3D ANIMATION STUDIES

Getting Thumbnail Glass Cube Caustics
Study of a simple glass cube with rounded edges and the affect on the caustics calculations. In setting this up I've noticed that caustics through flat surfaces leaves much to be desired. I had to also use a relatively high caustics setting to get a refractive caustic that wasn't noisy and inaccurate under animation and the still image. - Chad C. Yates 2001
