Excellent free Artlantis tutorial videos

[Karl Ottenstein]

I just came across a post in the Artlantis forums that may interest many here who either have Artlantis (using it or not), or have wondered what it is like to use.

Evan Troxel posted an excellent 20 minute video tutorial - clearly narrated with no wandering around the screen - on how to implement neon cove lighting in Artlantis. This tutorial actually illustrates dozens of need-to-know Artlantis working techniques in the process. "Methodcast" number 15 here:
http://www.getmethod.com/blog/2011/3/21/how-to-do-interior-cove-lighting-in-artlantis.html

He also has a 53 minute "Intro to Rendering in Artlantis" which I have not yet viewed:

Enjoy,

Hi Evant.

As you are an advanced user and I'm an beginner. Can you help me out?

I have to make an interior rendering in Artlantis. I that area in the building are no windows.
So I have to lighten up the scene, but I can't place a lot of lights because of the rendering time that is exploding than.

I already checked the exterior rendering in the rendering settings.

Are there any tips for me to make the scene more light as if there are lights in the area?

Thanx.

edwinhlm,

This is not the topic (video tutorials) for asking that question...

The proper place is on the Artlantis forums here:
