Create Fog for CGI Renders in After Effects!

Fog and atmosphere always look awesome, but rendering them is still a pain. Noise, trouble with lights and lack of control (and of course slow rendering speeds) make us dread rendering fog scenes. Our approach is to add fog in post-production as often as possible using a depth pass.

This trick is cheap and easy! You can customize and make any adjustments without being stuck with rendered fog. Check out our tutorial here

Our environment maps are up to 8K in resolution, meaning you’ll have as much detail as you’ll ever need to render out perfectly crisp shadows and sharp reflections. Our collection features strobes, soft lighting, intense lighting and other various setups for every scenario you may face.

We’ve ensured that our images have a true high dynamic range so that you’ll be able to adjust the exposure in a nearly infinite range of values and still maintain consistent quality.

These are compatible with almost every rendering engine including Vray, Octane and Redshift.

HDRI imagery is used widely in the CG industry to help create photorealistic 3D renders. While standard 8-bit images can contain 256 different values for each colour channel, 32-bit imagery can contain 16,777,216! This huge leap allows our HDRI imageries data to contain the difference in light intensities between the darkest and brightest part of our studio environment maps.
