Reflections and Light: Tutorial Set

Presenting the Reflections and Light: Tutorial Set for 3d artists!

Mirrors and reflections provide a fascinating aspect to artwork, both in the use of character-based scenes and landscapes. There are a number of shaders, scripts, and props that work really well when working with reflections in a scene. In this community-based tutorial, we share tips, recommended resources, and artwork that use reflections as a primary element.

This community session includes ten artists using DAZ Studio, Poser, Carrara, Mojoworld, and VUE.

Bonus Tutorial: Light Effects, Properties, and Types

Have you ever been confused about the different lighting terms used in computer graphics? Ever wondered a little more about the science of light?

Terms such as volumetric light, diffraction, and subsurface scattering are explained here, and this tutorial will help those who have struggled with these lighting terms and more. We'll also go into some of the science of light to give a fuller background on the subject and talk about the most common light types we see used in 3D graphics applications such as DAZ Studio.
