i dont think every render need to have chaos to make it look real according to me the most important criteria make any render look photo realistic is have perfect lighting , real world scaling and some imperfection like scratches and dirt.
agreed! those things are definitely the groundwork for a realistic image, but i still like adding a bit of randomness afterwards to help prevent everything being "too perfect" 😀
I think your points are solid on making the render realistic but going too far can break the vibe of the scene like that before and after give a completely different vibe
I came here to say something like this: if you go to far towards chaos it’s also unrealistic. Like “the person who took the photo” would have straightened the chair, and probably swept up first.
@@JB-fh1bb Good point...in photography and art direction...controlling the details are key...any chaos shuold be very minimal especially in product shots.
I remember someone saying (but I don't remember who) that with photorealism, half of it is PHOTO. In order to make something look photorealistic we need to make it look like a photo as well. No matter how realistic a scene looks it will always look CG if it's crisp, camera imperfections like noise, dirt, lens flare and chromatic aberration will help with that as long as it's subtle
I was about to post that the height and rotation angle of the camera could be optimised, nobody takes a perfectly level shot and is exactly 6" tall. ;) Great content ! thanks for sharing your tips !
Nice work! To add a few more things; You can also add Halation, Burn, and other Chromatic Aberrations to make the renders more photorealistic. Because, CG at the end of the day is trying to achieve realism as captured by a real camera. So the 'chaos' of a physical camera might play a key role in adding more sense a manmade art.
@@davexmit it's easy to overdo it for sure, same issue with bloom, a trick I use is to dial in what i think is a good amount, then reduce it further by 30% 😄
I thought this video was going to be a "secret plugin" or something like that, but this amazing advice that can be applied by anyone and in any software. good job.
I found adding a very subtle distortion and light glare helps a lot. But the biggest improvement I found, is in adding denoising, specifically lightroom denoising, and a tiny bit of grain, which makes it looks like it was taken on a phone camera.
I need more tutorials like this one! There's not much blender hyperrealists out there on TH-cam to explain such important aspects of rendering. Waiting for more, keep it going ♥️
Some good points but it all depends on the final objective. You went from a clean, organized look that could be feature on a real state ad to an old messy room.
as mentioned in your video, one of the biggest factors that makes realism is inperfectionism. Take a picture with your phone and zoom in until you can see the pixels. You will notice that there are no pixels, but a crystal-like noise. If you do this with a render, you will see that every pixel is perfectly sharp. However, many people now think that you can add blurring. I'll say it right away, the blurring won't help much. That's why I have a solution. If you have Photoshop, click on Filters and then select the Crystallize filter from the list. Make the crystals as small as possible. Then you will have a realistic picture. Oh yes, and you have to add bloom and overexposure to renders, otherwise it will never be realistic. In realife it is also impossible not to get clipping because the dynamic between black and white in realife is simply too high. You can also do this in blender by rendering with AGX and overexposure. edit: add lens distortion and chromatic abberation when compositing to achieve maximum realism. AND IMPORTANT! Whenever you try to achieve photorealism, texture resolution does not play a major role, but when you build a scene, try to make everything that is not visible in the image realistic. That way the scene will look realistic from all directions.
Very good points. I'll agree with others that the chaos technique will vary wildly in intensity depending on the scene, to very little or almost none for those arch viz/interior design types of scenes. But aside from that specific scenario where you're trying to make something like you would see in a interior design magazine, it's absolutely very important. Even a "clean" interior scene needs little bits of chaos to make it seem lived in and used. Or else it looks like something that was just built, painted and set up and nobody has ever step foot in it yet. I had no clue about gobos, thanks for that. Really makes a massive difference in terms of realistic lighting and shadows to a scene.
i don't know why this is so controversial, this looks great and is a valuable strategy. I doubt most of the people complaining make renders half as realistic as that.
that clean look DOES exist in real life. geometric imperfections sometimes aren't even visible. it's not a rule to enforce on every workpiece but a factor that contributes to the realism.
i tend to go the other route of making complex procedural materials and geo node setups to achieve the imperfections and sculpt manually all the closeup details
As a still-life photographer who works a ton with light and is transitioning more and more to 3D. I can tell you that all of this is nice, but the problem is light module in 3D in general. It’s always too clean. It never bounces of materials correctly (or should I say randomly), giving you that "somethings off" type of feeling. That combined with the camera in Blender. The depth of field is never realistic enough. It’s to "plasticy" and images like these would also have some imperfections regarding how the camera and lenses works. So you can add as much imperfections to the scene as you want. But the lack of light randomly reflecting of materials (especially metal surfaces, color cast of the books to the wall due to the material and hot sun etc.), too perfectly controlled shadows (everythings i too even) and lack of lens distortion or chromatic abberation is what gives CGI a way the most.
100% agree! i would love to see some improvements in Blender's depth of field specifically, I know there's some addons that add dirty bokeh, but having it built-in would be such a nice feature. btw can you recommend any great resources for studying light in still-life photography? i'd love to hear, cheers! 😅
Another thing is that you can add noise in a photo editing software to make the image more realistic, as no camera out there can take an image without some of noise or grain
Also a great technique is adding bits of dust in hair to objects in your scene. There is a great video by EJ 3D called "How to add realistic dust and hair in blender" it really elevates the realism but adds some complexity to the scene so use its parently. Fire video btw🔥🔥🔥
If you are struggling to implement this workflow I suggest taking away these particular suggestions as bullet point changes to be made to a scene, and also try to come up with your own. I find having a list of what to do so I can definitely cross things off when they are done saves me from finicking around and wasting hours on small details that won't matter too much. The list also helps me get more small details done in a given set of time.
The beauty of photorealism! Once you start understanding how imperfect things make up a apparently perfect scene, you've got nothing to say but just be amazed by it 😋
yes this is really useful but real life can have simple and perfect shots as well. The trick for me is to add even just a tiny bit of fog and dust to every scene and adding noise to your renders so that it doesnt look like 3d but looks like a camera capture
No fucking joke this video was amazing. I'Ve never used blender just heard about it and was thinking of starting and u my dear have definitely inspired me to do so. I don't normally comment on things but the way u matter of factory went through the small details was super cool an informative! Keep up the great work homie
While randomness can add to realism. Its not whats required. Good lighting, good texturing and real world scale models (in order of importance) makes the most impact.
Its a good afvice for certain conditions like movies and videos whete u want to show your realistic design but when yiur doing archiviz or making advert then making these things look as clean and shiny as much as possible is better thung to do so every thung has a place thet it needs to be used in .
another 2 things thar can help; lens distortion Off camera objects, objects that arent fully in frame (makes it feel less framed and more like a real photo)
Amazing ! actually this can be applied to all software, each one is unique with the restrictions but still can be applied, the most important aspect of this video is the articulation, you are articulating the thoughts in order, so someone can take practically applicable notes.
Nice! The only thing I would suggest is an electric socket on the wall, and maybe a lamp on the desk that is plugged into it (adding an opportunity for another interesting light source).
What about professional architecture or real estate photography? There, the already perfect and modern places are flawlessly prepared and in post-production, they are even edited to be without any blemishes, yet you can still notice a difference between a real photograph and a rendering.
great example! i think in those cases it probably comes down to materials, lighting, composition and postprocessing (grain, abberation etc), moreso than "chaos" which is more appropriate when going for an "artistic" type of scene 😄
The concept of chaos is very interesting, especially the way you’ve broken it down. I think it’s a great framework. Now, I wonder how we can apply the same principles to our pipeline to make it more effective. For instance, how can we introduce chaos to our assets so that when we drag and drop them in the asset browser, it’s ahead of the time? There are many other areas we can explore for this application. In response to the question of ‘who lives there’, I would suggest that it becomes easier once you select the avatar. Consider what magazine they might be reading. In that magazine, you can find a list of products they aspire to own. This gives a quick general understanding of the person and adds realism without requiring extensive research."
great insights! having idiosynchrocies baked into the assets would certainly speed up the process, I noticed Ian Hubert loosely moves vertices around when modelling buildings to keep everything from being too perfect, you could emulate this with whichever asset library you download, but having an automated process would be much better... perhaps there's an addon out there for it 😁
Ian Hubert's speed is incredible. Imagine if there was a "Chaos" or, even better, a "Realism" button, @scenefiller. What if there was an AI that could identify why your image doesn't look real, giving scores on different areas you covered? It might take time to develop, but this "Get Real" addon could totally transform Archviz rendering, elevating the quality and allowing us to focus more on storytelling instead of technicalities. Wild idea, but it could be a game-changer I would call this addon : GET REAL Arcvhiz
If you do have to keep things clean and organized, some cameras tricks can help a lot too. Like sun beams, lens flare and lens dirt, dust particles, film grain, chromatic aberrations, etc. And all that can be added in post, no re-renders needed :)
i think one thing that i am missing is "caos" in your camera... i like more light and more light sources, exposure problems, noise, distortion, the shadows are too dark for a day scene
Can you walk through what is necessary for a scene like this? Do you build a square room, just the barebones of the walls, do you make a complex room? I find a lot of my room renders are cubey, how do I put in a cutout or a corner that is more in the real world?
sure! in this particular shot, the room was very simple: flat planes for the floor and walls, i also blocked in every wall and the roof even though they aren't in the frame (they still affect the lighting), one of the "walls" on the right had a hole cut in it to act as a window for the light to come in, without this the render would be completely black the assets are a combination of Polyhaven 3d models and things I modelled myself for the scene, the skirting was just an extruded cube that followed the shape of the walls, pretty simple overall! for a shot like this you can get away with lazy modelling i hope this helps 😋
yeh you're right! it's from the Polyhaven library but I think a subdiv on that would smooth it out quite a bit 😄
ปีที่แล้ว
@@scenefiller yes that could solve it. i think you said in the video that this render has a cg look and this was the first thing i noticed that stood out for me. is this "chaos" addition automatizable in any means? maybe some procedural generation?
Thank you for sharing, can I use this in Architecture visualization as in my current workflow I only use the last technique in the video but for the new building what can I do for realism instead of making it imperfect. Please share some thing I will apply in my new Archviz project. I also have one request for Archviz huge environment like background buildings, trees etc. is required to show the surrounding and like Unreal engine blender does not has it, can you make a video on this issue as I did not found any video for archviz big scene environment.

Haha you are funny. I have never ever thrown a bottle into any stack of anything on the floor in my bedroom. What if the setting in this room is just a brand new house with mid century details? But still your advise is excellent.
It's a great video really! But I have to disagree. You can make very simple and perfect scenes look photoreal, and that's because photorealism is entirely dependant on lighting and camera recreation in comp. This is a great example of adding too much imperfection and turning things into an abandonned urbex. I honestly think the first image looks more real. These are great insights to add interest to your scene though so props to you for that! Keep up the good work

you can add dirt to the window glare so it looks like the sun casting through a regular dirty window.

Another thing is that you can add noise in a photo editing software to make the image more realistic, as no camera out there can take an image without some of noise or grain

well i guess you got my sub keep up the good vids!
That is truly amazing 👏
thank you! im glad you like it 😃
I think the very last step on this render is to add lens imperfections leise chromatic abberations and distortion maybe lens strokes usw
definitely! those postprocessing additions take it to another level 😅
But definitely not too much
...sehr gut! (und auch gut präsentiert hier!)
Vielen Dank für die netten Worte! (ich spreche kein Deutsch, aber haha) 😁
good tips. concise
Thank you for sharing, can I use this in Architecture visualization as in my current workflow I only use the last technique in the video but for the new building what can I do for realism instead of making it imperfect. Please share some thing I will apply in my new Archviz project. I also have one request for Archviz huge environment like background buildings, trees etc. is required to show the surrounding and like Unreal engine blender does not has it, can you make a video on this issue as I did not found any video for archviz big scene environment.
🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation:
00:28 🌪️ *A chave para o realismo fotográfico no Blender é introduzir caos e aleatoriedade, imitando a natureza desordenada do mundo real.*
00:57 👨🎨 *Em CGI, as linhas perfeitas e bordas retas são incomuns no mundo real; a solução é usar o modo de escultura para adicionar irregularidades.*
01:54 🖼️ *Usar texturas de imagem real, que capturam a sujeira e imperfeições do mundo real, ajuda a quebrar a perfeição nas cenas renderizadas.*
02:24 ♻️ *A criação de sobreposições caóticas a partir de objetos e materiais do dia a dia pode adicionar detalhes realistas a uma cena.*
03:50 💡 *Posicionar objetos perto ou em torno da fonte de luz para criar sombras interessantes e guiar a atenção do espectador no cenário.*

Haha you are funny. I have never ever thrown a bottle into any stack of anything on the floor in my bedroom. What if the setting in this room is just a brand new house with mid century details? But still your advise is excellent.
fair point! brand new houses or archviz likely won't need as much imperfection 😅
Sometimes 3D artist go a bit over the top with imperfections to achieve realism. But lighting is key.
for sure! lighting, materials and scene composition should always be the first things you dial in 😁 cheers
Where i can find this goos plane for breaking up lighting ?
When I want photorealism, I take a picture 😎
that's certainly easier 😉
valuable information but i think you can make metal part of the table even better
That's not chaos that's details 🌝
tomato, tomato 😉
Littlefinger was right
Chaos isn't a pit chaos is a ladder to photorealism
Cool Dude... Keep Going to Work Up
amzing video thank you so much
thanks for checking it out 😉
I wish I knew this early. thank you so much! you got new sub!
i appreciate that! im glad you find it useful 😁
It's a great video really! But I have to disagree. You can make very simple and perfect scenes look photoreal, and that's because photorealism is entirely dependant on lighting and camera recreation in comp. This is a great example of adding too much imperfection and turning things into an abandonned urbex. I honestly think the first image looks more real. These are great insights to add interest to your scene though so props to you for that! Keep up the good work
fair enough! i suppose these can be extra things to think about when mixing it up 😁
"more interesting lighting" did like 98% of the heavy lifting in it. ❤
Great video
thanks! 😅
Beautiful vid
much appreciated! 😅
ngl the first image would have fooled me into thinking it was a photograph, but good tips!
thanks! i appreciate the kind words😁
