Covering the role of Lead Visualizer I was called to refresh the comunication and visual aproach of the practise. I introduced the use of V-ray for 3D Max, more interactive visuals usin Adobe Flash and now investigating the potentials of Unreal, a real time render engine (https://www.unrealengine.com/blog). Here I’m also supporting the studio in any 3D modeling issue, performing light analisis, light fixtures positioning in Revit linked to Grasshopper. Learning how to be a Lighting Designers running the full phases of Norwich Cathedral project. What you will see in this chapter more than just samples are a collection of visual techniques. As consultant of Architects we recieve very different kind of information from them so each project require a custom solution.
