Importing US Census and ESRI data into Grashopper using Heron | |
---|---|
This tutorial uses the Heron plugin in order to bring in US Census data and ESRI Demographics into Grasshopper from the web for mapping purposes.
Grasshopper |
Creating and Rendering an Animation with Bongo and VRay | |
---|---|
The purpose of this workflow is to introduce Bongo, the animation plug-in that works in Rhino, focusing on the user interface and primary animation tools and techniques, culminating in how Bongo interacts with the VRay rendering engine to create a short video file.
VRay |
The Basic Vray Rendering Workflow | |
---|---|
This workflow will showcase the steps necessary to create a basic interior rendering with the Vray for Rhino plug in. The workflow will cover basic camera setup, sun and sky, and materials to create a convincing, high quality rendering.
Rhinoceros for OSX , VRay |
Day-to-Night Photomontage | |
---|---|
This workflow demonstrates how to realistically turn a building photo taken in the day into a night photo with rain, reflection, and additional scene elements. Emphasis will be placed on the use of layer masks as essential editing tools that overlay rather than corrupt the original image.
Photoshop CS5 |
Post-Processing an Interior Rendering Using Photoshop | |
---|---|
This workflow will teach how to use a variety of post-processing techniques in Photoshop to create an interior rendering that effectively conveys material and lighting effects.
