Hey everyone!

This week’s Monday Movie is on VRay displacement and map-based materials. I’ll be talking about how to set up these materials, as well as how to keep them from taking up too much time during rendering.

Later this week I’ll be releasing another Monday Movie for you viewers that are hoping for me to get back to some heavy mental ray concepts. Also, I’m still working on the site redesign. I expect to have it released sometime in April. Some of the expected changes include:

Transcriptions and auto-translation for every Monday Movie,
Better, more robust tagging and categories,
Page-specific formats,
720p HD video footage,
and more!

I’ll keep you posted as it happens!
