This book is a comprehensive step‐by‐step guide tailored for designers seeking to elevate their visualization skills using the powerful combination of Corona 11 in 3ds Max 2024. It begins by acquainting readers with the 3ds Max interface and fundamental commands, ensuring a solid foundation for navigating the software. Readers will be guided through the process of assigning Corona and fine‐tuning rendering settings, setting up cameras, and mastering both natural and artificial lighting techniques within their scenes. It then progresses to the creation of materials, their application to the scene, and the utilization of Corona’s libraries and presets for efficiency. The potentials of Corona are detailed using a bedroom scene as an example. This practical guide demystifies the complexities of 3D rendering without delving into modeling techniques. With design studios increasingly incorporating 3D renderings into their proposals, Create Stunning Renders Using Corona in 3ds Max: Guiding the Next Generation of 3D Renderers serves as an invaluable resource for professionals and aspiring renderers alike. It aspires to contribute significantly to the evolution of the next generation of 3D rendering artists, making it an essential companion for those eager to master the art of photorealistic renderings in the dynamic landscape of 3ds Max and Corona 11.

This book is filled with examples explaining the theoretical concepts behind them. Filled with sample screenshots, diagrams, and final rendered images, this book will help readers develop an understanding of photographic rendering with V-Ray. If you are a SketchUp user who would love to turn your favourite modelling application into a 'virtual photography studio', then this book has been designed and written for you. Existing V-Ray users will also find plenty to enjoy and benefit from in this book. Some basic experience with SketchUp and familiarity with photography will be helpful, but is not mandatory.
