Title: Scandinavian Teaser
Post by: arczi on 2020-02-13, 14:22:59
Hello!

About 3 months ago I started "another personal scandinavian interior project". It turned out to be quite bigger than I thought:) Initially I went for few wide shots and a couple of closeups. The goal was to create as photorealistic renders as I possibly can and also to play around with ornatrix to achieve realistic looking fur. Well, it took nearly 1 month of rendering and I ended up creating 1 minute animation, vr tour, 50+ wide shots and 150+ closeups:) I gladly share the teaser of animation. Hope you like it!

Love the colors & lighting! Interior design, too.

Only humble suggestion: changing direction of the sunlight within a camera-slo-mo looks a bit irritating in contrast to that high level of realism.

How did you achieve the hazy effect like in shots '00669292947671.5e58326ed8990.jpg' ?

It is a coronavolumemtl with high directionality- something around 0,9 and a little bit of color grading. Pushing the bottom part of the curve a little bit higher seems to do it's job.

Great job!!! It is really something special. On the other side a that song is also great! Can you please let me know the song name?

Very nice, and for shots like, ' c74c7b92947671.5e58326ebce05.jpg' - not including the physical light sources (e.g. lamps), the scene is lit with sun / sky, or sun / HDRI, only HDRI?
Title: Re: Scandinavian Teaser
Post by: arczi on 2020-03-05, 08:47:41
Thanks! It is only hdri for the main light- PG 1658 in this case.

Going through a period of frustration with lighting at the moment, so it is surprising (?) to hear that the entire scene is lit with only HDRi, although I hear this so often. Thanks for sharing +1

I feel your struggle... I was feeling hopeless for years until it clicked so you know, keep working and eventually you'll get there!
Title: Re: Scandinavian Teaser
Post by: cjwidd on 2020-03-05, 22:35:01
Thank you, I appreciate the encouragement :)

Any tips, advice, workflow notes, articles, or tutorials, that really helped make it 'click' for you?

That's kind of funny because I was looking at some making ofs/ tutorials recently and there's all the knowledge one needs but back in the days they seemed like nothing useful is there..
The truth is the best way to up your game is to play the game :) I was constantly trying to figure out stuff and at some point it just got better. So i just hope you have the motivation and time to spend because that will get you there the fastest :)

Thank you!

It took about one week to render the stills and about 3 weeks for the animation (using my workstation at home and another 3 machines at work)
