The Ultimate Octane Masterclass

Unleash the power of Octane.
The first step toward professional rendering is chosing the right renderer. We’ve been using Octane Renderer® in production for several years now and highly recommend it if you want to lift your rendering game. However there has been a lack of training available for Octane … until now.
This course includes both The Octane Materials Masterclass and The Octane Lighting and Rendering Masterclass. You can also purchase these seperatly. Details here.
Here’s what we cover in the course...
01. Materials

02. Shader nodes
Get to know your shader nodes.
We’ll cover every Octane node to create your shaders and materials. We’ll see examples of what each node does and how to use them in your workflow.
03. Material Projects
Prodedural shaders step-by-step.
We’ll build materials together and share loads of tips on how to get great looking shaders and physically accurate results. All Project Files are included.

Let there be light.
Often overlooked is the importance of lighting. We take a look at each and every option available to us in Octane. Time to start lighting like a boss!
05. Camera

There’s a lot more to it than just slapping in a camera. Let’s go through the all the different camera modes and effects so you can become a true CG Cinematographer.

This training will be updated with every new release of the octane plugin, so this will be the only course you’ll ever need on the subject.

A fantastic course all around.
I've been trying to wrap my head around the material side of things within Octane for sometime now, the variety of nodes, material types, etc... and am so happy I took the plunge and signed up for the course. I now have a much more solid knowledge base within Octane and would recommend this course to anyone.

Great training!
The level of details is amazing and the fact to be able to come back at it whenever you want is so helpful. Even though I was using Octane for a month
I learned a lot. Vouch !

Loved this course.
Clear concise details on each aspect of the octane materials makes it easy to refer back to whenever you need a refresh. The tutorials for specific material creation towards the end of the course are a great way to tie all the learning together.
