Complex UV Layout in Maya
Over the last couple of years UV layout in Maya has changed for the better. In this course we're going to be taking a look at some of those changes as we UV map an entire character

The lighting setup looks good but there are a couple things bothering me about the rendering, the first day shot looks a little washed out, the second daylight shot looks overblown and the night shots have some blotchiness on the walls, also I think you need to bump up either the shadow rays or the samples on the area lights for the monitors, I'm seeing grain in the shadows for the keyboard and mouse etc. These still look good though. Keep it up.

jr who,
i'm not sure what happened with the dots on the floor, i think it was the camera angle and the bright bit around the tv was because i moved the area light back too far so it showed up on the geometry!
danotronXX,
thanks, they werent too bad. at 720x526 they were only about 10-15 for the colour pass and only a couple of mins for the occlusion pass.

Don't be satisfied with what you can do but rather strive to do the things you can't do!

cheers, yeah i wasnt to happy woth the keyboard, i always meant to go back and redo the textures but run out of time.
the day one is lit with global Illumination, has about half million photos with an intesity of 3mill. there is also an area light with a small intensity which covers the whole cabinet as it was very dark inside.
the night one use final gather with secondary difuse bounces. the screens are just area lights with very blurred pictures of the monitor and tv screen plugged into there out colour. and the lamp has a mia_point_light plugged into it as it gives for a better fall off.
