KINDERGARTEN ON MIQUELSTRASSE, BERLIN, GERMANY

Hi! I’d like to show you a quick job I did some time ago. The task was to make some nice, warm images for the new kindergarten, created in the private house on the calm Berlin’s street.

This is also one of my first attempts at the Matte Painting technique for the foreground plan of the shot and I’m not going to lie – I nailed it!

The scene is lit by ‘PGSkies 1256’ hdri map and with two 5000K kelvin temperature suns, in the same direction and angle. One is smaller in size and stronger – to light the scene and give sharp shadows, and the second is larger in size and less intense – to scatter and soften the shadows. I saw this method of combining light sources on the render.camp YT channel for lighting interior scenes, but it works well for exteriors too!

As for the other details, I can tell you, the road is created with the microdisplacement modifier, but the stone wall and the sidewalk are displaced using the parallax method.
