DESCRIPTION
I have received a lot of questions on my videos about D5 Render. You can find the product here:
d5render.com/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=google
So, I thought I better check it out. I went in completely blind on this video, and hadn't tried D5 before. In fact, I had hardly even heard of it. Well, let's just say that my mind was changed throughout the making of this video. I learned and discovered many interesting things about this product during my experimentation, which you can watch in the video.
Now, you know I have many thoughts about workflows, software, etc., and also that I am a Vray guy at heart. That said, I tried to keep an open mind. And besides, there is room for other tools within my professional archviz workflow. I need different tools for different demands, as I discussed in my "Perfect Workflow" video, here:
youtu.be/OmuvtGhoqrQ
So, can D5 make the cut? Do you think it will be easy for me to take a basic .fbx file and turn it into a finished rendering and/or animation in D5? Where could I see this tool being useful in my archviz workflow?
You'll have to watch the video to find out the answers to this and many other questions regarding D5.
Also, I would love to hear from you in the comments. Are you using D5, or can you see yourself using it in the future? Keep in mind you can use it for FREE! That will be a big deciding factor for many I think.
Check out the video and see if you think it is worth trying out! And, don't forget to download the .fbx that I use in the video if you would like to do some tests of your own.
Thanks for watching!
