The work of architect María Alarcón can be summarized in one sentence: transforming spatial ideas into visual content. But, as easy as it may seem to define, her day-to-day work involves a range of techniques and disciplines that go from drawing sketches to developing realistic 3D images for architecture.
In this course, learn the basics of rendering a SketchUp architectural model using V-Ray. See how to use and edit V-Ray materials, learn how to position the camera and create scenes, and discover techniques for lighting the scene with artificial or natural light.
Description
Start the course by getting to know Maria and her career, from its beginnings to today. Review some of her influences in the world of design, and take a look at a summary of what she teaches during the course.
Learn how to organize your SketchUp model to facilitate your workflow with V-Ray. Next, see how V-Ray works, its toolbars, and the main window, the Asset Editor. Finally, Maria explains how V-Ray's lights work.
In the next unit, see an example of how you can move from a SketchUp image to a more realistic image by positioning cameras, lighting, applying materials, and editing the image using the V-Ray viewer.
Finally, learn how to edit the image with a post-production program like Adobe Photoshop, and Maria recommends some tools for geolocating the model.
