What Reviewers Are Saying
McKay is quoted in Computer Graphics World magazine: August 2008
"In the 3D workflow, instead of just breaking down an image to its RGB or CMYK color values, we actually have to look at the exact way light interacts with the product," says McKay Hawkes, a Digital Effects Artist at Pixelbox in San Francisco, who specializes in hi-end digital imaging and animation for marketing, advertising and interactive campaigns.
"We need to closely observe and replicate things like diffusion, spectrality, reflection, fresnel, index refraction, subsurface scattering, absorption distance, and transparency to create convincing and accurate photorealistic qualities," Hawkes continues. "This is before we even get into bump and displacement mapping for textures and other various details. It can be a very challenging process, but the rewards are great as it blows the door wide open for creative potential and improved workflows."
