Michael if your on land8 right now call me

all you have to do is print screen michael… all you have to do is print screen. I agree, squint/opera wins. I would like to know what there whole process is in post production. It would be interesting to find out what is 3d model, and what is put in afterwords.

honestly im not sure of the landuse protocol around turbines. I think you have to give up a little space for infrastructure but beyond that youre golden… but in any case i like the mvrdv rendering too. Squint/Opera just has so much depth and richness in their renderings, they are like pieces of art. Stinks that i cant theive the pics off their…[Read more]

Squint/Opera takes the prize every time. Very talented, however, I think Till Nowak might give them competition. I really like the rendering with the turbines by MVRDV, although I think that mechanized machinery might disrupt the plan come harvest time.

links work. it gives me something to do and makes me feel important. ill take a look.

thanks for the link. pretty talanted people, its interesting to see how they tell a story and the proportion of graphics to images and overall style. Once you start to use these programs you begin to understand the amount of work that goes into those productions.

for those interested in animations, the imagina awards

im leaning towards rendered images but if its something closely related i guess that would work too. they dont have to be your own. just something you think is worth everyone looking at. its not like “hey look at me” its more “hey look at this” and james there isnt any judging, its whatever.. i dont think im going to get enough images where i…[Read more]

These are rendered images? Do they have to be our own? Or can they just be really good renderings we find?

Who is judging?

this is a callout for images of the week submissions. please send them to my university account. michael.vanbeek@ndsu.edu. if you are unsure of an image’s relevance send it anways, ill check it out. hopefully there is interest for this out there. if you have any other ideas post them up i would appreciate it.

im going to put up a new “discussion” called image of the week, ill post it on mondays because its everyone’s favorite day.

Thanks for that book, that is great.

This is also a really good tutorial (in four steps) pretty complicated when it gets to the post processing stuff though.

I’ve got a very straight forward manual for 3ds Max called “3ds Max Architectural Visualization.” I use it all the time for reference and unlike most program manuals its very easy to follow. Pretty much covers all the basics. Just follow this link and the password is “dallas”.

David Fano is really good, he worked (works?) at SHoP architects in NY and has started a consulting company that show firms how to implement digital technology.

Plus he is very active on the site so you can ask him questions or request he do a tutorial on something.

David Fano at http://www.designreform.net has some excellent 3DS tutorials. His are focused on 3DS as a design tool and not visualisation.

He also has good grasshopper, rhino, and revit tutorials.

well, 3ds 2009 has intro tutorials. im not totally sure about 2008 but i bet it does too. do all of those, they will get you acquainted with some of the basics. from there find tutorials online, there are plenty of free ones area.autodesk.com is a good start. dont worry about finding landscape specific tutorials just do some. learning the tools is…[Read more]
