Light in Black Interior

[VMG]

Hi all. I'm new to vray and I'm in serious trouble illuminate the scene show the images.

It is an auditorium with black plywood without natural light.

In the first image, it's all white 230, but when I switch to black 30 is all dark. Someone can help me? Thank you.

Think about this in terms of the real world. You need to boost your light intensity and/or your camera exposure to get the same illumination values between your two images.

 

In short. The whiter the material, the more GI and light energy it will bounce around. The darker the material, the more light it absorbs.

there should be a lot of specular highlights from your light sources - in a space like this there is normally a lot of small lightsources on the ceiling, on the floor, between the seats, rig lighting, stage lighting, strip lighting

 

the materials are you main issue - at the moment you have none - thus the darkness!

its a nice model and should look good with some work - there are a lot of good rendered examples around like this.

As scott said you really have to think about it like in the real world. You wouldn't walk into a cave with a camera and try to use the same settings as when you were outside; you'd adjust the camera exposure to compensate for it being dark.

Thanks for all replys. I will try to make some adjustments.
