ABSTRACT

The last stage of the production will guide users through the steps of utilizing key render elements to enhance materials in the scene. A nice and balanced night mood will be created to make the general lighting more appealing. Numerous Photoshop tools, filters and techniques from previous chapters will be reused to improve the overall image and help integrate people into the scene. This chapter discusses the process of using key render elements to enhance materials and the overall lighting in the night exterior scene. While the final image differed from previous ones, most of the techniques and tools implemented in this tutorial were similar to ones. Users were navigated through the intricacies of texturing, lighting, rendering and enhancing the renders in post-production. While each shot had its unique challenges, users were consistently steered through the process of delivering each shot successfully.
