iconic disintegration effect. There are tons of tutorials showing different ways to recreate it in various software, but today we’re taking a fresh approach inside Cinema 4D.

In this tutorial, we’ll create a Disintegration Effect in Cinema 4D using a Vertex Map combined with an Emitter. This workflow gives you full control over how your object dissolves, spreads, and transforms over time, which makes it perfect for motion graphics, VFX, or creative animation.

It’s a simple setup with a lot of creative potential, so let’s grab your project and start building your disintegration effect in Cinema 4D with VFXrendering!
