Jewellery Rendering
Jewellery is difficult, specially in Blender which doesn’t handle caustics well. I had to render these in 2view layers, light the stone using masked indirect lighting, and later readjust all lighting & colors in composition, had to add a fake glare light to emulate “Caustic shadow”. Anyone here with expertise in jewellery rendering? here is the figma for this project(I use figma as a replacement for PureRef because Figma links can be shared and edited by team also): https://www.figma.com/file/7XNROyymM4IJbYeVQhtwPD?locale=en&type=design

I'm in the middle of creating a video for clients that don't realize the strenghts and possibilities of cgi over photography or other conventional media for their products. Can you comment down below what are the biggest strenghts of cgi according to you? I'm interested to see if i forgot something 💪🏼😁 Thank you 😊

@Jonathan McCoy this was helpful. You have been outreaching clients using this data? How are the results?
KPI for 3D Artists
How exactly do we measure how a 3D animation helps in business. What are the KPIs for it? Because if i know the KPI. I can measure the impact of the video, and that is what eventually helps the business. Do you people have charted this out? Because how can i price only the WOW FACTOR. The wow factor has no business value. Why should i pay 2-3k for a wow factor animation.

@Pedro Gajardo but the clarity then becomes a matter of marketing and ads, no? Instead of the video itself? Or it plays an even shorter role in video retention (sometimes we do pause and watch actual ads because they are made so well)
If you are making 4k/month
Those who are already making atleast usd 3-4k/month, are you doing everything on your own? Or do you outsource regularly too, developing juniors and raising them from bottom up, for longterm growth and team-building?

I’m into tech from childhood like most of you people. But i landed into medical school, which i just graduated this year. I just happened to land on blender, when 2.7v was the latest, in 2017. i don’t know how and why, incidentally, and kept learning it with aim of making a Samsung TV commercial. After 1 year of on and off portfolio building, i started my freelance journey in end of my 1st year med school. I have for the 90% of time, worked only through Upwork. I left all freelance for 2 full years in between, and only now, in April 2025, resumed again, picked back my Upwork profile from 0 to Top Rated, and regained a consistent stream of minimum 500$/month, reaching to 3-4k max once in June. 3 months ago I hired my first full time junior artist, and this month I got him a new system, RTX 3080. My problem: Unable to work myself on 3D projects, not able to give much time to it, as I’ve to study. My aim right now: To scale by delegation+outsource. Get consistent work instead of 1-off projects. Scale massively, without compromising on my medical studies. Personally shifting more towards sales rather than operations. For all this, i need guidance, alot of it. Https://behance.net/shaykhqasim
