- Environments: Here you can find many great setups of HDR images to use as background and light sources (you can also import your own HDRI).

- Materials: Here you can find a list of materials to apply (to drag-and-drop on your model).

We will use the following sections tin this tutorial: materials, colors, environments, back-plates, textures, and renderings. The library panel shows you what you can add to the scene (for example, another material on your car, or simply another HDR image).Įxplaining the most important elements of the KeyShot interface The library The project panel shows you what you have in your scene.

#KEYSHOT 6 TUTORIAL SOFTWARE#

Remember that in your modeling software you have to set up the units, such as meters. This will allow you to understand what you should change. Open KeyShot and import your model – you will see a nice real-time rendering in your view. Once you have allocated the colors to your model, export your model (I use OBJ files, but there are many other choices). In older versions of KeyShot you should use color, but in the new version it works through materials.Īllocate the right colors to your model in your 3D software Importing your model In this way, you group the objects for KeyShot. So let's begin! In your modeling software you have to give the same color to those objects that will have the same material in KeyShot. This tutorial covers these features along with the settings used for the rendering of the car you see in this image. All of the changes and adjustments to the scene happen right in front of your eyes. It offers presets environments (HDRIs) as well as physical lighting, hundreds of scientifically accurate materials and settings that are simple to adjust. That is exactly where we see the power of KeyShot. The key to a great rendering is the quality of light and use of material. You may wonder what the key is to creating great renderings. KeyShot changes that completely, putting the ability to create stunning imagery in the hands of every designer. Many designers have great models but bad renderings – and a loss of quality in their portfolio that can affect job prospects or landing a project. For those who create hundreds of test renderings just to achieve the right angle for reflections, you'll understand how much time you can save with that feature alone. 'WOW, real-time reflections of the HDR image on the model', I thought to myself. When I first imported a model to KeyShot, my jaw dropped.

It's the solution for many designers who don't want to waste time with complicated rendering software. KeyShot is a very user-friendly 3D rendering application that allows you to create photorealistic visuals in a very short time.
