Description:

///Update! v2.0
Improved reflections
Depth of Field Control
Updated Lighting
Note: The scene included renders like the first preview image. The rest are made my changing the color of the backdrop and the lights.
Happy Blendering!

Edited July 19, 2014Thanks! Yep, always nice to have something like this one hand so that you don't have to redo it every time you make something.

Edited August 12, 2014This is pretty much what I use except my lamps are just flat planes with the emission material but no black. Is there any reason for the black and the shape of the emitters? And is the black material only on the backs of your lamps?
Thanks.
Phil.

Written August 12, 2014The black is there so that you don't get any bounce lighting from the back of the plane. Its not really needed in this setup but in certain scenes it can help. :)

Written August 13, 2014Actually, that's a good idea. Haven't thought on that... I used materials with different look for front and back faces before, but I never tried to use that on emitter planes to reduce bounce lighting. Good idea! (well, I said that in the beginning, didn't I? g)

Written August 13, 2014I'm noticing it seems fast. I like the way its rendering the SSS skin tone as well.

Written August 13, 2014Oh, one alibi - It sort of freezes all other aspects of blender while its rendering. Cant access any windows or even shut the render down. Small point, but the look is ... Great!

Written August 13, 2014That is for speeding up Render times. There is a lock icon in the render panel. It saves memory which speeds up the render. And you can still cancel the render via the ESC key.
