Digital Tutors - Exterior Rendering Techniques with mental ray and Maya | ISO | 756 MB
The series of lessons, we will explore the various tools, techniques, and procedures that we can use when lighting an outdoor scene in Maya. We will begin the tutorial by learning how to set up a realistic outdoor illumination source, and how to simulate physically-accurate light behavior within our scene. We will then discuss the importance of incorporating a proper linear workflow into our pipeline, which includes using gamma-correction on our textures and materials within Maya. We will also see how we can use a post application like Photoshop to add some finishing touches to our final render with a minimal amount of effort. By the time you complete this course, you will be much better prepared to overcome many of the common challenges faces when rendering an outdoor environment in Maya.
In this Professional Series course, we will explore some the techniques and concepts used during the lighting and rendering of our transforming robot project. In Volume 9 of this ‘Transforming Robot Production Pipeline’ series, we will discuss the techniques that were used and some of the issues that were encountered during the lighting and rendering of this transforming robot project. We will look at how we went about matching the lighting between our CG and live-action elements, setting up our materials and textures, and rendering all of the passes and other information that our compositing artists will be using during Volume 10 of this series.

Our short film is literally being produced throughout the term and we’ll have first hand experience of working in post during a live project.
3ds Max Rendering Techniques with Christopher Nichols - Speed vs Quality in Vray
English | MOV | SVQ3 1356 kbps 15 fps | 1024x768 | AAC Mono 22 KHz | 264 MB Genre: elearning
If there is one thing that can truly control the balance of speed versus quality in Vray it is image sampling. Image sampling is basically part of anti-aliasing. This tab can take your renderings from 20 second quick tests to 30 minute high quality renders without having to adjust any other aspect of the rendering. They control anything from fine detailed textures, to glossy reflections and refraction, to aspects like depth-of-field and motion blur, all at once. This tutorial helps to make sense of each one and simplify the process. Control the quality of the rendering in the most efficient way.
Digital Tutors - Rendering Low Resolution Environments in Maya (2011) DVD
English | VP6F 782x646 | MP3 96 kbps | 998 MB Genre: eLearning
In this series of lessons we will explore a variety of techniques for creating realistic lighting which can also convey a sense of mood and atmosphere within Maya.
Throughout these lessons we will learn how to use lights and shading network modifications to create the appearance of real light sources, as well as using lights to call attention to particular areas of our scene. This course will be placing emphasis on efficient rendering practices, and some guidelines that you can use in your day-to-day work to help your renders proceed as quickly as possible. We will also take some time to learn how volume primitives and 3D textures in Maya can be used to create complex volumetric effects within our scene.
