Nomeradona Mixed media approach_SketchUp, Vray and Photoshop

Here is a tutorial on how to use the different styles in Sketchup and merging them with rendered image in Photoshop thus creating a what we called "digital mixed media"

Although most of the work is in Photoshop, but one of the main aim here is how to explore the different styles in Photoshop.

In sketchup all you need to do is to export the image with style applied. In this tutorial, i will merge it with a rendered image. The good thing in SU is you can save camera scene.

So here are the two images openned in Photoshop.






the second technique is not using blending modes but rather masking some part of the image to reveal the image below.

1. Add mask on the top layer.



Then using gradient apply gradient (black to transparent) to top image. Now its up to you now which area you want to reveal.

  2. just export the 2d image. If the viewport and render does not sync, then the problem is how to sync the rendering engine with the sketchup viewport. what rendering plugin are you using?
