What you'll learn

We'll start by using an IBL (image-based lighting) setup. Along the way, we'll create complex shader materials and define our surface material within a photographically lit environment. Finally, we'll create precomps and lighting comps using NUKE. By the end of this V-Ray for Maya tutorial, you'll have learned some new tips and tricks for your own lighting and rendering projects.
