My try on cinematic arch viz

Try looking at Berlin Flat demo by xoio on the marketplace. Study the lighting done by them. I’m sure the scene in the link you provided pretty much uses the same lighting set up as xoio’s.

Beautifully composed and lit - I think you demonstrate exactly why an architectural education helps with arch viz.

My one minor quibble is the level of glossiness on some materials - those Ando-inspired cast in-situ concrete panels are not quite that shiny in real life. They definitely do have more reflective sections, but they tend to be a little “flatter” and softly blend between the more rough parts. I see you’ve used Koola’s material, so I assume it can be easily played with? Just the roughness map needs to blend between the darker and lighter sections a little more progressively.

I’m doing my masters in architecture, specialising in arch-viz using UE4 and have spent the last 8-9 months trying to get Zumthor (Thermal Baths at Vals) and Ando (Chichu Art Museum in Japan) into UE4 so can totally appreciate where you’re at. Great work, nice to see some more “elemental” arch-viz work, somehting that isn’t the ubiquitous white Scandinavian apartment.

Hey everyone,

Thank you very much you are really casting light on the subject.

So from your latest 2 posts ExpiredYogurt , eliotbnz , what i can understand is that to achieve this realism in this scene : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8kdjJ1qsL2c , i can totally rely on the marketplace and the learn section arch viz examples lighting setups

and try to produce more realistic real life like materials tweaking the roughness and so on . but one thing is confusing me if the learn section examples are intended to be ideal learning resources why they are not looking so realistic like the youtube arch viz videos ?!.

please i need if you have answers ,cause i need to decide if i can persevere the arch viz as a full time job at an architectural firm .

Thank you.

Best regards,
