LAMBERT LIGHTING

 

Lambert lighting is a process which involves obtaining an output using Mental ray render.

 

Our job was to get a light in a room when the sun has risen ( around 7.45 am to 8.30 )

 

 

The above image shows a room consisting of a table, and a torus.

 

To obtain this output, an area light is placed near the window.

A plane is placed outside the window which has a maximum incandescence with yellow colour. This plane acts as brightness of the sunlight in the morning.

 

The following images show the process of lighting

 

 

The room is lit with lot of area light to illuminate the room.

 



 

The above image is the final render with Mental ray.

 

Tools used

- ambient occlusion for the material

- Mental ray Blackbody for the area light placed at the window

- Directional light to get the warm light on the floor and table.

 

The area lights have various intensity to lit the room in desired way.

 

Mental ray was new to me and I learned a lot from it.

 

 

Here's a output of final render.
