This blog contains the digital workbooks of the students who take ARIL-360 / ARIL-421 at Montclair State University.
Remember the disco version of the Cornell box I showed in class?
I increased the amount of photons considerably and pushed up the accuracy to get this much smoother result:
Both images are rendered using Global Illumination only, with caustics. The smoother one rendered in 28 seconds on my laptop, not bad eh?
This blog contains the digital workbooks of students at Montclair State University. In fall, it was dedicated to "ARIL-360: Motion, Light, Texture, Mapping", and in spring to "ARIL-421: Advanced Animation and Illustartion Arts".
I have since moved on to Monmouth University, where my students post to this blog

28 seconds! For global illumination? That's great!
How feasible would it be to use GI for my animation? I'm worried about rendering time, especially if I'm going to put fur on Sleasel.
Harry's been working with fur during lab hours and seems to be having trouble with the render times - I think he's actually sworn off of it for good...
28 seconds for a scene with hardly any geometry and a single light. And not rendered in the lab ;P
More on GI and animation in the next class, but I can tell you they are not great friends. Combining Fur and GI may make matters worse, would need to test that....
