The second project involves the production of photorealistic still rendering of the selected architecture design with materials, appropriate camera views and post-production enhancement on the visual outcome. The visualisation work would be assessed on the types and ways materials are used, types of lights and effects used to set up the scene, setup of appropriate camera views for rendering and skills of using post-production tools to enhance the visual outcome.

Objectives of Project

The objectives of this project are as follows:

• -  Able to import .dwg file into 3DS Max.

• -  To manage the 3D scene using layers.

• -  To create materials for 3D objects.

• -  To use lights in 3DS Max for exterior and interior rendering.

• -  To set up good photographic compositions using cameras in 3DS Max for final rendering.

• -  To understand and execute the appropriate rendering settings.

• -  To enhance the visual outcome of the renderings using post-production tools.

  Learning Outcomes of this Project

• -  Produce photorealistic still renderings of the selected building with materials, lighting, camera views and site context.

• -  To record Work in Progress (WIP) as progressive evidence of the working process.
