We will dive into work with Octane Render and start lighting our composition. I will explain in depth all the lighting tools needed for this scene and we will set up our camera effects!

Shading! After our lighting it’s done, we will apply and create pastel materials to give us the look that we want!

We will, once again, dive into work with Octane Render to do our lighting. We will go through applying textures to your lights and using Skylight for getting the result we want.

Materials! Besides doing some simple texturing, we will go through applying noise patterns, gradients, smudges and scratches to our materials so you can feel comfortable working with materials in the future!

In this lesson, we will finish applying our material knowledge to the second scene before we start doing our VDB cloud.

Let’s get to work in Houdini to create our VDB cloud. After that, we will give color to our cloud. Don’t be afraid, it will be super easy!

Let’s wrap up our composition with the needed finishing touches!

In this bonus video, I will share with you an overall breakdown of a different composition that I did applying the same principles, techniques and tricks that you’ve learned during this masterclass.
