MAXON has revealed the first step in its strategic alliance with Adobe Systems today, aimed at delivering a new level of integration between its 3D application, CINEMA 4D, and Adobe After Effects. The recently revealed next release of Adobe's industry leading software will include two MAXON technologies directly within the new Adobe After Effects: CINEWARE and CINEMA 4D Lite. CINEWARE: The New Live 3D Pipeline between CINEMA 4D and After Effects, which eliminates intermediate rendering between applications, is made possible by CINEWARE, which establishes a bridge between the two applications. One of the biggest benefits to artists will be seen in a streamlined workflow, enabling them not only to import native CINEMA 4D scenes directly as assets into After Effects but also to utilize CINEMA 4D's multi-pass workflow as layers. Users will benefit from decreased rendering time because CINEWARE makes CINEMA 4D's Advanced Rendering Engine available directly inside After Effects.
