Arnold tutorial - How to create a CD shader in MtoA Arnold renderer 2021-11-30 | This tutorial will show you how to create a realistic CD shader with anisotropic reflections. Anisotropic reflections are based on the orientation of small grooves (bumps, fibers, or scratches) that exist on a reflective surface. We will achieve this effect using a radial ramp connected to the anisotropy rotation.Things to note:You may need to change the UVs depending on the mesh that you are using for this effect to work. You may also need to increase the number of subdivision_iterations to remove any anisotropic faceting that you might see on the CD mesh.Even though I duplicated three ramps in the video, you could probably just use one ramp and connect it to the three UVTransform shaders.Thanks to Zap Andersson for his assistance with this tutorial.docs.arnoldrenderer.com/display/A5AFMUG/Speculardocs.arnoldrenderer.com/display/A5AFMUG/Anisotropic+Brushed+Metaldocs.arnoldrenderer.com/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=40111353docs.arnoldrenderer.com/display/A5AFMUG/Rampdocs.arnoldrenderer.com/display/A5AFMUG/UV+Transform#maya #arnoldrenderer #shading

Arnold tutorial - How to use the user_data_RGB shader in C4DtoA. Arnold renderer 2021-10-27 | This short tutorial covers how to use the user_data_RGB shader to assign a single shader with different colors to the three models in the scene. You can add user data attributes to shape nodes in C4D, and C4DtoA will export those extra attributes as user data in the Arnold shape nodes. When the scene is translated to Arnold, attributes are not exported automatically. They must first be added as C4D 'user data' to the geometry. On export, C4DtoA translates them into user attributes on the Arnold geometry.docs.arnoldrenderer.com/display/A5AFCUG/Example%3A+User+Data+RGBdocs.arnoldrenderer.com/display/A5AFCUG/User+Data#cinema4d #arnoldrenderer #shading

Material Transfer in Production using Arnold and MaterialX Arnold renderer 2021-07-05 | A modern VFX (visual effects) rendering pipeline is made up of many materials with detailed descriptions called looks. Looks need to be passed across different software products without loss of fidelity. Current workflows involve duplication across complex pipeline tasks that are hard and laborious to maintain. Arnold software lets you author asset looks in any supported software and then reuse the same looks in another software using the Arnold data format, which is fully extensible. Arnold furthers this approach by capitalizing on open-source back ends like MaterialX and USD, enabling users to build a very flexible, reusable, and connected pipeline. Arnold users can take advantage of this interoperability right out of the box. The data is always live, enabling users to make alterations (major or minor) at any point in the pipeline. In this talk, you will learn about setting up your pipeline to capitalize on reusability of looks. You will also see examples of taking your asset looks through different software.
