Learn how to create a flickering text effect using Cinema 4D. VideoFort Don shows you how to create flickering text by creating a text layer and dropping it into extrude NURBS.

From there you duplicate the text, create a circle (approximate radius 2 cm), and drop both those into a sweep NURBS layer. Now you have a 3D text to add a flicker effect. From there you create a luminance layer and drop it on the sweep NURBS layer. To create the flicker effect you will turn on and off the sweep NURBS layer’s visibility by setting keyframes in the timeline.
