10 Tips To Make Your Renders Look Better with any render engine

hello everybody thank you for watching HMS studio in this video I'm gonna give you ten tips that make your renders look better I save the best one for the last so make sure to watch the whole video before we start please take a moment and subscribe to the channel so you don't miss any of my future tutorials ok let's start what is our goal in the arcus industry we're trying to recreate the reality so our best reference will be the reality itself then before starting any of your project you need to gather some reference images so you could create the details as they are in the real world are you working on an exterior project just take your camera or mobile phone and take a walk for 20 minutes and you can take hundreds of photos or if you're working on an interior scene you can just look around you right now at your office or your home wherever you are just take some photos of every detail that you can find also from different angles to find out how materials are reacting to the light by the way we're not talking about any specific software or render engine you can apply these on any application that you're familiar with and they will work just fine [Music] this seems to be very easy but it's very important and effective there's no such a thing as a razor-sharp edge in the nature well except the razor itself but you need to always chamfer all the edges because it will increase the realism and also you will get a very nice specular at the edges which is great always try to use high quality textures it doesn't matter if you do the perfect lighting without high quality textures you cannot get realistic results thankfully there are a lot of websites like polygon Arroway and ever motion that you can download any kind of premium textures that you need and they usually are coming with all the necessary Maps like special air pump and normal so they're easy to use and you can get some realistic results out of them do you want to mess up your renders well use repetitive textures but jokes aside always use seamless textures if your texture is not seamless you can fix it in Photoshop fix plant or any other photo editing software that you're familiar with I'll make a video about that one in the near future you need to adjust your UVW map based on real-world scale the human eye can easily point out if you're using very small or large textures and even objects as well you can easily run a search on google or as I said look at your reference photos to find out about the real world scale of any texture or object nothing is perfect in this world fingerprints on a glass cracks in the ceiling a crooked picture frame on the wall and this kind of stuff our brain has been trained for so many years and expects all of these imperfections so when you're trying to avoid that and make everything super sharp and clean or when you're perfectly arranging all the seats around the dining table with equal space and rotation you cannot get realistic results no surface has a uniform glossiness all around it even a clean glass has some fingerprints or dust on it and the specular map will help you to create that kind of effect this is a major rule in the process of making a realistic render let's say that you're applying a material with a single fixture to a set of wooden floor planks an obvious pattern may appear which makes the rendering unrealistic the UVW randomizer map allows you to apply random offset rotation and scale to your textures and procedural maps assigned to different objects that way you can get a different textural look on each element of your object which leads your render to look more realistic no matter which type of camera are you using whether it's your mobile phone or if it's a pricy DSLR camera you'll still get that effect in your photos and you already know that all of these tiny details are improving your render quality so don't neglect to use the pro feel even if the effect is very subtle for example look at the difference in these two renders it makes the huge difference what is composition composition is the structure of your photo it's positioning the objects in the frame in such a way that the reviewers eye is automatically drawn to the most interesting or significant area of the capture its composition that delivers your message and defines your style so there are several rules of composition that you need to learn I'll show you one of them and then I'll introduce maxscript which makes everything much easier for you one of the most well known rules of photographic composition and one of the most important things you'll learn in photography is the rule of thirds it involves breaking any image you want for rendering into thirds horizontally and vertically so that you have nine equal parts would integrate you'll notice that these lines intersect at four distinct points there are your points of interest basically the rule of thirds states that if you place the main subject of your photo in the top bottom left or right section of the grid you'll snap a perfect picture every time there's a maxscript called image comp helper which contains seven different compositions by selecting any of them you'll get some lines inside the viewport as kind of a render effect so no geometry will be created and no cameras needed they will interactively adjust to any image aspect and are visible in the active viewport so switching the viewport will also move the lines there so with this script everything will be so much easier for you I've put the link into the description if you want to download it obviously I cannot cover everything about that in this video so I'm making a more comprehensive video about this okay guys thank you for being with me during
