ASSIGNMENTS
Overview
In this assignment, you'll start taking your shading skills to the next level by understanding Ambient Occlusion (AO) at a deeper level.
Materials Needed
- The project image.
- A red colored pencil, or a digital painting application.
Steps
- Download the project file and A) print it out or B) open it in your preferred digital painting application.
- Assuming diffuse light from the sky, indicate in red where you think the occlusion shadows are. Lighter red = less occlusion, darker red = more occlusion.
- When you’re done, check the solutions included in the ZIP file. It contains: A 2D solution with ambient occlusion intensity in red. A 3D render to show you where occlusion occurs and better understand the reasoning behind the red areas in the 2D solution.
Duration
This project should take 15–30 minutes to complete.
Notes
This assignment has evolved over the years, so student submissions below might vary.
Comparing my marks on the assignment with the solution I see some slight differences especially on image 1,2 and 4
