V-Ray 3 for SketchUp features interactive rendering technology that allows users to see results immediately upon changes to the model. In this course, Brian Bradley both introduces and helps to solidly ground you in your ability to use the tools and features found in the powerful V-Ray for SketchUp rendering solution. After he familiarizes you with the V-Ray interface, Brian demonstrates how to add illumination to your scenes using the program's versatile lighting tools. He shows how to work with different light types for adding both artificial light and natural-looking daylight. In addition, he covers the V-Ray camera, materials, map types, render elements, FX tools, and more.
Instructor. Brian Bradley is a self-taught 3D artist and business owner. Brian started experimenting with creative software and 3D applications around the end of 1993, wondering whether or not he could make a living working with such cool tools! By 1998 he had started his own multimedia business, working on projects ranging from flying logos to graphic design for clothing and vehicles to entire product and architectural visualization projects. While learning the tools of his trade, Brian developed a keen awareness of the need for well-explained, high-quality training that could make software tools accessible and open to anyone who wanted to learn them.
KeyShot Viewer is a free, stand-alone application that enables secure sharing of KeyShot scenes for interactive, photo-realistic 3D model viewing, presentation and configuration, using the same real-time ray tracing render engine as KeyShot to produce amazing visuals with speed and quality. The Best 3D Rendering Software to Create Amazing Visuals. KeyShot is everything you need to create amazing visuals fast. The real-time 3D rendering workflow displays results instantly and reduces the time it takes to create realistic product shots. Lumion is compatible with almost all 3D design software tools and offers seamless import of SketchUp files. It accepts both native.SKP as well as other common 3D file formats, such as COLLADA (.DAE) and.FBX. The tutorial on the right shows you how easy it is to import your SketchUp models into Lumion.
In 2007 he turned the attention of his family business toward the full-time teaching of the graphic design and production tools he loves to others. By: Scott Onstott course. 5h 24m 24s.

My name is Brian Bradley, and I am really looking forward in this course to taking a look at how we can make use of the extremely powerful V-Ray 3 render engine as a lighting and rendering solution in SketchUp. As the course has partly been designed to help newer users get up and running with V-Ray, we will take a look in Chapter One at how and where we can find V-Ray tools and controls inside the SketchUp user interface, as well as having a good look at the controls found on the V-Ray frame buffer window, as well. We can then move on to V-Ray's extremely powerful and versatile lighting tools, learning essentially how to add illumination to our scenes. This will include an examination of the V-Ray sun and sky options that can be used to add natural looking daylight to our renders, as well as at the V-Ray light types that can be used to mimic more artificial looking, or manmade light sources.
Global illumination is, of course, an extremely important aspect of. Practice while you learn with exercise files. Watch this course anytime, anywhere. Course Contents. Introduction Introduction. V-Ray 3.6 Update Features V-Ray 3.6 Update Features. 1.
