Rendering 101 - Theory: Raytracing, Pathtracing & Monte Carlo
Added 2019-11-21 09:02:59 +0000 UTCBefore we dive head first into our first renderings, I think it's cool to get an idea of how a computer actually calculates how light propagates through a scene and how it computes an image.
This video goes over the theoretical background of what a raytracer and a pathtracer do in order to generate images. We'll be talking camera rays, bounces and monte carlo methods.
