Modelling and Rendering a pen in Renderman

First project using Python API for RenderManProServer. The aim is to create a believable pen geometry and render it with proper shading and lighting.

Repository Structure

• Images: all the .tx texture images used to create the scene
• Shaders: shaders used in the project

Requirements

Tested on: RenderManProServer (python engine 2.7).

Execute

• Commands for compiling shaders

  • oslc *.osl: will compile the new generation shaders.
  • shader *.sl: will compile the old .sl shaders.

• Open RenderMan visualization program it

• Execute the scene.py script by typing in the terminal:

  • ./scene.py: it executes the python scripts and produces the RIB file
  • render scene.rib: it will send and start rendering the image in the previously opened it program.
