Chapter 10. Adding Photographic Touches in Post-production

In many ways, we come now to possibly the most important chapter of all in our quest to learn how we go about producing photographic renders in SketchUp and V-Ray, and ironically, we won't be using either of those applications. What we want to do now is to add some of the finishing touches to the good work that we have done up to this point in our 3D applications that will enhance or add to the photographic feel of our finished image.

Now, of course, a number of the steps that we will perform here could quite easily have been taken inside V-Ray itself, but for the sake of both speed and artistic flexibility, which of course are absolutely essential when working on commercial projects, we will handle them here instead.
