Newsletter #29 - Nissan Juke by Cluster Studio
We had the pleasure to work with the talented team at Cluster Studio on one of their latest projects, a car commercial for Nissan Juke. They did a variety of challenging creative and technical work from toon-style rendering to photo-real close-ups of the car exterior and interior in RenderMan, and chose our Carpaint shader for the close-up rendering of the car.
“RenderMan Studio ships with a great library of physically plausible shaders, however for an extreme close-up in our Nissan Juke commercial, we needed a very specific look for metallic car paint. The paint had to look completely photorealistic, and we found that we required more artistic controls, including adjusting color layers, shaping metallic flakes, and pattern placement. We used LollipopShaders’ Carpaint shader to achieve these desired looks out-of-the-box and are very happy with the final result. Their Carpaint shader integrated well with the other shaders and lights in RenderMan Studio, while providing us with the extended functionality we needed for this project. It was a pleasure working with the team and we look forward to using their other shaders on future projects!”
