Course content

1 section8 lectures5h 1m total length
  • Composition and lighting. Part 131:34

    Visualize a forest lake cabin exterior in 3ds max + Corona render, using Quixel Megascans and Max Tree Compilation for rocks, dock, and vegetation, with evening lighting and rule-of-thirds composition.

  • Compositon and lighting. Part 234:12

    Demonstrates nocturnal illumination in 3ds max with corona render using hdr maps, corona select for real-time map swaps, and exposure, white balance, and glass reflections for a convincing night interior.

  • Detalization.Part 147:05

    Explore detailed scene creation in 3ds max using corona render, Megascans assets, and proxy workflows to build a rock-strewn forest cabin setting, with material setup, vegetation scattering, and optimization techniques.

  • Detalization.Part 244:00

    Experiment with real-time previews to refine lighting, apply water and rock materials with Corona render, adjust displacement, and use multi-layer ripples and distance maps to create realistic reflections.

  • Rendering. Part 138:19

    Practice advanced rendering in 3ds max with Corona renderer, detailing a forest cabin scene by using Cobbler script, advanced painter, and scatter to place rocks, grass, and vegetation.

  • Rendering.Part 256:54

    Learn to refine a forest cabin render by enhancing soil detail, expanding scatters, using displacement and Megascans assets, and performing post-processing in Photoshop to achieve realistic rocks and sky.

  • Postproduction. Part 123:56

    Master postproduction for a 3ds max plus corona render: create alpha and water layers, use reflection and refraction passes, and color-correct in Photoshop for cohesive evening lighting and reflections.

  • Postproduction. Part 225:07

    Apply postproduction in photoshop to add bloom and lens flare, then merge layers, adjust color for color correction with camera raw, and use z-depth masks for fog.

Requirements

  • 3ds max from version 2019 and higher installed from the official website. The trial version is suitable.
  • Corona render from version 4 and higher installed from the official site, trial version is possible.
  • Adobe Photoshop any version from the official site.

Description

I'm excited to help you learn how to create a beautiful cabin by the lake and visualize its exterior. This project was implemented during the recording of the workshop and even received Editor's Choice on the Evermotion website.

If you're interested in improving your 3D exterior visualization skills, then this workshop is perfect for you! We'll teach you the whole process of creating a landscape, working with vegetation, lighting, and post-processing techniques using Photoshop.

Here's what you can expect to learn during this workshop:


  • Composition: You'll learn how to prepare the scene, set up cameras, and consider the composition of the angle.

  • Lighting: We'll show you how to create realistic lighting with HDRI.

  • Models: We'll teach you how to prepare vegetation and quickly fill the scene with models.

  • Materials: You'll learn how to work with exterior materials.

  • Quixel Megascans: We'll show you how to use Quixel Megascans scanned materials and 3D models.

  • Post-production: You'll learn how to use Photoshop and matte painting for color correction and effects.

By following some simple steps, you can create a picture just like the ones we'll show you. You'll also receive the source files of the project, including the scene and PSD file.

The knowledge you'll gain from completing this master class will help you improve your 3D exterior visualization skills. You can apply this knowledge to other, more complex projects and understand the process of making exterior designs.

Who this course is for:

  • The course is aimed at 3D artists and architects who want to improve their 3D renders in 3ds max and try to work in Corona render
