Overview
This book is the definitive guide to Mental Ray that also explains how to translate science into art, lighting theory, camera theory and cinematography. The book further contains fantastic snippets not only on how to manually achieve great results, but how to automate these settings and create powerful scripts. This book explains sophisticated, yet simple scripts that automate the tasks that users of 3D Studio max, V-Ray and Mental Ray have found tedious. Using real world calculus and theories of lighting, this book develops scenes that automatically calculate the ideal camera settings in order to obtain the best possible render from a scene.
