Lesson 06, our first model

In this lesson I introduce a few new concepts and build our first model, a jet engine.




I demonstrate the torus (doughnut), a triangle, and how to scale shapes.  Also I demonstrate how to use a loop to create multiple objects (the "while" loop), declare variables and showed that you can have multiple light sources.

Lesson 05, background, plane and colour multiplication

In this video I introduce a few new things, including, how-to comment code so that it's not part of a scene, the background command and the plan command

Lesson 04, include files, translate, interaction of translate and rotate

In this video, I show you how to create your first "include" file.  Also introduce the "translate" command and show how rotate and translate interact.

Lesson 03, cylinder, box and rotate

In this video I present two new basic shapes, the cyclinder, the box and I introduce the rotate directive.

Lesson 02, basics of 3D vectors

In this video you get a glimpse of of 3D vectors  ( <0,0,0> ) work within POV-Ray.

Lesson 01, your very first scene

In this video I show you some of the things that POV-Ray can do and then take you through your very first scene.
