Rendering and Presentation

High-quality rendered images are the main ingredient of a good 3D modeling project presentation, and to produce good quality renders, there are a number of conditions and settings that need to be adjusted properly. It is like setting the scene before taking the picture. In this chapter, the following scene-setting aspects will be covered, each in a dedicated section:

  • Adjusting lighting conditions
  • Displaying shadows
  • Applying materials to the components of the 3D model
  • Creating cameras

After the scene is set, we will cover the details of creating a rendered image, and after that, we will take a quick look at exchanging other file formats for 3D models.
