Dynamic Atmospheres adding Depth and Drama

This advanced tutorial will cover how to add realistic thunder clouds into your shot that includes 3D-Motion. I will go through my process of my Cinema 4D scene set-up including the lighting in Corona Renderer.

I will also work in After Effects to make a final composite of animated RAW Clouds assets and finally a CC Glass + Trapcode Particular rain simulation.
