Recommendation: NSDT scene editor helps you quickly build 3D application scenes that can be redeveloped
Sometimes, with simple images and simple techniques, we can create effective output. In this tutorial you will learn how to create a cinematic scene in 3ds max using three simple images.
step 1
Let's create 3 images for the scene in photoshop.
Then we process these images in 3dsmax.
Step-2
These are the images we will be using for this tutorial.
Step-3
Stitch images together.
Step-4
Step-5
Merge these two images and copy the following parts and paste them on the right to give the same ground type look
Step-6
Step-7
extended road
Extend the land on the left and merge the road and land layers together.
Step-8
The sky can now be removed using the Polygonal Lasso Tool.
Step-9
We create black and white images for masking in 3dsmax.
Step-10
Again, let's create another mountain scene.
Black and white image of the scene above.
Step-11
Create clouds.
Combining the two images above gives this result...
Step-12
Let's take a look at 3dsmax. Shoot a simple plane in top view with 50x50 segments.
Step-13
Select "Material Editor (M)", select black and white mask image in opacity.
In Diffuse, select the corresponding original image.
and apply the material to the plane to get such a result.
Step-14
Applies an edit mesh to a plane.
Select Vertex from the Edit Mesh.
Select a part of the mountain.
Select Soft Selection and set the Falloff to 107
Use the Select and Rotate tool to bend it to get a result like this.....
Step-15
Likewise, create the rest of the image using planes and position them as follows.
Step-16
Let's create the thunder effect
We randomly placed several omni lights near the sky.
Step-17
From each omnidirectional light, we exclude all planes except the sky plane.
Step-18
Now, choose any almighty, set the animation mode to "Auto key".
Step-19
Now, use the following parameters to toggle omni's "multiplier" on and off.
At each keypoint change the "Multiplier" value from 0 to 2, 2 to 0, 0 to 1.5, 1.5 to 0...etc.
Step-20
Similarly, randomize the lighting effects to the rest of the omni lights.
Set "Sky Light" with 0.1 times the intensity for the full scene.
Now, this is how it should be.
Step-21
Finally add the camera to get a final result like this.
I hope this tutorial was helpful to you.
Next time we will discuss in detail the cinematic effect projected with the camera.
