CONTENTS


Chapter 1 - Sunny afternoon
In this chapter we take a look at how to set up "sunny afternoon” lighting for our 3D environment, using mental ray to render.

Chapter 2 - Twilight
In this chapter we set up our lighting scene to make it resemble a moody sunset, again using mental ray to render.

Chapter 3 - Moonlight
This time we create a typical moonlight setup for the ship cabin scene, using the mental ray renderer.

Chapter 4 - Electrical
In this chapter we learn how to create an artificial lighting situation for our ship cabin scene, using 3ds Max and mental ray.

Chapter 5 - Candlelight
This time we learn how to light the ship's cabin with some candles. Only one candle will be visible on the left; the other two will just light the scene and cast shadows, but will be out of view (one on the right and one in the back of the room).

Chapter 6 - Underwater
In this last chapter we set up a nice underwater scene for the ship cabin. Just imagine it has sunk and is now lying on the ocean bed!
