*Some professional models will be provided for free to students, specifically the architecture and everything that is inside (furniture), and the basic terrain base.
Photorealism is often hard to achieve because the amount of the amount of detail you need to add to your scene in order to achieve it. It doesn’t have to be this way, though. With the proper professional tools, it is relatively fast and easy to add enormous amount of photorealistic details to your 3ds Max scene. In this course, we will explore those tools, including:
- V-Ray
- Forest Pack PRO
- Quixel Suite (Megascans, Bridge and Mixer)
Students will use these tools specifically to quickly create a 3d environment that is fully photorealistic, complete with photoscanned models, scatters, photoscanned materials, professional models and atmospherics. Students will also go over a professional post-processing workflow for environment scenes.
WHAT TO EXPECT
This is not a beginning course for 3ds Max, but rather a course about unlocking 3ds Max using 3rd party tools to quickly create amazing 3d environments. Students will be surprised at how easily they can improve their scenes with proper knowledge of the tools and workflow. Below is a basic outline of what to expect:
