HDRI video tutorials


#1

Hi all,

More free video tutorials for you, they’re 10/15 minutes long each, so they’re pretty large.

Adding an HDRI map to a scene inc. info about new ‘World’ mapping options, map types and exposure.

http://homepage.mac.com/cake_or_death/hdri/HDRI2.mov (98megs)
Setting up HDRI lighting, the band angle, and how to get the HDRI map’s sun to be where you want it to be. This video also includes a quick explanation of how GI works as well.

Using HDRI lighting with reverse illumination, using secondary lights and general tips on rendering interiors with GI.

I hope they are of some use,
Ian

Thanks for the video’s Ian - as usual informative (and funny)!

Went to your site afterwards and went through your links and found myself wondering what happened to David Argemi. He was always so polite and helpfull whenever I had a question or problem with one of his plugs. Any info?

Thanks :slight_smile:

David is still around and using the software… He’s a ridiculously busy man though from what I hear. I believe his remaining Konk products are just about ready to be shipped as UBs, so hopefully we will see them soon!

Best,
Ian

Stupendous Ian.

This going to help a lot of users including me, who have been out of the rendering seat for a while.
