LAYERS! LAYERS! LAYERS! This has sped up my workflow by more than two times. Not all library Elements and lights will be in all your render perspectives, so instead of deleting and adding objects a hundred times, separate into layers wisely.
I need to start using Lumion Layers more! I only rely on them when the model is too heavy, but often times I forget 😅 I always talk about Layers in Photoshop, Illustrator and all programs, but for some reason, I skip them here. Thanks for sharing that, IMposure! If part 2 really comes to life, I'll make sure it is included then!
YESSS unfortunately I had to learn this the hard way, but when I got an example model and saw how much easier life is with layers I have never looked back haha
You should mention that the sample scenes that come with Lumion have a lot of great settings already- you just need to copy them and paste (and tweak) those settings into your model
I may not be commenting but I have been your admirer since my architectural journey. I really love your minimal approach in everything you create, and I'm curious how you make your videos and if you could show us your process will be awesome!
Awsome video. Congratulations for the result! I vote for part 2. Can you make a tutorial with the creation process of this image? It really looks fantastic, I could never archive something like that with Lumion. Thanks!
For a project a few months ago i needed to create the terrain of a real world place in a 3d environment and after a lot of tries i used tangram heightmapper to render an image of that place with raster data and i uploaded it in lumion as terrain. It worked well but keep in mind that in lumion the work environment has precisely 4km^2 (2x2km) so you must crop the raster image to fit an are of approximately 2x2 km. Use some reference objects from google maps and measure the area. I hope what i just said makes sense =)
Eu sempre fui um fã do seu trabalho, gosto muito da qualidade que vc propõem. A maneira como eu olho a arquitetura hoje e também a maneira como eu faço as minhas representações, foi graças ao seu trabalho! Valeu mesmo! Eu criei o meu canal, pois queria transmitir esse meu lado louco de arquiteto e devo muito a ti, de verdade!
Poxa muito obrigado pela mensagem! Fico muito feliz em saber que o trabalho que faço impacta de maneira positiva outras pessoas. E boa sorte nessa nova jornada! Acabei de me inscrever no seu canal, fb studio!
Extra tip to help you : You see the problem with curved elemnts ,thats cause by the live sync .so its better to export the file as colada .UDE and when ever you need to update something jusy overwrite the file then in lumion press refresh and you good to go .
I'll have to try that out! If it really fixes the reflections with curved elements, it'll be fantastic! 🙌 Thanks a lot for the tip! I do like the live sync because I often start working on the rendering with the 3d model under construction still, but if it fixes, there's no discussion and I should change my workflow! 😄
Yeah i was working just like you with live sync and i noticed that any cuarved surface is taking a sharp edges .like theres was a circles turnd into polygons . So i started to experment with it and found out exporting is higher detail . Ps : if you still expermnt some issues with reflections just add PBR reflection map . Hope that help 🙏🏽
O Lumion parece ótimo pra fazer pós-produção! O visual fica muito bonito de cara, não fica muito realista como o Vray ou Enscape, mas tem muito bloco massa e umas 30 mil opções de filtros kkk
Independente de ser patrocinado esse video, eu gosto bastante do Lumion quando se trata de agilidade! É bem rapido conseguir bons resultados. A renderização é rapida e os blocos ajudam muito a humanizar um espaço sem perder tempo procurando bom modelos. Mas não descarto o Vray quando tenho mais tempo de produção. São ferramentas diferentes.
maybe try and make a elaborate guide on how each settings work in lumion.. would be very much helpful for beginners to understand each of the settings..
**possible a hot take?** - Unless you're working for a render house, post production in Photoshop is not really feasible due to time constraints. Most others in the AEC industry need to be as fast as possible. I commonly need to update 20+ renders an hour before a client presentation with some significant changes. Adding in post production would make the efficiency edge of using Lumion moot, might as well go back to SketchUp / Vray. That being said, I turn my people to face away from the camera 95% of the time, haha.
You're totally right, Kevin! I've worked some time on this specific niche, and the client often times doesn't care about the image after post-production. They are more than happy with the plain renders with 3d people. What I've done (and have seen other firms do it as well) is to do the first batch of images the best as possible with lots of identity and post-production, and then for changes and for sharing with contractors down the line just simple and plain renders that get the message across. And then share over social media and website those really nice first images. But maintain the speed on the daily tasks. Here on the channel, I talk to all types of niches, from people working directly in archviz firms to those that use rendering as just a bit on their architectural practices. So there's usually no right answer that will fit all audiences. I share my point of view and here in the comments is where we can enrich the discussion. So I appreciate your feedback! Thanks 😄
Hi, this is amazing, thanks a lot. could you do a video on how to do a realistic & sketchy exterior views in? Especially combining sketch, paint effects with realistic materials. thanks a lot.
Hi. Thanks for excellent tips. Is it possible to explane more about reflection. Especially window glass. Mine is looking not realistic, to much glass or so.
Thanks, mina chann! I've put together a kit with my current setup and the laptops I recommend. It really depends on your budget. Feel free to check it out: kit.co/learnupstairs The laptop I'm currently using is a ConcetpD 7 Ezel, I've created a couple of videos using them, here's one of them: th-cam.com/video/uBpplQMsl9I/w-d-xo.html
I Would love to Know what your guys average Time spent for medium Project (Office Building/Shop/Company..etc) on Lumion to make a full project Render not just few shorts talking like 20-30 angles. Thx

Have learn something from you video. Thank you sir. Please am interested in your Architecture Post-production in Photoshop course. Can i get i discount?
The problem with Lumion is the viewport... It keeps trying animate things when you don't need and it makes a laggy experience in big projects. Also the previsualization isn't that good in the composition mode... You got to imagine how it will gonna be in the final results...
I also think so! Since this video was about tips I didn’t mention all the things I didn’t like. But the viewport has a lot of improvements to be made for sure! Idk why you can’t visualize the material (only the material) as a stand alone rendering, like Vray for example. The camera (viewport) is somewhat limited too. No custom aspect ratios and the preview that doesn’t match the final result. And it can get very laggy as you mentioned once the project gets more complex
The one tNice tutorialng I would like to do (and tNice tutorials will completely convert ) is to copy and paste items from one project to another, it just doesn't

Layers in Lumion are the most stupid thing ever! They are so buggy and weirdly placed... UI and UX sucks to be honest
YESSS unfortunately I had to learn this the hard way, but when I got an example model and saw how much easier life is with layers I have never looked back haha
Especially for animation
Really?
With all the soft soft tutorials that exist on YT, yours just created that "light bulb illumination" mont in my head. Thanks for taking the
I paused as you went along and did the steps myself and that helped a TON.
Yes!!! We need more tips and skills! Thank you for share your thinks!
thank you for this video! I would love to see part 2!!! I recently downloaded lumion and having this as a start guide is really helpful.
You should mention that the sample scenes that come with Lumion have a lot of great settings already- you just need to copy them and paste (and tweak) those settings into your model
That's a great tip! I must include this one in the next video then.
And the sample scenes can teach new users a lot too. Appreciate your input, Brian!
It is a good tip brian but that gives the image that lumionish feel !
You're damn right I want to see more. Cool tips, much appreciated. Do you have anything such as this on Twinmotion?
Excellent tips! we will wait for 10 more! Great Job Oliver. Thanks a lot.
Big up from Tunisia 🇹🇳 for all the work you do, the advice and all the effort you provide !
All the way from Tunisia! That's amazing!

You must know your way around Lumion then haha

What version of lumion are you using in this video ? Thanks
I believe it was the version 12. Just before the Ray Tracing update came out. So this video needs to be updated as well 😁
The problem with Lumion is the viewport... It keeps trying animate things when you don't need and it makes a laggy experience in big projects. Also the previsualization isn't that good in the composition mode... You got to imagine how it will gonna be in the final results...
I also think so! Since this video was about tips I didn’t mention all the things I didn’t like. But the viewport has a lot of improvements to be made for sure!
Idk why you can’t visualize the material (only the material) as a stand alone rendering, like Vray for example.
The camera (viewport) is somewhat limited too. No custom aspect ratios and the preview that doesn’t match the final result. And it can get very laggy as you mentioned once the project gets more complex
What would be the best program recommendation work flow wise if Lumion gets a big laggy? Ive heard many opinions but would love to learn more
