A Quick Look At Arnold’s Light Mixer Imager

Lee Griggs runs through working with the new Light Mixer in Arnold 6.2.

Arnold 6.2 adds support for OpenColorIO 2 and a bunch of other things. It also added a bunch of new Imagers, and while Imagers looked to be mostly post rendering effects initially, the update shows that they are a lot more. Now you can do Denoising as an imager, and there is a new Light Mixer Imager too.

Arnold rendering specialist Lee Griggs shows us how to use the new Light Mixer imager in the latest Arnold release. Light Mixer can adjust the contribution of light to one AOV. The balance or mix of those lights can be adjusted using a set of sliders or color sliders.
