Neat Video, Render noise reduction.
I have recently being using Neat Video and I have to say I supremely impressed with the results. It works great on video footage as I would expect and it also works REALLY well to clean up renders that have had to low subdivs on reflections etc… The video below is an example that was rendered in [...]
Suzuki Grand Designs TVC
Towards the end of last year we (Our Vision) were engaged to create a Grand Designs inspired TVC for Suzuki who are sponsors of Grand Designs Australia. As usual we had a tight timeline to turn it around in. The animation went from previz to final in one week, over the next week we rendered an comped. [...]
Another One 77
I was recently playing around with an idea for car render. I chose to use my Aston Martin One 77 model. It was rendered with V-Ray 1.5 with all of the post being done in Digital Fusion 6.3 (Which I recently purchased). I hope you guys like it I would love to hear any feed back you [...]
V-Ray Simple Set GI Paths
Continuing my theme of releasing simple and useful scripts, I thought I would release this simple tool for quickly setting both Irradiance Map and Light Cache auto save and from file paths.

One of the best features of maxscript is that you can create tools very quickly and intuitively. Often the simplest tools are the ones that can lead to massive time savings. This was the case when my good friend Warwick Hays from Monkey3Media asked for my assistance in creating a small tool. The tool in question was Studio Tools which [...]

Wire Colour Tools is a simple script for setting random wire colours to all of the objects in the scene. Anyone who does allot of post work either in PS or a compositing package should find this script useful. Being able to adjust any element or of your project in post by the object enables [...]
V-Ray Material Shortcuts
These short cuts are really collection of very simple Macro scripts. Like my Turn Viewport Maps On/Off this one has had some serious staying power with artists to date it has to be one of my most used scripts. All of the macros are designed to manipulate V-Ray materials globally throughout the scene, very quickly and efficiently. Each macro effects [...]
Maxscript, speed up your workflow
Every day I get asked if a can whip up a script for this or a script that etc. More often than not I just walk over to the artist machine and do a very simple type in, maybe a few lines at most and that will solve their problem. Now not that I mind [...]
