V-Ray | Light FOG EFFECTS Made Easy

How to Create Realistic Light Fog Effects in V-Ray for Cinematic Lighting? 👉 𝗦𝗰𝗲𝗻𝗲 𝗙𝗶𝗹𝗲𝘀 + 𝗕𝗼𝗻𝘂𝘀 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁: https://www.patreon.com/jonasnoell In this video, we will create realistic localized light fog effects to add cinematic atmosphere to your scenes — without flooding the entire environment with fog. First, we will discuss the problem with traditional environment fog and why it often ruins your lighting setup. Then, we'll build a smart system using "Gizmos" to isolate fog only where you need it, optimizing your render times. Finally, we'll add natural structure to our fog using a 3D noise map to achieve a beautiful, photorealistic result. 𝐈𝐧 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐕𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐨, 𝐘𝐨𝐮’𝐥𝐥 𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐓𝐨: ✅ Setup localized fog areas without modifying your whole scene ✅ Optimize rendering performance by controlling where fog is calculated ✅ Use "Gizmos" to contain fog volumes realistically ✅ Add natural noise and texture to your fog for more realism I am using 3ds Max and V-Ray 7 in this demo but you can also use identical techniques for in other software such as Cinema4d, Maya, Blender and different kind of render engine such as Corona, Octane, Redshift, Arnold, Cycles, Eevee and countless others. ▶️ 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 00:00 - Overview 02:14 - Gizmos 04:17 - Localized Fog 06:32 - Blending Borders 07:49 - Volumetric Textures ▶️ 𝐇𝐞𝐥𝐩𝐟𝐮𝐥 𝐋𝐢𝐧𝐤𝐬 ⚡𝐏𝐚𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐨𝐧: https://www.patreon.com/jonasnoell ⚡𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐦: https://www.instagram.com/jonas_noell_cgi/ ⚡𝐒𝐮𝐛𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐞: https://www.youtube.com/@JonasNoell?sub_confirmation=1 If you found this tutorial helpful, please hit the Like button, Comment your thoughts, and Subscribe for more 3D rendering tips.
