  • Most problems people run into with V-Ray for SketchUp come from getting too far into the rendering process too fast. In this video, we'll teach you "The Photographer Method", a 3-step approach that we teach our students in our V-Ray for SketchUp course that helps them understand how to think like a photographer in order to avoid early mistakes and create better renderings. Here's what we'll cover:
    Introduction (00:00)
    The 3 Steps of The Photographer Method
    1⃣ Compose Your Shot (1:01)
    2⃣ Light Your Scene (04:13)
    3⃣ Enhance Your Final Image (11:34)
    And we created some notes, to help you remember everything: sketchup.school/jyc

      While you can certainly try to get as far as you can with your assignment, it will take longer than 5 days to really learn V-Ray for SketchUp well. Best of luck, and maybe after your assignment is done you can invest some time into learning V-Ray so that you're ready before your next one.

    please tell me, is it possible setting a parameter or creating constraint to any object without any plugin in SketchUp, if it is not possible then why they don't include this operation , I also want to use fillet tool as default

    • @SketchUpSchool
      @SketchUpSchool  2 роки тому +1

      Hi Zabir 👋 If I understand your question correctly, you can create constraints in SketchUp by creating Dynamic Components. Or, if you know the Ruby programming language, then you can create a script or extension to help with that.
      As for using a fillet tool: There isn't a fillet tool included in SketchUp's toolset, but you can download and install the FredoCorner extension to add tools to help with that: sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=FredoCorner

  • @Simon-Simon-Simon
    @Simon-Simon-Simon 2 роки тому +1

    one question to anyone
    why in VRAY when shift the model orientation the glazing shifts from see through to almost mirror on certain angles
    this split in the glass between the 2 is annoying

    • @SketchUpSchool
      @SketchUpSchool  2 роки тому +1

      If I understand the question correctly, it sounds like this is what you would also encounter in the real-world: At more dead-on angles you would be able to more clearly see through a window into the inside, but at wider angles you would see more of the reflected light/environment outside the window.
      If I've missed the issue, please email team@sketchupschool.com and we'd be happy to try to help further.

    • @SketchUpSchool
      @SketchUpSchool  Рік тому

      A Key light is just another way of saying "the main light" or "the primary light". So in V-Ray, there are different light types and you can use whichever one makes sense as a key or primary light.

  • @liamdmcl
    @liamdmcl 2 роки тому +2

    Let's say I just want to show the light fixtures in the scene, but I don't care if they're adding light because I have my 2-point lighting setup. Would it be easiest and better for render times if I just made them emissive materials instead of adding Vray lights to them?

    • @SketchUpSchool
      @SketchUpSchool  2 роки тому +2

      Yes, that would be a better strategy for lowering rendering times while getting the look you want.

    ,,Helps students go from not being sure where to begin to being able to produce awesome renderings in just a few days.''
    Well, I went on a course, got certified for 3ds max and v-ray, worked really hard and what I got ? Fuzzy, saturated, blurred renderings, doesn't matter what i did. Not even close to photorealism, but game/children play. Even with adding Photoshop, still far from it.
    Wasted whole my paycheck for the unnecessarily complicated software for architects.
    No steps helped me doing anything further for so many years.
    So, I don't see how these ,,renderings'' in the video are possible, unless I learn exact way on how to do it properly, and with help from someone who really knows how to do and to explain, not from ,,,youtube/live performers''.
    P.S. (I am pretty fast in Sketchup, at least double more times than 3ds Max.)

    • @SketchUpSchool
      @SketchUpSchool  2 роки тому +3

      Sorry to hear that you've had a bad experience trying to create photorealistic renderings in the past. The truth is that most courses make it too complicated - the steps to creating photorealistic renderings are actually fairly straightforward. The challenge is not just knowing those steps, but knowing how to make corrections as you go. No one creates a perfect rendering with the first click of the render button. It's about taking a simple approach to testing and iterating your way from a not-so-good rendering to a photorealistic one.
      For background, I (Alex) am not here on UA-cam to perform or try to become popular or anything like that. I have been teaching real professionals in the real world how to produce the renderings they need since 2005. And I have been trying to condense our proven training approach into videos that more people can find on UA-cam so that I can help more people realize what's possible. I welcome you to contact us (and me) by sending a message to team@sketchupschool.com with any follow-up questions you might have. Even if you never take one of our video courses on our website, we would still be happy to try to help you overcome the issues that you have run into in the past.
