    V-Ray Luminaires: dramatically faster, more accurate rendering of complex light fixtures
    Most of the light fixtures in Chaos Cosmos come with luminaire files so using them is simply a matter of drag and drop. If a light fixture doesnt have a luminaire file, it either has no light sources, or adding a luminaire does not improve the results (for example if the light sources directly illuminate the scene and there is no complex light transport). A tutorialon creating luminaire files for customlight fixtures is coming soon.Working with VRayLuminaire light sourcesIf a light fixture has a VRayLuminaire object attached to it, then control of the light emitted from the fixture, like intensity and temperature, should be handled from the VRayLuminaire object. However at this time, disabling a VRayLuminaire light simply disables the light field calculation and not the regular light sources that are a part of the light fixture. An easy way to disable all of the light emitted from the fixture is to set the intensity of the VRayLuminaire light to 0.0.Similarly, in the VRayLightMix system, the original lights in the fixture and the VRayLuminaire light will appear separately; this is something that will be improved in subsequent V-Ray 7 releases.

    3D Gaussian Splatting: A new frontier in rendering
    What is 3D Gaussian Splatting?At its core, 3D Gaussian Splatting is a technique for creating and rendering 3D scenes using millions of tiny, translucent ellipsoids known as "Gaussian splats." Unlike traditional methods that rely on polygons or complex neural networks, 3DGS uses these splats to represent a scene. Each splat carries information about its position, color, size, and transparency. When viewed together, they blend seamlessly to replicate the original subject with striking fidelity.How does 3DGS work?3D Gaussian Splatting creates an accurate representation of scenes captured from multiple photos taken at various angles, a method widely used in computer graphics. Through a training process involving optimization algorithms and differentiable rasterization, these images are transformed into detailed 3D models ready for rendering.The process step by stepThe process begins much like photogrammetryyou capture a subject from multiple angles using photos or video frames. These images are then analyzed to determine camera positions and create a preliminary 3D point cloud of the scene, a method known as Structure from Motion (SfM).Each point in this cloud is converted into a Gaussian splat, which isn't just a point but an ellipsoid with specific properties:Position: Determines where the splat is located in 3D space.Shape and Size: Dictates how the splat stretches or scales, allowing it to represent fine details.Color: Stores the splat's color information. The colors are view-dependent and may change depending on the direction that the splat is viewed from.Transparency: Defines how transparent the splat is, crucial for blending multiple splats together.These splats then undergo an optimization process to refine their parameters. This involves:Differentiable Rasterization: Projecting the 3D Gaussian splats onto a 2D image plane to simulate how a camera would see them.Loss Function: Measuring the difference between the rendered image of splats and the original input images.Optimization Algorithms: Adjusting the splats to minimize this difference.Adaptive Density Control: Removing unnecessary splats or adding more where needed for detail.The result is a 3D representation that closely matches the original subject, ready for rendering.Why is 3D Gaussian Splatting a game-changer?What makes 3DGS revolutionary is its unique combination of realism, efficiency and speed, positioning it as an exciting advancement in computer graphics.Realism3DGS excels at capturing fine details and complex lighting effects like reflections and refractions. This leads to highly photorealistic results that were previously hard to achieve in real-time rendering.EfficiencyThe Gaussian splat representation is more compact than dense polygon meshes or data-heavy neural networks. This means less storage and computational power are needed.SpeedBecause of its efficient data representation and optimized rendering pipeline, 3DGS can achieve real-time or near real-time rendering speeds, making it suitable for interactive applications.ScalabilityIt's capable of handling complex scenes with millions of splats, efficiently representing large-scale environments without a significant performance hit.Rendering 3D Gaussian splats3DGS can achieve very fast rendering speeds, but this comes at the expense of limitations in realism and flexibility. Integrating Gaussian splats into V-Ray's ray tracing engine overcomes these challenges, allowing for accurate representations of the captured scenes and creative control.3D Gaussian Splatting, rasterization, and ray tracingWhile the Gaussian Splats are relying on the process of rasterization to make them render really fast, this comes at the expense of many limitations.Fortunately, one of the exciting developments in 3D Gaussian Splatting is its integration inside of V-Ray, which breaks through these barriers with its powerful ray tracing capabilities.

    How Corona and Vantage interoperability empowered narrativ to create show-stopping animations
    Summary:narrativ is a UK-based studio specializing in using CGI to craft visuals, animations, marketing films, and more.The studio, a long-time user of Corona, recently tested its interoperability with Vantage.Through experimentation, Director Robin Walker and the narrativ team leveraged real-time ray tracing to iterate rapidly, enabling a more creative and artistic workflow.narrativ produced three animations, showcasing architecture, product, and VFX.London-based visualization studio narrativ has specialized in digital communication since 2019. The studio brings to life the visions of architects, designers, brands, and artists through static images, animations, virtual tours, and marketing films. Whether crafting tour visuals for musician Gryffin or showcasing monumental projects like the Olympia Exhibition Centre, narrativ thrives on tackling exciting, boundary-pushing projects. Since its founding, the studio has consistently relied on Corona as its renderer of choice.After learning about the upcoming release of Corona 12, narrativ was intrigued by the new interoperability with real-time visualizer Vantage. This feature allows Corona users to import scenes into Chaos Vantage and render test images in seconds. It also allows for exploring scenes and creating animations, utilizing Vantage's ultra-fast GPU real-time rendering. Recognizing the potential to elevate their work, Director Robin Walker and the narrativ team were excited to take on an ambitious project commissioned by Chaos that would thoroughly test this new feature's capabilities.Setting the stage for a triple animation challengeAfter their initial excitement about testing the interoperability, the narrativ team took time to plan their test carefully. They didn't hold back, proposing creating three distinct, one-minute animations focused on architecture, product, and VFX. Robin explained, "Each [theme] was designed to push Vantage in its very own way while also showing its versatility."The studio got to work using their tried-and-true workflow, creating scenes in 3ds Max before rendering them with Corona making the most of Interactive Rendering as they went ("we couldn't live without it"). By the time they were ready to experiment, narrativ had crafted three meticulously designed scenes to explore from every angle using Vantage.

    How anima ALL integrated with narrativs workflow to help produce stunning storytelling
    Learn how anima ALL integrated seamlessly into studio narrativ's workflow to save time creating crowds in the marketing film for London events venue, OlympiaSummary:UK-based architecture visualization studio narrativ works on ambitious, landmark projects like the upcoming transformation of Olympia in London, UK.narrativ needed to realistically showcase Olympia as the premiere art, culture, and entertainment destination for the next generationnarrativ used anima ALL to let the viewer experience myriad opportunities Olympia will soon offer in an immersive and engaging way.Anima ALL's crowd capabilities perfectly fit narrativ's workflow, helping it achieve its goal and win customer satisfaction.CGI studio narrativ has collaborated with world-renowned architects, designs, and brands since 2019 to create beautiful animations, virtual tours, and static visualizations. narrativ prides itself on exploring out-of-the-box solutions, breaking industry norms, and always searching for new ways to create visualizations. One of narrativs most ambitious projectsand a testament to its commitment to excellenceis its work bringing Olympia Events to life.narrativOlympia opened in 1886 and has housed exhibitions, concerts, conferences, and sporting events ever since. With new plans to upgrade and renovate the complex, Director Robin Walker and the narrativ team were entrusted with producing a film to showcase the project. Using anima ALL and Corona, narrativ delivered animations that were key to the projects success, attracting potential investors and key tenants.Problem: Highlighting how the public will enjoy the new upgrades on a tight deadlineLocated in West Kensington, Olympia has been a mainstay for London events and conferences for almost 140 years. Now, Olympia is ready for an upgrade that would make it a cultural destination fit for 21st-century London. Amongst other things, the renovations will include flexible office space, a music venue, a theater, two hotels, and 2.5 acres of public space.narrativWith the renovation still in the planning stages, the Olympia team tasked narrativ with creating a film to help lock in investor support and attract potential tenants. The brief was straightforward, explains Robin. Showcase Olympia in its best light and take viewers on a journey through it, but without relying on the old-school fly-throughs that often lack a human touch and a true sense of presence.In addition, not only was there a tight timeline for this project of just two months, but narrativs film also needed to demonstrate how the complex would function from morning to nightand shine a light on its accessibility from central London.narrativIt was a big challenge, so narrativ teamed up with Chaos to realize their vision of telling an engaging visual story. In addition to taking advantage of Coronas rendering excellence, they realized that the crowd capabilities of anima ALL would be the perfect tool to add that all-important human element. It would also perfectly integrate into their existing workflow for maximum time efficiency.Solution: Using products that integrate for a seamless workflowAnima ALLs seamless integration with 3ds Max and Corona played a key role in ensuring that the team could work efficiently while maintaining creative control. Using anima alongside these tools, narrativ efficiently populated scenes with people and crowds, maintaining a smooth and creative workflow without interruptions or bottlenecks.Drop is actually our go-to to begin with. [It] allows us to intuitively add 3D people to our scene exactly where we want them.Robin Walker, narrativWhile other studios may prefer to add their people models at the end of the project, narrativ includes them from the start of the process. Although this might seem time-consuming, animas Drop feature made it easy for the team to add people models directly within 3ds Max. This early integration of 3D people ensured that the human element was an integral part of the project from the beginning. Drop is actually our go-to to begin with, said Robin. [It] allows us to intuitively add 3D people to our scene exactly where we want them.narrativWhen it came time to add crowds and 4D people models, narrativ took geometry they needed crowds for and imported them into the anima app. From there, they created the socialization areas the 3D rigged models will interact in and bring to life the various environments across Olympia, from cafes to walkways, escalators, and theaters. For models featured closer to the camera, narrativ used anima's hallmark models, 4D walking humans, to bring the complex to life. "As long as you have nice 4D models as the first thing your eye catches, the rest just works," says Robin.We're actually quite quickadding crowds can take an hour or two! More complex scenarios with paths, escalators, etc., take a bit longer but no more than a day. Anima is super fast.Robin Walker, narrativThis fluid workflow not only enabled narrativ to add a human touch to Olympia but also significantly reduced production time. These films would have taken ten times longer to finish without anima. With traditional methods, wed have to download individual models one by one, import them into 3ds Max, relink the mapsit would have been a nightmare.Instead of spending days and days populating scenes, narrativ have got it down to a fine (and fast) art. "We're actually quite quickadding crowds can take an hour or two! More complex scenarios with paths, escalators, etc., take a bit longer but no more than a day. Anima is super fast."narrativResult: Winning investor confidence with storytellingAfter receiving the films final cut, narrativs client was thrilled with the results. The animation takes viewers on an immersive journey, starting in London and moving through the vibrant spaces of Olympiabustling outdoor areas, hotels, cafes, and office spaces. The journey culminates in a conference, a meal, walking the red carpet, and ending the evening at a concert. By showcasing Olympias dynamic spaces from morning to night, the film allowed potential investors and tenants to experience firsthand the vibrant atmosphere the renovation would bring. This powerful storytelling played a key role in securing the necessary funding and attracting tenants, ensuring the projects success.Anima ALLs crowd capabilities made it easy for viewers to blend into the scenes, allowing narrativs client to show rather than tell. The added human touch helped immerse potential investors in Olympias future, providing a glimpse into how their funding would shape the development or, for future tenants, the type of vibrant community their businesses would become a part of.Anima ALL has consistently proven to be intuitive and easy to use, allowing us to get up and running quickly without any hassle. The seamless integration into our workflow means we can focus on the creative side of things rather than dealing with a complicated piece of software.Robin Walker, narrativFor narrativ, the Olympia project marks the latest success using the tool.

    Anima ALLs crowd capabilities help narrativ fill Gunwharf Quays with life
    Learn how narrativ used anima ALL to quickly breathe life into Portsmouth's Gunwharf Quays visualization with 3D people and 4D humans.Summary:narrativ, a UK-based CGI studio, specializes in large-scale projects like Landsecs designer outlet at Gunwharf Quays, Portsmouth.To showcase the planned overhaul and future visitor experience, they created a film using anima ALLs crowd animation capabilities.anima ALL enabled narrativ to quickly populate their scenes with dynamic crowds, enhancing viewer immersion.By blending CGI with stock footage, narrativ brought the architectural vision to life, creating a powerful film imagining the venue five years into the future.London-based CGI studio narrativ creates visualizations, animations, virtual tours, and marketing films to present architectural visions in a relatable and immersive way. As a high-end studio, they provide clever CGI solutions for complex architectural projects like Landsecs upcoming plans for the designer outlet at Gunwharf Quays in Portsmouth, U.KThis complex is situated on the waterfront, and a planned 45m overhaul will see it further enhance its offerings to visitors, with a premium retail and leisure experience, and hospitality hotspots. To properly convey the scale of this project, Director Robin Walker and the narrativ team created a film using anima ALL, Corona, and 3ds Max that would give viewers a look at the upgraded space, imagining it five years in the future.Problem: How to showcase scale and breathe life into architectural visionsLandsec's renovation plans for Gunwharf Quays are vast and include removing vacant retail space, creating a city square, and establishing a hospitality destination. To convey this, they needed to visualize a space that would look epic and bursting with energy, explained Director Robin Walker. Having seen narrativs work on the Olympia film, Landsec knew exactly what the studio could do. "Landsec trusted our artistic eye," said Robin. "The most important guideline was simply to do what we're best at."narrativFor narrativ's artists, showing the changes in the buildings and space was something they could easily achieve using 3ds Max and Corona. The most important aspect of this project was producing a film that made audiences feel like they were there. Landsec wanted to use the film to market to existing and potential retailers and to build visitor anticipation.To achieve their artistic goals, narrativ aimed to visualize Gunwharf Quays as it would bea vibrant complex with crowds of people using the space for shopping, relaxing, and eating. They planned to include some live-action stock footage to help set the scene, but to show off the upgrades in a believable way, they needed an effective crowd visualization solution with access to 3D people models that looked and moved realistically. Additionally, all 3D people assets had to be render-ready and of consistent quality to work well together.narrativ turned to anima ALL as a complete crowd visualization solution to streamline this process. This gave them access to a vast collection of models and tools to control animations efficiently.Solution: Use anima ALL to create immersive and dynamic crowd scenesBecause narrativs projects are often focussed around public gathering spaces, the studio likes to include people models from the start of the animation process. The films were really all about peoplewithout them, it would have felt like a strange ghost town, says Robin. Using anima Dropthe studios favorite featureadding people models can be done within 3ds Max, seamlessly fitting into the studios workflow. We can simply drag and drop 3D people into our Max scene, including 4D people, explains Robin. Then continue to move, rotate, scale, and work in an organic and artistic way.When adding any crowd, large or small, narrativ start by importing the background objects that will serve as areas to avoid into the anima app; in the app they create the socialization areas where the 3D rigged models will walk and socialize, such as paths, stairs, ramps or escalators. "You draw an area or path and generate loads of 3D people with a button; then, if you want to reduce, change the people, or add more, you can simply regenerate or even swap in and out manually."narrativ4D people always look amazing, and we're not afraid to feature them prominently.Robin Walker, narrativ For the models appearing closer to the camera, narrativ gravitated towards anima's hallmark models, 4D walking humans, to show off the upgraded complex. These models were a big part of the overall film, influencing the composition of shots and helping to guide the viewer's eye throughout. Although narrativ's film would feature the 4D models close up, it had no qualms about them being a viewer distraction. "4D people always look amazing, and we're not afraid to feature them prominently."Better yet, narrativ was even able to find 4D models that matched people featured in the stock footage portions of the film. It really helps that anima has such a comprehensive library of people, says Robin. We can always find the right models to match the stock footage, which is incredibly important for maintaining consistency.narrativWhile anima can handle a lot of the heavy lifting with its automated features, it also allows you to fine-tune the results when needed, and that's really important.Robin Walker, narrativThroughout the crowd creation process, the narrativ team let anima automatically generate the models' positions and the clothing color. Then, when it came to the 4D walking models, the team could make small changes to move their positions or alter the movement sequences to allow them to get the shots they needed. This flexibility to automate, while also being able to make manual changes is something the narrativ team values in their work. "While anima can handle a lot of the heavy lifting with its automated features, it also allows you to fine-tune the results when needed, and that's really important."Once the crowd was in place, the final touches on the Gunwharf Quays film were completed. Despite the extensive use of anima models, the project rendered smoothly. Having hundreds of anima people doesnt seem to affect render time, said Robin.narrativResult: An animation that thrills clients and shows narrativs competitive edgeThe Gunwharf Quays animation was a clear success for narrativ, delivering exciting and vivid storytelling faster than its client expected. With anima ALL, the video went beyond showcasing physical upgrades, allowing viewers to grasp the project's scale and envision how visitors will experience the complex.Presenting the new and overhauled Gunwharf Quays in an animated video allowed Landsec to market what existing and potential retailers, the local community, and visitors can look forward to.You don't have to worry about purchasing the correct model. You will always be able to find the one that's right for the job.Robin Walker, narrativUsing anima ALL to add crowds and models to their animation was a boon for narrativ. Not only was it highly time-efficient due to anima's automation features, but it was also cost-effective due to being an all-in-one solution. The full access to the vast anima ALL people library is yet another reason for narrativ to choose it as the only crowd solution for their visualization projects. The library contains over 3000 people assets in five main categories. "You don't have to worry about purchasing the correct model," explains Robin." You will always be able to find the one that's right for the job." This and anima's automation tools have allowed narrativ to deliver projects quickly, helping the studio maintain its edge over competitors.narrativnarrativ's expert use of anima ALL's capabilities showcases its value as a comprehensive solution for adding crowds to visualizations. With its intuitive tools and automation features, the studio plans to continue using it to enhance efficiency and storytelling in future projects.Populate your scenes.Add anima ALL to your pipelines.Learn more
