Discolouration of interior scene

[louiseleung]

Hi,

 

I would like to know how to adjust the Vray setting to archieve better result. Not sure why, the render looks way to bright and discoloured.

 

Pls Help!

Simple answer - too much light giving a lack of contrast. Try turning down the left light, and turn all the other off, and see how that looks.

Check out some tutorials, trial and error. It's really the only way to learn.

One more thing, if you have yet to get it right - check the linear workflow in render settings.

Hi Guys,

I have same problem. Any ideas? I tried lo lower light , change camera settings (exposure) but render is still bad. Thanks for reply and ideas.

The problem is that everything about this image says "beginner". The danger with a program like vray that gives you photo realistic results

out of the box is that it creates the illusion (delusion) that you did that - that you created those realistic materials and light effects and "real" look.

 

This is a great disservice to beginners because it makes them think that they are just a few tweaks and adjustments in settings away to getting a good rendering whereas they are years of hard work (in areas such as composition, lighting, color balance, art/photography history, landscaping, etc,) and dues being paid from achieving a good looking image.

Problem is that you probably forgot you were also beginner with no experiences. Or you fell from heaven perfectly skilled in visualisations?? Im not paid for this and all i want is short advice from someone skilled...

What George said is the truth. And the "short advice" you are looking for has allready been posted by Dean. Adjust the settings until it looks good and works the way you want. For the most part you can just choose some of the default render settings (quick render setup in vray) and they should work great, no need for a lot of tweaking with those settings. What the settings of materials, lights and camera are supposed to be may vary from project to project, shot to shot, but experience will give you something that works good as a starting point, and then you can adjust it further from there. Experience is a must to get a decent startingpoint, and experimentation is key to achieving that experience. There is no hidden "auto-awesome" checkbox in the render settings. Read the vray manual, and read some making of`s or tutorials. Observe what is "wrong" with your image, and try to fix it as best you can.
