Hi Patrons,

This is the scenefile for lesson 04. Be sure that I can´t provide the materials, HDRI and IES-light files. But in the tutorial I will explain exactly where you can find them.

See you soon, Best

Hi Patrons, I´m back!

Hi Patrons,

first let me say: Thanks for your patience and support. It just happened that a dream project came in last week and I had to deliver for a couple of days. I was able to develope some cool techniques and maybe I will be able to share some of it.

But for today, I just want to say: I will continue the work on the "Master Lighting in 3D" Training now.

We are going to build an awesome looking desert landscape and place some highlight objects ...

Only 3 Days left...

Hi my dear Patrons,

I swear it will be the last post about these amazing 25% Discount, but it´s only 3 Days left to get it. Just think about it: If you want to go Pro this year in Cinema4D and Octane, it´s a strong investment into your career;-).

You simply can´t have to many Assets!

Hi my dear Patrons, 

I thought: Markus, don´t be ungenerous! Give them more! More of your Heart and your Soul! And more Assets to play with! Thats why I designed a couple more playful objects you can place in your scenes to enrich them and put a little spice into your renders.

Look, what a beautiful render I was able to put out just with these elements. 

Now I will finally go over to record lesson 04 of "Master Lighting in 3D".

Best, Markus<...

Even more Assets!

I build a simple round shelf. It comes in 3 variations. Perfect as a tasteful asset in your interiours, plus: It´s easily adjustable/changeable for the perfect fit into your scene.

We will use these assets in the next "Mastering Lighting in 3D" lesson. But of course, you can use your own assets as well.

Assets for Master Lighting in 3D Course

Hi Patrons,

Let me supply you with different Assets for the "Master Lighting in 3D" Course. Starting with this cool abstract  Element. I like to put it on walls and into shelves as a decorative element. Of course you can also use it as an abstract main object and eyecatcher, like I did it with this rendering here.

Light your Renderings like old Master´s Paintings

Hi Patrons,

Since I´m doing a brandnew Patreon exclusive Lighting Course, which has just started here on patreon, I´ll give away this old patreon exclusive lesson now also on YouTube. For some of you who are new members and haven´t dig down so deep into my patreon´s hierarchy, this could also be an interesting course. It´s old but still relevant!

And here is a short summary what you will learn in this "Light your Renderings like old Master´s Paintings" video...

Master Lighting in 3D Lesson 01

Hi Patrons,

So I´m working on this "Interior Lighting Course", but I just changed the leading theme to "Mastering Lighting in 3D". It just feels more suitable since these Techniques apply not only to interior renderings. Let´s not restrict ourselves too much and broaden the focus to a more complete picture.

Light is by far the most important factor in your renderings that separate the master from the beginner. You just can´t overemphasize the i...
