Released earlier this year, V-Ray 5 for 3ds Max and V-Ray 5 for Maya represent a new generation of Chaos Group software that does more than just render. In this podcast, Product Specialist Alex Yolov and Software Tester Peter Matanov reveal the research and development process that’s expanded the capabilities of V-Ray. You’ll discover how V-Ray 5 integrates the retooled V-Ray Frame Buffer, Light Mix, Light Path Expressions and the ACESCG color space, and how they make artist workflows more efficient. Peter and Alex also discuss how user feedback, testing on real-world productions and input from Vlado himself helped create this innovative new version of V-Ray.
Over the past 12 years, V-Ray GPU has been developed alongside the CPU renderer to take advantage of increasingly powerful and specialized hardware — and now it’s coming of age. Joining Chris this week is Alex Soklev, whose passion for ray tracing has propelled him to the position of Team Leader in Chaos Group’s V-Ray GPU team. Fresh from his online GTC presentation, Alex breaks down the components that make V-Ray GPU such a versatile renderer. He goes into detail on integrating the Optix API to make the most of NVIDIA's latest RT cores, explains how clever technology such as out-of-core and on-demand rendering help keep GPU ray tracing fast and efficient, and gives a thorough breakdown of how static, dynamic and evictable geometry can keep rendering fast and efficient. It's a perfect refresher on ray tracing techniques — and you'll find out why V-Ray GPU can handle any scene no matter how much GPU memory you've got.

One year after his lively appearance on Episode #190, Shader Wizard Zap Andersson is back — and this time he’s talking all things Open Shader Language (OSL). Now a fully integrated part of 3ds Max’s viewport, this open-source language makes it quick and easy to use shaders across multiple rendering platforms, and tweak and develop your own. Zap discusses the development of OSL and how he put it to use via a 3D fractal, as well as revealing some neat 3ds Max tricks. That’s not all. Zap also tells Chris about his experiences at this year’s SIGGRAPH in Los Angeles, including his thoughts on facial animation and how machine learning could help us cross the uncanny valley. He also discusses his meetings with renowned VFX YouTubers Corridor Digital, how he’s developing his Android app Slightly Annoyed Rodents — and even arm wrestling Chaos Group’s Co-founder, Vlado Koylazov.
Victor and Chris first met at the THU festival a few years ago, and at Chaos Group’s Total Chaos event earlier this year they were finally able to sit down and record this podcast. What follows is a retelling of Victor’s journey from humble 3ds Max user to one of the most revered and distinctive 3D character artists on the planet. There’s lots of sound advice for artists here, including how Victor has overcome his fears of talking on stage and being interviewed by big companies, how he’s learned from criticism, and taking the first bold steps to become a freelance artist full-time. He also talks about how his dream job didn’t quite meet his expectations and his most recent work on Love, Death & Robots.

The CG industry is on the cusp of a dramatic shift. While ray tracing has always been the best way to achieve lifelike CG visuals, hardware and software advances are making it feasible for architects, arch viz artists and designers to use real-time engines to create astonishing imagery and VR experiences. In this podcast, Chris is joined by Chaos Group’s Vice President of Product Management Phil Miller and V-Ray for Unreal Product Manager Simeon Balabanov. The pair discuss the history of rasterized graphics, how they compare with ray-traced imagery and some of the myths around real-time. You’ll also learn how Chaos Group is making it easier to take ray-traced workflows into real-time with products such as V-Ray for Unreal and Project Lavina.
Objevte svět CGI a vizuality digitálního věku. Jakub Kolek vede rozhovory s osobnostmi z oboru, který je všude kolem nás, aniž bychom to možná tušili. Do třinácté epizody přijal pozvání Ondře Karlík. Ondřej je zakládajícím členem Render Legion a úplně prvotní tvůrce Corona Rendereru. Ten vznikal původně jako jeho bakalářská práce. O tom jak se projekt z děckého pokojíčku dostal až k akvizici do Chaos Group jsme si povídal v příjemném rozhovoru. Hezký poslech.
Game of Thrones’ opening credits sequence has become one of the most iconic in the history of TV. Every week, millions of people around the world have their appetites whetted and spines tingled by the famous theme music and an exploration of an animated 3D map of Westeros, complete with the themes and locations of the forthcoming episode. In this (spoiler-free!) podcast, Art Director and Head of 3D Kirk Shintani offers a complete breakdown how Elastic crafted this incredible intro, from the trial-by-fire process of the first season to the darker, edgier and more detailed version for the final series — and a special edition made from Oreos. Kirk discusses the fascinating technical aspects of shooting an animated digital miniature with virtual cameras, some of its clever design choices, as well as the crucial roles V-Ray and Chaos Group’s support have played in bringing the sequences to life.
Today we get to know Ana Lyubenova and Tanya Dilkovska-Petrova of Chaos Group. Chaos Group provides state of the art rendering solutions for architectural, VFX, film, media and entertainment, automotive design, and other industries. This episode is powered by the Swiss Entrepreneurship Program - https://www.entrepreneur-in-residence.net/ - creating jobs by strengthening the entrepreneurship ecosystem in six target countries.

Sabour Amirazodi joins us to talk about render engines and current projects, we talk Adobe/Algorithmic, a surprise call from Chad Ashley, Redshift v Octane, Double Bookings, Collaborations that aren’t actually collaborations, Creepy Deepfakes, Cavalry, Hat4D, fSpy, 3d Warehouse, and Chaos Group.
Over almost 25 years, Phil Miller has helped bring products such as 3ds Max, Combustion, Dreamweaver, and NVIDIA’s commercial rendering solutions to market — and dabbled in his own software and his original vocation of architecture. Now, Phil has brought his wealth of experience and knowledge to Chaos Group where he serves as vice president of product management. This podcast is a treasure trove of long-lost computing terms like Pentium processors, MS-DOS and ISDN lines. Phil gives a potted history of the ups and downs of technology, including the ingenious method he used to give plotted architectural illustrations a hand-drawn look, the success of his books on 3D Studio and 3ds Max, and how Chaos Group shook up the rendering industry with V-Ray RT. Phil is always a few years ahead of his time, and the podcast concludes with his thoughts on the future of CG, real-time rendering via Project Lavina and why speed increases are only part of the battle.

Show Topics: 0:00 – Sentry.IO – Advertisement! 1:30 – Chuck: Introduce yourself please. 1:39 – The guest talks about his background and the company he works for. 2:03 – Chuck: Did you build the web console or something else? 2:05 – Guest. 3:20 – Chuck: How do you run Ruby on the web console? 3:40 – Guest answers Chuck’s question. 4:13 – Chuck: The other question is about security concerns – you don’t want to run in production? 4:25 – Guest: No, you don’t want to do that. 4:31 – Chuck: Use at home - don’t use it on your work server. 5:15 – Panel: It’s one of those features that people overlook on Rails. You have to proactively add in a pack to launch in a web console in that particular view. A lot of times people will either throw away rays (ERB) and they are able to get the same thing but you can interact with the page w/o full rendering of the application. What I just mentioned what does a web console has a space for? 6:18 – Guest. 7:23 – Panel: What would happen – if I put a debugging code in my application and it got committed and shipped – what would happen? 7:46 – Guest answers. 8:24 – Chuck: When you deploy a production I don’t even know what this tag is? 8:33 – Guest. 9:10 – Chuck: Can I run it on Sinatra...or the other ones? 9:20 – Guest: If you make a bit of effort... 9:42 – Chuck: How does it pass things to the backend? 9:52 – Guest. 11:22 – Chuck: Let’s say you set this up and you would include the gem in the Rails app – I guess it comes by default. 11:36 – Guest. 11:58 – Panel: And if you want to embed it in a view in Rails? 12:05 – Guest. 12:06 – Chuck: That’s nice. 12:08 – Guest. 12:43 – Panel: I would think that would be the most exciting things. I know the views and how it’s included there is a little bit of a black box for me. I don’t know quite what is going on and that’s after many years of use. Being able to open the web console and see what’s going on and see what I was thinking. Sometimes when I have hard times with my code it’s because I didn’t understand the Rails way and how they organize things. So for me to take a look it dawns on me. 13:33 – Guest. 13:41 – Panel: I learned Rails on a laptop. I went to terminal mode only and I learned it really, really well. 14:21 – Guest. 14:27 – Panel: Can web console do a separate JavaScript app and then you have a Ruby API backend – can you use console any plugin to integrate with that? 15:00 – Guest. 16:20 – Panel: That’s really cool, and good note. When people are developing a gem they keep one type of Ruby or whatever. They don’t take into account that Ruby or the MRI or whatever they are using it’s cool that you are proactive keeping into account the different interpreters and it works across the platform. 16:56 – Guest: It’s a tricky business. 18:39 – Panel: So is this under active development or...? 18:45 – Guest. 18:53 – Chuck: What was the hardest part to put this together? 19:00 – Guest: Getting it to work! 19:09 – Chuck: Nope...just getting it to work. 19:15 – Guest. 20:43 – Panel: That’s something where I have been in situations where it has given back the Rails spec trace. Not the actual application – I have no idea how to debug it. Then I dig in deeper and find it’s in my application part. It is important to have that. 21:13 – Guest. 21:51 – Get A Coder Job! 22:15 – Chuck: Anything else or should we talk about the conference for a minute? 22:30 – Guest. 24:09 – Panel: So you are getting these conferences going – is there a healthy/strong Ruby following in Bulgaria, generally? 24:25 – Guest: We do Meetups. It’s pretty active and a healthy community. It’s not as strong as the States, but it’s strong. 25:26 – Panel: Nice. I find that it’s interesting – I was around with Ruby in 2004, and people have been using Ruby for a while and Rails was new. It’s fun to build an organization around that and empower people to do great things. It’s great to do work that are learning Ruby. 26:08 – Guest. 26:25 – Panel: So that’s one of my coworkers and got him using VS code and show people the light to make the switch. 26:50 – Chuck: I’ve already switched. 27:01 – Panel: We like our tools. 27:17 – Guest: I guess my people like VS code b/c it’s easier to maintain. 27:35 – Panel: Maybe my mind is so feeble-minded. 27:45 – Chuck: I turned on the EMAX for along time and turned on my EMAX in my KS code. I get the nice extras. I don’t feel like there are 10 zillion things to worry about. 28:12 – Guest. 28:21 – Panel: I think the key is the expressiveness – get it the ways I want 28:38 – Chuck: I just want to think of the fact that I am using code – and that’s a good thing. 28:54 – Guest. 29:04 – Panel: How many attendees did you have? 29:08 – Guest. 29:22 – Chuck: The conferences that I like to attend that have an attendance of 150, I like b/c it’s intimate. The larger conferences I feel lost in the crowd. It’s just different for me. 30:17 – Panel: It makes it easy to break into groups if the conference is small. 30:30 – Panel: There are so many things that the experts can teach and show to the beginners. They could teach me something that I didn’t know. It’s powerful b/c you’re talking about projects and get to know each other. 31:39 – Guest. 32:16 – Panel: One thing I like is that the attendees make a Slack channel, and the speaker can address that during the talk. Sometimes they get answered, but just in case. 32:40 – Chuck: Anything you’re working on now? 32:43 – Guest. 32:52 – Panel: Nice. 33:00 – Guest. 33:37 – Chuck: How can people find out about these different conferences? 33:50 – Guest: We have a Twitter account. 33:04 – Chuck: Let’s go to picks! 34:12 – Advertisement – Fresh Books! 41:31 – Cache Fly!

THU festival is a wonderful place filled with inspiring things; among them this year was this deep-dive panel discussion on the relationship between artists and their tools. The superstar participants include famed traditional-leaning Visual Artist Phil Hale, visionary Gnomon School Founder Alex Alvarez, and prestigious Hollywood Concept Artist and Production Designer Dylan Cole. Representing the advanced tools today’s creators use to build worlds are Lenovo’s Media & Entertainment Manager Rob Hoffmann, and Chaos Group’s Co-Founder and CEO Peter Mitev. Chris does a great job of steering the conversation and involving all his guests, and it covers everything from the relationship between traditional and digital art, the evolution of mediums from cave paintings to Zbrush, and how AI and accurate skin shaders are changing the role of the artist. You’ll find out about the development process behind V-Ray, and how building software and hardware has many similarities with creating art.
At Google’s Cloud Next ‘18 event in San Francisco earlier this year, a small team of CG artists and Google technicians took part in an audacious experiment: to create a Hollywood-quality animated short film in just three days. Fortunately, the team had a little help from Google’s Cloud Platform, a scalable and versatile system which gave them a huge amount of remote computing power. In this enlightening podcast, Google Cloud Platform’s Adrian Graham and CG artist D. Ryan Reeb talk about the various pieces of technology which made Robot Dance Party possible: Teradici’s PCoIP remote workstations, Bebop’s orchestration layer, and Zync’s queue manager, as well as Maya, V-Ray for Maya and After Effects. Adrian does a fantastic job of breaking down each component and explaining how it fits into Google Cloud’s slick infrastructure, while Ryan is a living testament to how it can save vital time on the front line of visual effects. Both also offer their thoughts on the future of cloud rendering, and how it will dramatically change the way the studios of tomorrow will be set up. Want to try rendering on the cloud? Chaos Group is currently offering free rendering credits for anyone who takes part in our Google-powered V-Ray Cloud beta. Try it now!
Andre Matos is something of a hero at Chaos Group. He's a proponent of V-Ray GPU and VRscans, which are part of the toolset he uses to create enormous eye-catching renders for sports car company Porsche. As a special guest at the Total Chaos conference in Sofia, he delivered a keynote speech, a masterclass on motor vehicle renders, and recorded this podcast with Chris. Andre and Chris share some subtle tricks of the trade which can make good car models look great; from the lighting to the positions of the wheels, the angle of the car, and the headlight set up. Andre also talks about his early life on the Azores islands, how he got started in CG, and the advantages of a GPU-based pipeline. If you've ever struggled to make your car renders or photographs pop, this podcast is for you.

Six years ago, Chaos Group developer Boris Simandoff had a dream: that cloud rendering could be as simple as clicking a button. Today, that dream is becoming a reality, with fast and easy cloud rendering seamlessly integrated into V-Ray for Rhino, Revit and SketchUp — and more products coming soon. In this podcast, Boris tells Chris how he and his team at Chaos Group overcame some of the headaches of cloud computing, such as security concerns and clunky interfaces. You'll find out how CPU vulnerabilities were discovered as a direct result of cloud computing, and how preemptible machines cut the costs of rendering on the cloud. Boris also talks about his vision for the future, including potentially accessing thousands of cores from a simple machine.
As the dust settles on 2017, one question lingers on everyone's minds: was Star Wars: The Last Jedi a good movie? The critics have embraced indie auteur Rian Johnson's continuation of the new Star Wars universe, but the response from audiences and internet nerds has ranged from ecstatic, to meh, to Kylo Ren-like levels of rage. To dissect this divisive movie, Chris is joined by Star Wars revisionist and podcast regular Dan Thron, Chaos Group's Communications Director David Tracy — and a bottle of Colorado's finest whisky. They talk about what makes the film work: the incredible visuals, the performances and chemistry, and the ways it wipes the slate clean and takes apart what Star Wars means for younger audiences. But they also highlight the film's negatives: the goofy humor, tonal inconsistencies, and Death Star-sized plot holes. It's an thought-provoking and increasingly drunk conversation which touches on Dan's arguments about the original trilogy, David's formative experiences with Darth Vader, and the future of both the Star Wars universe and colossal movie franchises. Whether you loved or hated The Last Jedi, this is a great way to spend two hours of 2018.
Summer 1993. Jurassic Park is about to be unleashed in theatres. Meanwhile, at the Rice School of Architecture in Houston, Texas, a young student named Chris Nichols is learning how to use AutoCAD, 3dstudio v2, and Wavefront. Overseeing Chris is Shisha van Horn, a paleontologist turned architecture student, then lecturer. Chris and Shisha are reunited for this trip down memory lane. Shisha talks about how she set up the school's first computer network, and cajoled Chris into creating 3dstudio online manuals using nothing more than notepad and HTML tags. It's a reminder of how much has changed. Most of Chris' portfolio from the time now fits on a single SD card, but in 1993 it would have filled a hard drive. The arch viz industry didn't exist. The department used a dye-sublimation printer which cost $6,300, Gopher and Mosaic were the only ways to look at web content, and Chris even built his own render farms so he could get his thesis done in time. It's also testament to the talent and energy Chris brought to the university, then the architecture and VFX industries, and now to Chaos Group. And it's nice to hear from Shisha, who was an instrumental and influential part of Chris' life and career.
Chaos Group has been involved in The Ningyo for about four years now, and it's finally come to fruition. The ambitious 27-minute film tells the story of Professor Marlowe, an Indiana Jones-esque cryptozoologist, as he hunts for the titular aquatic creature from Japanese folklore. In this podcast, director Miguel Ortega tells Lon and Chris about the trials and tribulations of making his movie. He and partner Tran Ma came up with the story, funded it on Kickstarter, turned their house into a film set, and learned VFX software as they went along. He talks about how the clever and occasionally risky ways they cut costs, but produced something so good that it even surprised the crew who worked on it. This is essential listening for behind the scenes geeks, and it shows how movie budgets can spiral out of control so quickly. Miguel also talks about the exciting future plans for The Ningyo, and his career. One to watch.
On this week's session, I'm joined by Lon Grohs from Chaos Group in Los Angeles. You probably know Lon from his days at Neoscape, but today he's an integral member of the Chaos Group executive team — overseeing company strategy, brand, and founder of the Chaos Group Labs. On this session, we focus mainly on the six degrees of freedom in VR as well as upcoming projects that are cooking up in the Chaos Group Labs. He'll be in attendance at the SOA Academy Day this weekend, 6-7 October 2017. Here is your chance to get to know a little more about Lon before then. Big News in VR We kick off this session with big news — Chaos Group just announced that they would be joining forces with Epic Games to make V-Ray for Unreal Engine. Lon says it's been on their radar for awhile, and now it's finally happening. The goal with this merger is to make the dream of seeing ArchViz projects in real-time a reality. Although a timeline isn't in place yet, they're working to create as many ways as possible to improve the AR and VR experience by building a bridge to the real-time engines their customers are using. Six Degrees of Freedom (6DoF) Lon also shares their plans to open up the doors to VR from three degrees to six degrees of freedom. Six degrees of freedom will give architects and their clients the ability to move around freely in their renderings. Lon calls this a “room scale” experience, and the most natural experience that you can have in a virtual space. He shares the technologies that will create the best VR experience, including Nozon and Lytro, and the differences between the two. Artist or Client — Who's Using VR? In my experience, VR is more user-friendly for the artist than it is for the client. When I asked Lon who should expect to have the most significant experience with these technologies, he told me it is for everyone. From the artists and their team to the client presentations, their goal is to create a technology that can easily be used throughout the entire project. Although still in the experimental phases of creating the six degrees of freedom in every VR experience, Lon and his partners at Chaos Group are definitely well on their way to figuring it all out. We discuss the role that architectural education had in Lon's career, upcoming projects, new technologies, and some of Lon's biggest ideas yet. A whole lot is coming down the pipeline at Chaos Group, and you can hear all about inside this session of The SpectRoom with Lon Grohs. Key Takeaways [02:30] Big News in real-time and VR [07:40] What does six degrees of freedom look and feel like? [11:18] Achieving the most natural experience you can have in a photorealistic space.

Visualization company ArcMedia has just reached its 15th birthday. To celebrate, Founder and Managing Director Brett Fisher and Creative Director Ben Bancroft joined Chris for a few beers at the D2 conference in Vienna. Naturally, Chaos Group's acquisition of Render Legion and Corona comes up, but Brett and Ben highlight an unexpected benefit of the move. They also talk about ArcMedia's beginnings in visual effects, and its subsequent switch to arch viz, interiors and even luxury yacht renders. It's a laid-back, freewheeling conversation which nonetheless highlights some important points about working with clients, getting repeat business, and how Phoenix is changing the way they work.
Paul Nicholls is a third of the team behind Factory Fifteen, a London-based directing collective and arch viz and production studio. From a background in architecture, Paul has made a name for himself in creating ambitious short and feature-length films, music videos and VR experiences. In this podcast, recorded at the D2 Conference in Vienna, Paul talks about how Factory Fifteen was formed, the numerous awards it's won for its groundbreaking projects, and how he uses Tiltbrush to sketch in virtual reality without any aches and pains. He also poses some pertinent technical and business questions about what Chaos Group's acquisition of Render Legion's Corona will mean for users. Paul finishes with a few hints as to the exciting design-driven direction Factory Fifteen will take in the future.
The d2 Conference has grown from a humble meeting of 85 people to an indispensable event for arch viz studios and artists around the world. This year's event was of particular significance; the industry's leading lights celebrated Chaos Group's acquisition of Render Legion and Corona Renderer. In this short but sweet podcast, Chris talks to Fabio Palvelli and Jason Bergeron, the Italian and American brains behind this influential Viennese convention. They talk about the inspiration which lead to the conference, the joy of helping artists make connections and pursue careers, and how they've seen arch viz evolve and branch out into other mediums. We'll see you in Vienna next year!
Chaos Group promised a big announcement at the D2 Conference in Vienna. Not only did they not disappoint, but they took the world by surprise. On Friday, August 25, they announced that Chaos Group has acquired Render Legion, the makers of the Corona renderer. Corona has become extremely popular in recent years, especially in the Architecture and ArchViz community. Just after the announcement, Chris sat down with Ondrej and Vlado, the respective brains that started Corona and V-Ray. We cover how this acquisition was not a choice made in haste and that it took over a year to happen. We also learn that Ondrej has great respect for Vlado which is why Render Legion approached Chaos Group first when they wanted to find a way to grow their company. At the same time, you'll hear Vlado's big respect for Ondrej and that their goal is to keep each renderer developed separately, as they have a different general philosophy.
One of the biggest and most well-received surprises at this year's SIGGRAPH was Epic Games' announcement that it's added V-Ray rendering to Unreal Engine. In this podcast, recorded at the conference, Chris sits down with Epic's Marc Petit and Ken Pimentel to discuss what this meeting of minds means. They talk about how the Unreal Engine has gone from a solid platform for game development to a multipurpose tool for photorealistic architecture and visual effects, as well as AI and autonomous vehicles. They also discuss how Chaos Group and Epic Games have similar, customer-focused business models, and how they're working together to help everyone create amazing imagery. It's a tantalizing peek into a future where the boundaries between realtime and ray-traced are becoming increasingly blurred.
Rendering is dead. Long live rendering. As computers become faster and more powerful, and 3D software becomes easier to use, rendering could be about to change dramatically. And it may even cease to exist as we know it today. In this podcast, Chris gazes into his crystal ball with Chaos Group's CCO Lon Grohs and Communications Director David Tracy. It's an animated discussion which raises some important questions about the mass adoption of 3D creative technology. Will we see a proliferation of deeply terrible CG? Or will artists be able to realize their visions more easily?
The Immersive Reality in Architecture conference, which took place in Venice earlier this month, focuses on the application of VR and AR in the world of visualization and design. This panel discussion, led by CGarchitect's Jeff Mottle, tackles the pros and cons of these emergent technologies. CG Labs' Chris Nichols, and Chaos Group's CCO Lon Grohs are among the guests, as well as Patricio Navarro (ArX Solutions), Luciana Carvalho Se (Realities Centre London), Dan Harper (Cityscape), Christiaan Klaassen (DBOX) and Scott DeWoody (Gensler). It's a candid chat about the ways architects use VR, the practicalities of programing experiences, and how consumers and companies such as Apple are shaping the future of the medium.
If you've seen Chaos Group's showreel, you'll be familiar with Unit Image's work. The Parisian visual effects studio has created entertaining and witty commercials for Peugeot, Cartier, and Canal Plus. As it was founded by gamers, it's also produced gritty trailers for AAA titles such as The Crew, The Division, and For Honor. Fresh from their presentation at FMX, Unit Image's slightly hungover Johanne Beaupied (Business Development and Production Management) and Dorian Marchesin (CG Supervisor) join Chris for this engaging podcast. Johanne's background lies in games, from playing Doom at age six to working at Ubisoft, which has given her a unique perspective on the industry. Dorian, meanwhile, studied engineering but became drawn in to the world of 3ds Max. His love of cars - and V-Ray - meant that working on some of Unit Image's productions has been a dream come true. Johanne and Dorian talk to Chris about how they get lose themselves in game universes both professionally and in their spare time, Unit Image's Scan Engine tech, and the French film industry.
The FMX digital arts festival in Stuttgart, Germany, forms a bustling backdrop for this live podcast. Host Chris is joined by Chaos Group's co-founder and CEO Vladimir "Vlado" Koylazov, and Dabarti's Tomasz Wyszolmirski, whose feedback has been instrumental in the development of V-Ray GPU. Vlado talks about how GPU computing has evolved, and reveals V-Ray's new game-changing hybrid GPU/CPU features. Then questions come thick and fast from an audience hungry for free V-Ray t-shirts. The subjects Vlado and Tomasz cover include adaptive lights, compatibility for Psyops' Cryptomatte, fur and memory limitations, cloud computing, and how game engines are influencing the development of V-Ray. As with all live our live podcasts, this is a particularly engaging and enjoyable listen. If you haven't already, now's a great time to subscribe to the podcast, and check out previous recordings.
Show Rundown: In this week’s show we review the 15th movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2 with friend of the show, and my better half, David Tracy from the Chaos Group. In our second segment, we talk about the state of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and answer the question, “Are franchise movies getting better?” And finally we end our show with what we’re dorking out about this week, including the MTV Movie & TV Awards and Edge Of Tomorrow 2. Topic 1: Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2 Review Even though it’s only the first week of May, the summer movie season has officially started with the release of “Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2,” the 15th movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which made $145 million this past weekend, pushing the Marvel Cinematic Universe past $11 billion. The misfits from the first “Guardians Of The Galaxy” return, including Chris Pratt as Peter Quill aka Star-Lord, Zoe Saldana as Gamora, Dave Bautista as Drax, and the voices of Bradley Cooper as Rocket Raccoon and Vin Diesel as Baby Groot. Michael Rooker as Yondu also returns, and we are introduced Mantis an empath who can feel people’s emotions played by Pom Klementieff and Ego The Celestial played by Kurt Russell. Joining us to talk about “Guardians” and the Marvel Cinematic Universe is David Tracy, who co-hosts my other podcast Old Movies, New Beer and works for Chaos Group, which creates the rendering software that is used in pretty much every TV show and movie you love, including “Game Of Thrones,” “The Walking Dead,” “Doctor Strange,” “Rogue One,” “Deadpool” and - of course - “The Spongebob Squarepants Movie.” Topic 2: The Marvel MCU and Are Franchise Movies Getting Better? The state of the Marvel MCU and the wider world of franchise filmmaking, all based on some Dorking Out Show research Smith did, which can be found on our Facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/dorkingoutshow/photos/a.1832239517003995.1073741828.1808733706021243/2000617333499545/?type=3&theater and our twitter page here: https://twitter.com/dorkingoutshow/status/860921992718843904 What We’re Dorking Out About This Week: Did you know that MTV Movie Awards are now the MTV Movie & TV Awards?

Show Rundown: In this week’s episode, we review Disney’s live action remake of “Beauty & The Beast,” which made $170 million this weekend at the box office. David Tracy, the biggest Disney fan I know and my handsome better half and co-host of my other podcast Old Movies, New Beer, will BE OUR GUEST to talk about. In our second segment, David sticks around to chat about FX’s new anthology series “Feud: Bette & Joan.” And we will end our show with what we are dorking out about this week. Topic 1: Beauty & The Beast Review It’s a tale as old as time. A song as old as rhyme. It’s “Beauty & The Beast,” the latest Disney live-action remake along the lines of “Alice In Wonderland,” “The Jungle Book” and “Cinderella.” Directed by Bill Condon, who we will like to remember directed Dreamgirls and Gods & Monsters, but he also directed two Twilight movies, and starring Emma Watson as Belle and Dan Stevens as The Beast, Luke Evans as Gaston, Josh Gad as LeFou, with voices by Ewan McGregor, Sir Ian McKellen, Emma Thompson, Audra McDonald and Stanley Tucci. If you don’t know what Beauty & The Beast is about, then you’re probably not listening to this podcast, so … joining us for to talk about “Beauty & The Beast” is the biggest Disney fan I know and the Beauty to my Beast, David Tracy, who co-hosts my other podcast Old Movies, New Beer and works for Chaos Group, which creates the rendering software that is used in pretty much every TV show and movie you love, including “Game Of Thrones,” “The Walking Dead,” “Doctor Strange,” “Rogue One,” “Deadpool” and - of course - “The Spongebob Squarepants Movie.” Thank you for joining us, David. Topic 2: Feud: Bette & Joan on FX Last year, Ryan Murphy unleashed on the world The People vs. OJ Simpson: American Crime, one of the guilty and non-guilty TV viewing pleasures of 2016. Spring 2017 arrives with his latest event mini-series, Feud, starring Jessica Lange as Joan Crawford and Susan Sarandon as Bette Davis and retelling not only the decades long running gunfight these two legendary actresses had from the 1930s to the 1960s, but also the production of one of the most legendary (lots of legendary going on here, there’s a reason this story is being told 50 years later) horror films of all time: Whatever Happened to Baby Jane. Part a retelling of the end of Hollywood’s first Golden Age, part an examination of the knife fights women can get into with each other (this is almost a mirror version of Don Draper’s vices from Mad Men) and part a Ryan Murphy Wisconsin-class cheese fest, Feud is… well, Sonia, you tell me what you think Feud is. What We’re Dorking Out About This Week: Here Comes The Matrix Reboot http://birthmoviesdeath.com/2017/03/15/warner-bros.-is-planning-to-reboot-the-matrix Young Morpheus? http://www.darkhorizons.com/jordan-wanted-for-morpheus-in-new-matrix/ It’s Not The Matrix Rebooted: http://www.darkhorizons.com/the-matrix-reboot-writer-says-not-a-reboot/ Sonia’s Pick: Pure Cinema Podcast http://www.nowplayingnetwork.net/purecinema/ A weekly film podcast hosted by Brian Saur from the Rupert Pupkin Speaks film blog and Elric Kane from the Shock Waves Podcast featuring discussions of new films, old films, double features, cult movies, filmmakers and movie lists.

CG Labs is very proud of Vladimir "Vlado" Koylazov's recent Scientific and Technical Academy Award win. In fact, Chaos Group's co-founder had barely stepped off the red carpet when Chris and Lon wrangled him into the CG Garage recording studio for this special podcast. As well as talking about the sci-tech awards, Vlado goes into detail about what to expect from Chaos Group's latest 3.5 update to its flagship V-Ray for 3ds Max software. He talks about how adaptive lights can accelerate render times, the unexpected benefits of resumable rendering, and interactive VR output from within V-Ray. V-Ray for NUKE's imminent 3.5 update is also covered, including its new and improved volume grid, deep rendering, and denoiser. Finally, Vlado talks about the future of Chaos Group and the exciting roadmap for V-Ray products in 2017.
We first spoke to Craig Shimahara for Podcast #26, way back in June 2015. Since then, his film Masterless has debuted in Japan, and his architectural visualization practice Shimahara Illustration has gone from strength to strength. On his second visit to the Chaos recording suite, Craig talks about all things VR. A lot of questions come up: Where are we in Gartner's "hype cycle" of VR? How do VR experiences deal with scale? Is VR accessible to old, or short, or tall people? And how can we use it to tell stories? Chaos Group's CCO Lon Grohs adds his thoughts to this engaging listen, which highlights some of the frustrations of a medium which is still finding its feet.
Show Rundown: In this week’s episode, we prepare ourselves for Rogue One’s release and talk all things Star Wars with Will Wilkins, host of Netheads on the Smodcast Network. Then we get into the holiday spirit and review Office Christmas Party. Did we like the raunchy comedy or are we a couple of party poopers? Listen to find out. In our third segment, we know that Dorking Out is your favorite podcast, but what are our favorite podcasts? We share our top picks. And finally, David Tracy from the Chaos Group (and my better half) joins us for our Favorite Headlines segment to talk about the recent podcast he co-hosted in which Deadpool director Tim Miller broke his silence about dropping out of Deadpool 2. And we answer a listener question. We’ve got a lot to talk about so let’s get this podcast started.

Since November 2, 2014, Chris Nichols has interviewed 99 people for the CG Garage Podcast. Legendary photography Norman Seeff, architectural pioneer Art Gensler and director Wes Ball are among some of the big name guests who've graced the Chaos Group recording suite. But it's also served as a platform to discuss the deeper and more esoteric nature of just about anything CG related, as well as Chaos Group's new products. For this extra special live episode, Chris' guests are two of the hottest directors in Hollywood right now: Tim Miller ("Deadpool") and Joseph Kosinski ("TRON: Legacy," "Oblivion"). Both come from backgrounds in CGI and VFX, and they offer indispensable insights on how Hollywood works. Tim talks about the casualties of Blur Studio's Nerf battles, why he's not involved in "Deadpool 2," and the tantalizing animated sci-fi project he's working on next. In his podcast debut, Joe tells us about his rise from architectural imagery to cutting-edge blockbusters, and "Granite Mountain," his forthcoming feature film. You should tune in whether it's your first or your hundredth listen. And here's to another 100 podcasts!

Herzog & de Meuron is an architecture firm best known for its incredible glass and steel structures such as the Beijing National Stadium, The Perez Art Museum in Miami, and the Allianz Arena in Munich. The Swiss company has also dramatically repurposed existing space to create London's Tate Modern and Serpentine Gallery. But within Chaos Group, the company is more famous for its exhilarating and enthusiastic presentation on VR at the Shape to Fabrication event in London earlier this year. The presenters, Steffen Riegas and Mikolaj Bazaczek, marked an exhilarating finish to what had already been a great day. Of course, Herzog & de Meuron needs to stay on the cutting edge of technology to maintain its status as world-renowned architects, embracing a pipeline which includes 3ds Max, Sketchup and Rhino. In this podcast, which is every bit as enjoyable as their presentation, the team talks about an approach which involves everything from hand-cut cardboard models to a cutting edge pipeline including 3ds Max, Sketchup, Rhino - and V-Ray. Of course.
Stephen Parker, a software technical director at Chaos Group, talks about his history and how he got into computers, visual effects, digital humans, and more. We also talk about GTC 2016 and how AI and deep learning became the big focus at Nvidia.
While hanging out in Sofia, Chris decided sit down with Vlado to talk about what Chaos Group has been up to. Since we just released the VRscans service, we figured it was a good time to talk about it. We also talk about what is coming soon in the new service pack for V-Ray for Maya, as well as a host of other subjects including VR, realtime, and a video game he created in high school.
Curious as to what goes on in our Baltimore office? We talk to Brian Russell, Fernando Rentas, and Ted Vitale about the many ways that V-Ray has helped the design market: from Architecture design, building information modeling (BIM), industrial and product design, and more.
Emauele Lecchi, better known as Lele, is a new member of the Chaos Group team, but also a very long time V-Ray user. He was instrumental in the testing and benchmarking the newest service pack of V-Ray. This is such a huge update that Lele and Chris felt it deserved it's own podcast as the features are something that the users need to be aware of, since it could change their entire workflow.
With the podcast being just over a year old, it seemed like a good idea to take a look back at 2015 and see what had happened at Chaos Group. In this very casual chat, Lon, David, and Chris discuss a lot of the events we have attended, our Partners in Art, Chaos Group Labs project, Virtual Reality, the number of new products that we have released, as well as the many updated we have done. We hope that your 2015 was as fun and fulfilling as ours, and that everyone has a great 2016.
Blur Studio has always been a good friend of Chaos Group, but we were still lucky to be able to get Tim Miller, one of the founders of Blur, on the podcast. Tim is in the middle of directing the upcoming film Deadpool, due out in 2016. We talk about what it is like to get your first big feature film directing gig at age 50. We also have a very honest talk about running a studio like Blur, a very unique and creative place. Tim has a very different philosophy about how to run a studio which for the most part has been a huge advantage for them. But he is also honest about the mistakes he has made and owns up to them.
Dariush has recently joined Chaos Group as part of our education and documentation teams. I have known Dariush for a short time, but we quickly became great friends. He teaches at University of Southern California, and has written several books on Maya and Max. We talk about his past, how he stepped into teaching, and about the education in general.
Christopher Nichols has an impressive resume of working for many of the leading studios, from The Day After Tomorrow, I, Robot, Stealth, Tron: Legacy, Oblivion, Maleficent and The Girl with the Dragon Tatoo to photo real cars and photo real humans. Chris works with Chaos Group - the developers of V-Ray as one of the main people behind Chaos Group Labs, an experimental outpost based in Los Angeles. Where Chris has been involved with many high profile projects and pushing tech in new directions, being involved in projects ranging from the upcoming 'Construct' short film to photoreal human projects - there's such a wide range of subjects covered in this episode from getting a job in the industry to what it takes to make things photoreal, to more the backstory of so many really 'really' cool projects - check it out! http://www.allanmckay.com/28/ CG Garage Podcast: https://labs.chaosgroup.com/index.php/category/cg-garage-podcast/ Chaos Group Labs: https://labs.chaosgroup.com Pixel Perfect Article: http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2014/04/28/pixel-perfect-2 Construct Teaser: https://vimeo.com/90509568 Christopher Nichols website: http://www.redeyetales.com/ V-Ray in Real Life: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U9rgG2vPAvQ
Many of you probably know who Vlado is, but I bet many don't know Peter Mitev as well. Peter is the CEO of Chaos Group and started V-Ray with Vlado in 1997. For a long time, the whole company was just the two of them. Today, while there are offices around the world, he has tried to make sure that the company maintains the intimate feeling from their early days. He has a passion for experiencing different cultures, talking to all the different industries, and seeing what makes them different and what they have in common.
There are several people at Chaos Group that have actual Architecture Degrees. We figured that since three of us happen to be in LA at the same time, lets have a chat about it. Corey Rubadue is the Director of our Baltimore Office, Lon Grohs is our Chief Commercial Officer, and Christopher Nichols is the Creative Director. We chat about our history, we chat about how the art of architectural illustration. We chat about how CG changed things and now has become the norm. We even chat about the future.
This week we talk to Chaos Group's Christopher Nichols about the creation of a Digital Human League with key VFX industry members aimed at further research and discussion into synthetic human faces.
