Title: Graduation Work
Post by: TomLoux on 2013-11-16, 11:34:57

Hey there!

I'm making a architectural short for my graduation work. And before I was a avid user of vray. But since I stumbled onto corona I fell in love with it.

Right now i'm still tweaking settings. Reading my way trough the forum.

Some things i need to solve :

• overall time per frame / overall quality ( its gonna be short ; 30 to 40 secs teaser watchamacallit )
• Render passes. I know how to enable them, but from what i'm guessing is it's like vray ? I have to tell the render the max number of passes and then they will be rendered ?
• Glass material for the windows, some soft hdri reflections would be nice
• how to save all the frames and there passes in different folders, like all the renders do

If you have any tips or advice. Feel free to chime in :D i'm always searching for some solid advice.

Thank you !

Hey santa,

yeah i know , i'm still adding props as i go along. There should be more books , posters with frames , rugs and what not in there.
Behind the walls on the left there are also some rooms ( kitchen , bed , ... )

If I have the time after all my other course finals are done. ( I still need to render out a VFX explosion scene ) i'm planning to render those two.

The roof? I guess you mean the facade of the building. Well it's just a plain unwrap of the building.
 I wanted to paint in the lines of  the concrete ,so I decided to unwrap it.
