Aaron F. Ross – 3ds Max: Rendering With Arnold

Arnold is a high-quality rendering engine in 3ds Max 2018. Realistic rendering is easier than ever with this brute force Monte Carlo ray tracer.

The physically-based rendering of Arnold accurately simulates light in the real world, but allows the breaking of physical laws to achieve artistic styles. This course is an overview of the core features of Arnold for lighting, materials, and rendering in 3ds Max.

Topics include:
– Arnold rendering concepts
– Arnold lights such as quad, spot, and distant
– Modifying Arnold object properties
– Filtering light with the gobo filter modifier
– Image-based lighting with Skydome
– Daylight simulation with Physical Sky
– Arnold Standard Surface material parameters
– Diffuse, opacity, and bump mapping
– Rendering refractions with Transmission
– Building an Arnold shading network
– Test rendering with utility map
– Mesh subdivision and displacement at render time
– Atmospheric perspective with scene environment fog
– Rendering a spherical environment with VR Camera
