V-Ray Station Challenge

竞赛主题

Shadow and Light (光与影)

主题说明

Shadow and Light , always change with each other all the time. They are elusive, but they are also the makers of ” frame”. Whether in real life or in a 3D scene, they are an indispensable part. “Structure creates light,” architect Louis Kahn once said, and light is sometimes a “building material.”
The image of Shadow and Light often seem to convey the story that the creator wants to tell to the world. So how does light resonate with emotion and perception in a scene? We hope that you can tell your own story through ” Shadow and Light”.

光与影，时刻相随又时刻变化。他们难以捉摸，但却又是“画面”的构成者。无论在现实生活中、亦或是三维场景中，他们都是必不可少的一部分。建筑师路易斯康曾说过：“结构创造了光”，而光有时候又是一种“建筑材料”。光与影的画面，往往又似乎在向世人传递着创作者想要诉说的故事。那么在场景中，光和情绪、感知如何产生共鸣？我们希望你能通过光与影，诉说出你的故事。
