In brief: Jamie Cardoso presented a course on 3D lighting with 3ds Max, V-Ray and Photoshop.
Course structure: The three-part programme began with lighting and rendering vehicles. Part two addressed exterior lighting for both daytime and night-time scenes, while part three focused on realistically lighting interiors. The course comprised 18 lessons with an estimated running time of about seven hours.
Archived availability: Wingfox listed the course at a regular price of US$49, discounted to US$19 when the original report was written. The archived course page was available from Wingfox.
Digital Production readers may also know Cardoso from his book on V-Ray 5 for 3ds Max 2020, a SubSpline tutorial, and articles about Verge3D and Q-Proxies.
