V-Ray Training

V-Ray is a biased computer-generated imagery rendering software application developed by Bulgarian software company Chaos.

V-Ray is a commercial plug-in for third-party 3D computer graphics software applications and is used for visualizations and computer graphics in industries such as media, entertainment, film, and video game production, industrial design, product design, and architecture.

V-Ray is a rendering engine that uses global illumination algorithms, including path tracing, photon mapping, irradiance maps, and directly computed global illumination.

Course Highlights

Vray: 

• Vray is the industry standard for rendering in 3D Architectural Visualization. It is a render engine capable of plugging into the various modelling software. Vray for 3DS max is popular. Vray provides the lighting, materials, cameras, and rendering solutions for a large majority of 3D architectural imagery. Vray is notoriously tricky to get the hang of. The abundance of options and settings, vast material library, and unique interface make for a bit of a learning curve.

Lumion: 

• As for the timing, Lumion is generally speaking faster than Vray, one render takes seconds to minutes while Vray takes a bit longer in render if you want higher quality and this is due to the fact that the render in Lumion is by default, while the one with Vray is personalized according to the needs of users. Lumion is 3D rendering software made to help architects with two important things: 1) create beautiful renders and 2) create them quickly and easily. So if you have a 3D model that you want to bring to life, Lumion can help you convey the beauty of your design by unveiling it in its full, detail-rich context. Lumion becomes as much of a design tool as other user-friendly programs like Google SketchUp. The interface is so easy to use, that it can even be used in presentations of client meetings to run quickly through different options for fit and finish.
