Project 2: Environmental Renders with Arnold

• Due Nov 5 by 11:59pm

• Points 25

• Submitting a file upload

• In this project, you will apply 3D production workflows to develop one complete interior 3D environment. The environment model should be based on observable reference and can be a mash-up of two real spaces. (For example, you can model a library space that’s a hybrid between the Penn library and the Free Library of Philadelphia. It should have observable qualities and models based on reference images that you can take.) The model should have at least 5 unique models (furniture, decorations, and at least one “hero model”). You will model and UV one cohesive 3D scene, create materials and texture sets, and submit 4 rendered images, all taken from different perspectives and/or with different lighting settings. All renders must be 1920x1080, generated in Maya using Arnold.

Current Issues

UV is not abundant enough

Diffuse light is not that obvious
