LIGHTING: Using Low Dynamic Ranges (LDRs)

Resurrected an old hard disk from years ago -So I thought I'd post some materials na matagal nang natago. Old concept but still production ready.

From Drop Box

HDRSHOP i know the software but dont know how to use it. Thanks sir V for this tutorial

Primary use would be conversion of sequential images of step exposures to HDRI. I only use it to convert mirrored ball images I took myself to Latitude/longtitude for use in MAX/Vray as environment maps, or as IBLs.

nice tuts sir!

Some people might ask, "What is LDR?"

Well, its your typical 8-bit images, targas, tiffs, pngs etc.

It does not offer the same illumination range you'd get from HDRIs but nevertheless usuable. Unless you aren't animating the intensities - LDRs do work fine for most puposes.

Next series would be on how to mimic or extend the brightness of the LDRs.

wow! abangan ko to sir!

thanks for sharing this bro...

thanks for sharing.. inspired na inspired ako vertex. i could just really feel your enthusiasm in helping everyone to raise their skills. thanks i will be a regular visitor here. thouhgt i knwo so much already but lo.. its very humbling to see that i have not scratch this world of CG.

Thanks nomer - I'm already lelong -The young ones have all the freshest ideas and energies. But they do not have the experience. If we mix the two we'd have the best concoction, - I think that's what we all need.

I'm happy that you feel inspired - that's my battery - without it, its hard to cook all these ideas.

See you around!
