TOP TEN LIST OF RENDERING ERRORS NOT CAUSED BY SOFTWARE

Dwight

For fun, I'm starting this topic for ArchiCAD TALKers to post what they think are the worst human error things we do in making renderings that will persist with the LightWorks engine:

1: Shadow on the front door - grim reaper death

2: obvious repetitions of material textures - hick

3: well?

Perhaps it is a top one hundred??

I did notice that hot Artlantis woman mincing around in your model for the 3d World tutorial. You better hope the Woman In Red doesn't find out about her.

Woman In Red Dress left for wooden indian Kawliga made famous by ill-fated country singer Hank Williams.

Rendering errors:

Too high viewpoint
No composition
No sense of perspective
Adding entourage in Photoshop, where the following invariably happens:
3 or more meters tall people
Floating cars of wrong size
Wrong perspective
No shadows
Grainy trees and/or cars in forefront

nausea kicking in ... sorry ...

Using various stick-on people in a scene & ignoring that they're all lit in differing light conditions & from different angles. ie: ignoring the scene lighting when chosing stick-on entourage...

Like as if a simple flip couldn't solve most of that - but many ArchiCAD users are simply too irate to buy Photoshop.
