This course will look at the fundamentals of rendering in Arnold. We'll go through the different light types available, cameras, shaders, Arnold's render settings and finally how to split an image into render passes (AOV's), before we then reassemble it i

Achieving realistic building and interior scenes
I've never modelled any realistic buildings nor interior scenes, but i want to try...
Does anyone have tips to achieve this quickly and annoyingless ?
Use nurbs or polys ...etc (any tip is welcome)

Making things realistic in my opinion requires lots of things and objects in the scene to look at, well made textures, and most deffinently a good lighting set-up. You need shadows just as much as you need light. There needs to be some contrast. You need to look around your own room or an office buliding and see what things they have in their rooms and incorporate that stuff into your scene. Blank walls in a room don't help make it look realistic.
And if you're doing a bulding, use polys. Chairs, tables, and the like should be polygons as well. Use nurbs for more organic surfaces like a curved glass, vases, pots, and other curvey things. You can use Sub-divisions for numerous things as well, so don't forget them.

Normally, I get students who wanna to castles, and more organic-looking scenery, but you have kept it "down-to-earth" with something that I think will be VERY challenging, without being too hard
Can't wait to see some WIP's!
