Keep yourself competitive, improve your skills and master the complex rendering system with the V-Ray for 3ds Max course. Solidify your understanding of lighting, materials and rendering principles with this 11-hour course. Also learn the concepts, tools and workflows used on a daily basis when working in professional production pipelines.

Once a level of proficiency is reached with the interface, we will begin to systematically introduce many of V-Ray’s features. We will address lighting engines, texturing your scenes with the V-Ray materials, object properties, various geometry types and environmental lens effects. In conclusion, more technical areas within V-Ray such as unified dmc sampler will be discussed. This will allow you to confront many different rendering situations by comprehending how to balance quality against speed.

The course will conclude by applying all the material you learned with three production-level case studies.
