Hey everyone!
I’d like to share an excellent deep-dive on David Sujono’s cinematic workflow using Character Creator 5 (CC5), iClone, CC4D Tools, and Cinema 4D + Redshift.
Who’s behind this?
David Sujono is a freelance 3D motion designer based in Sydney, Australia, formerly serving as 3D Lead at Collider Studio. He has earned top honors including 1st place in Rokoko’s Perfect Loop Challenge and 2nd place in Pwnisher’s Chasm’s Call Challenge. In this showcase, he channels a strong sci-fi aesthetic into a polished short film titled Riding the Digital Grid.
What’s the workflow about?
David breaks down a production-ready pipeline, including how he:
- Builds and customizes high-fidelity characters in CC5 using ActorMIXER and CC5 HD morphs
- Seamlessly transfers characters and animation into Cinema 4D with CC4D Tools, preserving rigs and Redshift materials
- Uses Rokoko mocap, iClone animation tools, and AccuLips for facial motion and lip-sync
- Designs procedural environments and completes the final look with Redshift rendering and After Effects polish
This article is a great example of how Reallusion tools fit into a real-world cinematic pipeline, especially for artists interested in character creation, mocap workflows, and Cinema 4D integration.
