In November 2015, Smith Micro announced the availability of the latest version of their 3D application in Poser 11 and Poser Pro 11.
To help compliment these releases, Renderosity is proud to announce that we have, once again, partnered with Mark Bremmer to deliver a cohesive package of free tutorials focusing on many of the new features included in Poser 11 and Poser Pro 11.
We value you as a community member and hope that these tutorials assist in offering you guidance as you continue your journey as a digital artist.
This month's lesson.
Caustics, Area Lights and Volumetrics
The Area Light will quickly become your favorite for creating realistic scenes - and when you couple it with volumetric lighting, you’ll enjoy it even more. However, some atmosphere effects don’t work with Superfly. Additionally, realistic reflections, focusing of light and intensities are now available thanks to Caustics, a method used by Ray Traced Render Engines. But adjusting render settings to maximize quality results is a must.
