It's always interesting to see what happens after a file or files have been delivered to a client. For the most part, they usually degerade at printing or some other level. Here is a flyover that the clients "expert" webmasters have popped into their website at such a low resolution that you have no idea what you are looking at. Too bad. And they took out the sound also. Oh, well. Just another day at the office.

Well, yes. Meet the pros.

Our best so far was when the client's inhouse photoshop gurus peremptorily changed the color of the sky in our renderings to match the blue to the company's logo, and that logo was like rgb 0,0,255. You can imagine the look on our faces when we saw the published material.

The areial could have used a little haze though.

I'm sure if you'd known this at the start you could have saved a lot of render time?

Ohhh boy i know that feeling so damn well....sacrificing your live for a few months and discussing about "haptics" and the "feel of the surfaces" just to have it flash compressed to a bunch of funny-coloured pixelblocks at 10fps *sigh* You got my sympathy

The aerial was done in my pre-vray days, afew years ago. I look back on it and it was ok for the time...but now, with vray here, it would have shined using vray sun and vray sky.
