The Tuesday morning briefing that keeps working C4D artists sharp.
One focused email every week. Three curated tutorials, two downloadable scene files, the freshest Redshift and Octane presets, and the studio job leads most artists never see. No filler, no roundups, no lifestyle content.
Read by 47,000+ Cinema 4D artists across 142 countries. Founded 2015. Unsubscribe in one click.
A predictable package. Every Tuesday.
The brief is short by design. Three sections, every issue, no surprises — so you know exactly what you’re giving up ten seconds of your inbox for.
-
01
Version-stamped tutorials
One curated Cinema 4D tutorial per issue, every UI element tagged with the exact release it was recorded in — R2024, S26 or R25 — so you never waste an afternoon hunting menus that moved.
-
02
Production-ready scene files
Two downloadable
.c4dprojects per issue — rigged characters, lighting setups, motion-graphic templates — pulled from the 12,400-file library and hand-checked by our editors before they ship. -
03
Monday-refreshed job leads
The freshest studio openings from Buck, Giant Ant, Psyop, B-Reel and 60+ other shops — refreshed every Monday, never recycled, no “entry-level” filler. Senior, mid, and freelance roles only.
Curated by working C4D artists. Not content marketing.
C4D Portal started in 2015 in a Berlin studio apartment, founded by Maxon Certified Trainer Lukas Behrens because the Cinema 4D community had no focused hub — only generalist 3D blogs that treated C4D as a checkbox. Ten years later we’re still a team of 11 full-time editors, all working C4D artists on real client work, writing the brief we’d want to read ourselves.
That’s the whole pitch. No “10x your renders” promises, no AI-flavoured courses, no guru funnels. Every tutorial is version-stamped. Every scene file opens. Every job lead is checked. We’ve been featured in Greyscalegorilla’s 2023 community roundup and partnered with Maxon for official plugin distribution since 2019 — not because we’re the official site, but because the community voted with their inbox for a decade.
