About the video: Playing with the nodes
Overview
“The time has come to get a little more complicated, and in this lesson we will learn how to connect nodes to create more advanced materials. These tools can be very powerful and give very interesting results, but be patient and take your time to understand their operation well.”
In this video lesson Francisco Cabezas addresses the topic: Playing with the nodes, which is part of the Domestika online course: Course 4: Materials, Cameras, and Lighting with OctaneRender. Bring your project to life by adding lights, cameras, and materials.

To do this, to make it work better, I'm going to remove the Mesh Generator, well, remove it, I'm going to hide it, both in the viewer, and in the render and I'm going to create a plane.
