A Black Hole is nothing without a glowing disk of gas and other goodies. It is our supermassive solemn duty to simulate one using C4D, Turbulence FD and rendering it in Arnold.

00:00 – Intro

00:18 – Start with a Disc

00:42 – Displace the Disc

01:12 – Spin & scale dat shit to swirl the sim

02:12 – Setting up the Turbulence FD Container & Emitter

03:32 – How to simulate a flaming pineapple slice in C4D

03:59 – Tweaking Vorticity in TFD to add scale to fluid simulations

04:30 – Setting up Texture Emission based on Animated Noise in Turbulence FD

07:04 – Adding a UV map (because otherwise it don’t work)

07:35 – Setting up shading for the Accretion Disc

07:49 – How to time-freeze fluid simulations in Turbulence FD

08:31 – Placing the accretion disc around the black hole

08:59 – Cloning the TFD sim to beef it up a bit

09:35 – Shading the Photon Sphere / Photon Ring

10:44 – Animating the accretion disk

11:00 – Have a supermassive discount off the Motion Design Course Process of Motion.

11:32 – Final bye-bye
