Need some images for front page

Post by OnoSendai » Thu Jul 16, 2009 2:22 pm

Hi everyone,
As part of the effort to style up the site a bit, we need some images showing off some features of Indigo.
These images are going to go on the front page (or at least a scaled, cropped version that will link to the full res image), so they need to be super-high quality.


Requirements:
* decent resolution (width of at least 1000px)
* no artifacts, including noise :)
* need to be a simple image/composition, as the image will likely be scaled/cropped down to thumbnail size, and so needs to 'scan' at that size.


We need one each of the following subjects:

* SSS: this image needs to show off the SSS capabilities of Indigo. Something like the orange juice renders would do, or a Jade sculpture, etc..

* Complex geometry - something showing off high-triangle count models, or the instancing capabilities of Indigo.

* Spectral rendering - something with some nice rainbows / prisms etc..

* Physical camera model - something with DOF effect, or aperture diffraction

* Motion blur

* Sun + Sky system

* Shaders

* Unbiased illumination - some kind of nice lighting situation that shows off the power of unbiased rendering.


Work already done / submitted here or elsewhere is fine, as long as you have the rights to use the image. No Evermotion etc.. scenes please.
We can put image credits on the full size image, and maybe on the thumbnail (if it fits).

Any help here would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks Godzilla, but that image is too little and too noisy.

Not sure if it fits any particular item above but you can use my final rings render when it's done. Cooking as we speak.

Awesome, maybe we can use that for the wildcard 'unbiased illumination' category :)

A few recentish works - all available in hir-res( 4500x4500). Also all have had some Pshop work done, mainly just some curves, to them so not sure if they are suitable.

Some very nice images there Doug.
Any chance I can see a higher res version of them, privately if necessary?

And this is one I'm currently working on that I think might show of dispersion quite well.
BTW I'm using the excellent diamond material made by wytraven.

Fantastic images Doug! :shock:
From the three still baking diamond pix I'd also pic the third one. But if I had the choice, I'd go for the "big and small crystal with children on a black mirror"-one. It really looks like taken out of a catalogue from the jewlery store. Would be even better with dispersion :wink:
I fell in love with the last one of your collection, the one with the buttons. It just has this very special something.
