Office Scene

[dhatch01]

This is a render of a scene I have been working on. I'm not very happy with the lighting yet.

Any suggestions or comments would be appreciated.

Thanks!

The outside seems kinda boring. I you might want to try and give us the viewer more clues about where (and when?) this is.

For the lighting, you might want to try having more dimmer lights, than one bright one for the scene. If you want to take the time, I'd suggest adding some smaller spotlights embedding in the ceiling.

Also, I'd ad some texture to more of the surfaces. Give the carpet and the furniture some subtle variations. See if you can't get better reflections in the windows.

This is a really great start. I agree with many of the
comments that T_Man has made about adding texture
and toning down the lighting, Specifically, in the outside
of the biosphere/skyscraper(?).

The circle motif is a great idea for unity but everything seems
like it is pushed to the outer edge of that circle.

If I may suggest:
1. Reduce the size of Army transparency.
2. Add scuffing on trafficked areas of carpet.
3. Add design to the carpet or a 2cd carpet.
4. Define the background with landscape/skyline.
5. Move up and over camera so desk is not in exact center.
6. Move some furniture closer to center.
7. Crank down volumetric light in background.

Keep at it it's got alot of potential!

Thanks for the comments and suggestions!!

The light looks a little hot because of the radiosity. With radiosity off it actually looks a lot better.

I plan to add more office clutter (pictures on the walls, chairs, etc.), I just wanted to try to get lighting and textures right before I overload it with stuff. he he.

Great suggestions, though! I really do appreciate it and any others anyone wants to post!!

I finally got a few days to play with this once again, and tried to incorporate some of the suggestions made here, and I think they helped a great deal.

The scene is still not complete, but I am much happier with the lighting now.

Any more suggestions would be appreciated!

That's come on a lot!

I don't like the moire patterns on the drop down screen, amd the blue sky colours outside seem a bit too saturated.
