In this quick Maya tutorial we gonna create ambient occlusion pass in Arnold and Maya 2018, this will be a quick tutorial we will discuss a little theory of why we use ambient occlusion in 3d and how this AO pass is not natural phenomena and doesn’t exist in nature.

We will start the tutorial by looking at reference images and discuss natural light and shadows and understand contact shadows and how ambient occlusion pass can help us recreate these contact shadows that otherwise the retrace shadows will not be able to provide, reference will help us a lot to understand the indirect shadows that caused by the sun and we will work to recreate that effect in 3d using Arnold and Maya 2018.
