THE MAKING OF CONTAINER HOUSE: SKETCHUP, V-RAY AND POST-PRODUCTION TUTORIAL
In this tutorial, you’re going to learn how to use Photoshop
and Picasa as a tool for post-production. The practice of post-production is important
to all visualizer which deserve an in-depth study and analysis. Some would say that rendering using different
photorealistic ‘render engine’ is enough in order to come-up with a convincingly
realistic photo. However, whatever you do,
don't stop there! There are some important things you need to do to your raw
render image before it's worthy of your portfolio. The primary functions of
photo editing softwares such as Photoshop, Picasa, Gimp etc. are usually to
correct color, to adjust light intensity, to insert entourage, to make bump map
material and many more that enables you to create your own compositional style.
SKETCHUP
MODELLING
The real deal
in achieving such photorealistic image is through detailed modelling with
proper application of texture and material settings.
STEP 2: Make
a copy of the shipping container model> Place it on top of the other
model> Insert 3D sliding doors and windows to your model.
|
STEP 3: Add some details to your container house model: roof, railings, balcony, deck, stairs etc. |
STEP 4: Click
on the ‘Paint Bucket’ tool
icon> Choose any applicable textures from the ‘materials pallet’> Click
on the face to apply the texture.
|
STEP 5: Insert 3D entourage in the scene |
V-RAY RENDERING
STEP 1: Apply the
following Vismat (V-Ray) materials to your model:
(a) Metal car paint/ Container metal paint
Car paint reflection
settings
|
Car paint red color 1
|
Car paint red color 2

STEP 3: Save
the following images:
Raw rendered
image
|
Alpha channel
|
POST-PRODUCTION
STEP 1: Open the last saved images in Photoshop. The ‘raw rendered
image or the main scene’ will serve as the background layer. Place the ‘alpha
channel image’ in layer 1.
|
Forest Scene
|
Note:
Technically, any scenery photo you find in the internet can be used as a
background element. However, you need to choose photos that match the lighting
conditions and proportionality of your rendered 3D scene.
STEP 5: Insert grass
landscape in Layer 3. Roughly, erase the upper portion of the image using the
eraser tool.
|
Grass landscape
|
STEP 8: Select each
layer that is set in multiply mode, roughly erase the portion you don’t want to
be affected by the masking effect or shadows. Result so far.
|
STEP 9: Add vines or
creeping plant image in the scene> set the blend mode to ‘Lighter color’
|
STEP 10: Save your
work in JPEG or PNG format. Result so far
|
STEP 11: In order to
blend all the entourage to the main scene (raw render image), adjust the ‘color
balance’ and ‘saturation’ settings. Open the last saved image and follow the
settings.
|
STEP 12: When done,
save your work in JPEG or PNG format. Result so far
|
STEP 13: Open your
last saved image in Picasa. Follow the workflow for Picasa: (1) Orton mode>
(2) Glow effect> (3) Color temperature> (4) Click ‘Save as’ and save your
work in JPEG or PNG format.

ReplyDeleteThere are certainly a lot of details like that to take into consideration. That is a great point to bring up. I offer the thoughts above as general inspiration but clearly there are questions like the one you bring up where the most important thing will be working in honest good faith. I don?t know if best practices have emerged around things like that, but I am sure that your job is clearly identified as a fair game. Both boys and girls feel the impact of just a moment?s pleasure, for the rest of their lives.
