The following tutorials cover a question I have been asked many times over the years. I decided it was about time to document how I align views and renderings with real photographs. Because I use Lumion for many of my renderings I decided to make two tutorials. One will cover aligning a Revit 3D view with a photograph. The other will cover aligning a Lumion camera view with a photograph.
Keep reading to see both tutorials and processes...
I bet many of you reading those first two statements are nodding your heads. Those who aren’t, create a new camera view in Revit right now without applying any templates. Yeah, pretty ugly right? Like you, I have always been frustrated with the un-attractiveness of “default” Revit.
The good news is you don’t have to live with “default” Revit. There are lots of features and settings that can make Revit sexy.
The bad news? No one knows about them!
Between teaching at a university, working for a large construction firm, and running this blog for the last ten years I have seen my fair share of Revit projects and presentations. The quality of presentation materials (plans, sections, elevations, renderings, diagrams, etc..) coming from these models is inconsistent to say the least. Therefore, Revit still has a reputation in many corners of our industry for “looking bad”.
Well, needles to say, it is about time for a major update. Revit has added some great new features for presentation techniques, real-time software has come a long way (Enscape3D, Lumion, etc…). Therefore, this year I am bringing sexy back to BIM. In order to do so, I plan on taking Volume 1 down to work on the completely new version this summer.
On the day I am writing this post, 766 readers have downloaded and completed BIM After Dark - Volume 1. Also crazy, I know!
I wanted to make sure anyone who has been on the fence about Volume 1 had a chance to get the original version before I take it offline, and at a discount.
I plan on shutting down the Volume 1 cart and sales page this Friday, June 22nd, 2018 at 8 PM (EST).
Keep reading to see why you should download BIM After Dark - Volume 1 today (before it is gone!)...
