  Rendering of smooth, simple surface

  Posted by Zdenek Dovole on December 13, 2009 at 12:48 am

  Hi guys,

  I would like to ask what is wrong with my composition – I am the new user of C4D, so excuse me, if the reason of my “problem” is just my stupidness…

  Have a look at this img {

  }

  The letters stands on the smooth surface – convex area, like a photographic background. There are three Area lights. But the final render of the background is not smooth.

  All what I am heading to is seamless, smooth background without that visible lines…

  The C4D project file can be found here {

  }

  Thank you!

  you are seeing the reflection of the backdrop object in itself. You could add a compositing tag to the LoftNurbs and uncheck Seen by Rays or just Seen by Reflection but either is going to be different (less white) than if the reflections were on. Another possibility is to make the splines in the LoftNurb complete rectangles so the backdrop is a tube (something) like this. 424_progresslogo.zip There are probably more solutions as well.

  Bloody hell!

  The reflections! Thank you… OK, I’ll try your recipe. Maybe it could help to open the background more to get this reflections out of the camera field.

  Once more, thank you, mate!
