Hi all,

Got sent a max+brazil test render from a buddy and thought pov 3.5 could do
better
http://www.i-sight.net/digicam/kewl.jpg

both scenes only have 1 light used (ok so I used a teeny 4x4 area light to
give slightly softer shadows), and I decided to make mine slightly wider and
use chrome spheres (cos I like chrome)

Oh great...
I didnt knew there was some 3d application called Brazil !
Could someone tell a bit about it ?
(can be in private or in other forum, since it's quite off-topic here)

Would there be any problem if these scenes were added to the *advanced*
folder of the official distribution?

I can't speak for the POV-Team, but i think the set of scene files is
'fixed', if we start adding more things now, everyone will suggest other
things to add too...

Okay.
Nevertheless it would be great if it we could see the source...

BTW I think that that image does not really show what Brazil can do.

Me too! Being Brazilian I more than quickly checked their site
(http://www.splutterfish.com), and saw some very good images and animations
done with Brazil (I still don't get the name of the software, though...).
True, nothing that couldn't be achieved with POV, IMHO, but nevertheless
some great scenes. Plus, I guess it would take a lot more work than placing
spheres and light sources to get something like the following picture.

I went there as well (Mael sent me the link) and I dont get why is it called
Brazil !?

I would guess it's some coffee reason, like it is with Java.

But if I think how many polygons were used here...

Good call, I love that movie. (They would have to add some pretty weird
cameras, materials and models to the standard libraries if that was the
case, though...)

Anyway, I just asked the owners of the site what is the reason. I'll post
the answer, should I get one.

PS: fala, mano Wilson, bom saber que o POV tem outros adeptos brazucas.
Que eu saiba agora já somos 3: o Renato Oliveira, você e eu (que freqüentam

I couldn't resist.

Took me a little under four hours to create this, and it took 1 hour, 38
minutes, and 56 seconds to render. (Would have been faster, but I sorta
forgot to set render priority to "high"... heh =)

This uses isosurfaces, radiosity, and focal blur (obviously). I'm still not
entirely happy with the shape of the cells, and I couldn't get them to
"glow" like the Brazil image does.

not as many as you might think - geometry is vital, but you would be
surprised how a good texture and a little focal blur can save you hours of
modelling - the old rule of thumb - if no one is going to notice, cheat.

besides, for this particular image I am thinking an iso surface and blobs :)
