Tool Kit 2: Photometric Lights

The tutorial on Photometric lights was helpful, The use of real world lighting data to light a 3d scene seemingly can really help creating natural realistic light, if that is what is wanted for the scene. Its very cool that Maya and Arnold make using this data incredibly easy, and as simple as plugging a file into the right node. It will be interesting to see how this lighting system could effect renders though, whether the render time goes up by a large amount or not. The main take away I got from this tutorial was how noisy scenes that are enclosed can get, and how regimented you need to be about de noising parts of your image.

Major Creature 4 Texturing

Major Creature 4 Texturing The texturing process is one I enjoy and feel confident in because of this I was able to sit through the process in a few days and generate the outcome. I came back to these textures a few days later to darken the textures over all once I saw then in Arnold. I also increased the level of dirt in the textures as they looked to clean.

Tool Kit 2: Physical Sky

Tool Kit 2: Physical Sky In this tutorial I learnt about the physical sky in Arnold and how it can be used to easily mimic time of day when rendering exterior shots for animations. Using a variation of elevation, Turbidity, intensity and Azimuth you can create the different angles of sky light you would see in real life. Other settings that can be used to push a stylistic approach include sun tint, sky tint and sun size. These can be used to create strange effects that are stylised and aren't meant to look photo real. Day1. Mid Day. Morning/Evening. Foggy Day. Stylised Lighting.
