3ds Max + Corona renderer - How to create interior visualizations

Discover the secrets of photorealistic visualization in 3ds Max

Immerse yourself in the world of professional architectural visualization, learning to create realistic interiors from scratch. I will guide you step by step through the process of modeling, texturing, and rendering, using the latest techniques and tools available in 3ds Max. You will learn how to transform simple models into impressive scenes that are hard to distinguish from real photographs.

You will also learn how to optimize your work to achieve professional results in less time. Whether you are just starting your adventure with 3D or want to take your skills to the next level, this course will provide you with the necessary knowledge and inspiration.

Raise the quality of your visualizations

Want to improve the quality of your visualizations but don't know how? In this course, I will show you what factors influence whether your visualizations look average or professional. It consists of many small things that we need to remember to achieve a satisfactory effect.

Work on three completely different interior projects

During the course, we will work on three unique projects: a minimalist bathroom, a modern interior, and a rustic home. Each of them has been carefully prepared to show the diversity of styles and techniques in architectural visualization. Through practical work on these projects, you will gain experience in different types of spaces and furnishings. You will learn to adapt techniques to the specific nature of each project, allowing you to experiment and develop your own ideas. These three spaces are just the beginning – the skills you acquire will open up endless possibilities for creating!

Master light and shadow with Corona Renderer

Light plays a crucial role in creating realistic visualizations, so we pay special attention to it. You will learn about the different types of lighting available in the Corona Renderer, including natural sunlight, artificial light sources, and IES profiles. You will learn to create atmospheric scenes at different times of day and in different weather conditions by manipulating the intensity and color of light. With the LightMix tool, you will have the ability to dynamically control lighting in real time, allowing you to experiment without the need for re-rendering the scene. You will understand how light and shadow affect the atmosphere of the interior and how to use them to emphasize key elements of the project.

Creating multiple lighting variations based on one visualization will be effortless for you and will save you a lot of time.

Corona - Materials and textures demystified

Realistic materials and textures are essential for creating convincing visualizations. In this course, you will learn how to create your own materials and effectively use ready-made textures. You will learn advanced mapping techniques, such as Corona Triplanar, Mapping Randomizer, or MultiMap, which will allow you to avoid repetition and add naturalness to surfaces.

You will also master special effects such as Displacement, NormalMap, or Refraction, which will add depth and realism to your scenes. With these skills, your visualizations will be full of details and will surprise even the most demanding viewers.

Finalize your projects like a professional

The final stage of visualization creation is as important as the modeling or lighting process. In this course, you will learn how to prepare scenes for final rendering to achieve the highest image quality. You will learn about post-production tools available directly in Corona's Virtual Frame Buffer (VFB) and in the Affinity program, which will allow you to improve colors, contrast, and other image parameters. You will learn to use the Denoiser and other optimization techniques to shorten the rendering time without sacrificing quality. With these skills, your projects will present professionally and will impress every client!

Utilize AI in post-production

Modern technologies, such as artificial intelligence, open up entirely new possibilities in the field of visualization. In this course, I will show you how to use AI tools to enhance and modify your visualizations. You will also learn how to use artificial intelligence to create animations based on static images, allowing you to add dynamism and attractiveness to your projects. You will see how AI can speed up your work by automating certain processes and giving you more time for creativity. This is the future of visualization, and you can be part of it today!
