Some great content and assets on here, it's great you can request stuff too! I dont think there's anything else out there like it!Massive time saver
As a freelancer it can be very time consuming to build everything from the ground up. The ever-growing library of assets in the CG Shortcuts Membership is a massive time saver!Yey! Subtitles!
I was already a CG Shortcuts Patron, but everything is better orgainized and easier to navigate here on the site. Plus there's Korean subtitles!Saved me big time!
Membership has saved my butt many times, I love that I can literaly ask any question and get it answered before my project deadline.The best training
Dave is one of the best C4D teachers out there, he has a real ability to make complex topics easy to comprehend.Super helpful!
CG Shortcuts helped me out massively when I started out. I’m now working full time in C4D but I come back all the time to brush up on my skills.Highly recommended!
Dave has answered SO MANY of my questions and even made tutorials to help me out. Can't thank him enough.Worth it
Cant believe you can get access to all this for just 25 bucks! Makes a refreshing change to the usual overpriced courses out there.Great!
I learnt more in 2 months of membership than I did in the last 5 years. Join up, you wont regret it!We believe learning should be affordable to all so we try to keep the prices as low as we possibly can. All proceeds go back into CG Shortcuts so we can pay for our software and hosting, and so we can keep on spreading the C4D love.

Yearly and Lifetime
Monthly
There are many tutorials included with membership, covering mainly Cinema 4D, Redshift and Octane. We also look at Daz Studio and a few small plugins. Cinema 4D is really the only software you need though - Redshift now comes free with the software (CPU version) so we recommend using Redshift Renderer (however most renderers are very similar these days so the concepts shown in either renderer will be applicable to the other.
You can get a free trial version of Cinema 4D and Redshift here.
7am – 3pm Sunday to Thursday AEST (UTC +10). We're based in Australia.
Lifetime membership gives you access to everything on our site, all courses, all tutorials, all downloads and support, as well as the ability to request content and vote for what topics we cover next. Unlike the Monthly or Yearly membership, lifetime is yours forever so you also get unlimited access to anything we add in the future (we upload new stuff pretty much every week).
Monthly is charged Monthly from the date you joined.
Yearly is charged yearly from the date you joined.
Lifetime is charged only once and does not renew - you have access forever.
It's super rare, but yes;) We do offer refunds on Yearly and Lifetime memberships only - full details on our refunds page.
Membership here on our website is a more complete package because Patreon has several limitations.
Here's the key advantages on each platform:
