MARI 是个可以处理高复杂度的创意纹理绘制工具。原创于 Weta Digital 制作公司，为他们的纹理部门在制作 DISTRICT 9 第九区、THE LOVELY BONES 苏西的世界、和 AVATAR 阿凡达 时，因应极度复杂、细腻的纹理设计需求而研发的。

MARI 拥有超越许多二维绘图系统的创意工具组，让艺术家们能专注于绘制工作。它具有互动迅速又流畅的用户界面，您可以直接在模型上绘制纹理，并能实时看到效果。不但省时，更将纹理绘制工作带到前所未见的境界。

MARI 具有无以伦比的庞大和巨量纹理处理功能，发挥极度细腻的纹理效果。

速度

成果立即展现，降低修改的需求，省时又省钱。告别以往绘制、渲染、审查、修改的循环程序。一个模型的所有纹理皆能同时载入 MARI，省去分割模型的麻烦。

绘制

首屈一指的创意绘图工具，专注于艺术家们的需求。MARI 经过极度生产压力历练而生的绘笔引擎，将艺术家从传统的限制中解放出来，容许他们自然的在模型上作业。

境内效果

就视觉特效工作而言，镜头内的整合效果才是最重要的。一个镜头中的模型在背景前，从任何角度所呈现的效果都非常重要。MARI 允许艺术家在镜头内检视效果，并可直接在模型上绘制适当的纹理。

纹理变化

纹理在不同的时间点可能需要改变，例如脸红的少女、刮伤凹陷的盔甲等，纹理的变化是做真实效果时很重要的一环。在 MARI 里您能逐格绘制纹理。

工作流程<

MARI 能有效的与复杂的工作流程整合，发挥更强劲的功效。它在界面、几何模型、相机、和着色各方面都采用了开放和可扩展式的架构，同时支援色彩管理，和打光、纹理等的变化。输入和输出则在背后进行。

用户界面

一个清晰、直观的用户界面允许艺术家把重点放在重要的地方。可客制的用户工具栏让他们有效的安排自己的工作空间。可客制的实时三维着色器更让他们能够即时检视工作成果。

'Mari' 是什么意思？

MARI 取自 Swahili 斯瓦希里文的 "maridadi"，意思是"美丽"，并有"有用"的涵意。

MARI is the most fluid and natural way to paint in 3D. It makes life simple for artists by allowing them to paint directly onto 3D models with more time for painting and less time managing technical issues.

Painting

MARI’s cutting-edge paint tools give you the freedom and flexibility to create truly stunning effects and detail, with the added advantage of full triplanar projection for faster scene set-up.

Advanced layering

The full power of a layer-based workflow along with adjustments, procedurals and advanced masking means that you can paint faster and with greater control than ever before with MARI. Procedural layers make it easy to create the look you want, seamlessly blending procedural and painted detail with the same toolkit. A powerful procedural engine is built into the heart of the layer stack, offering fluid, GPU-accelerated real-time procedural noises, patterns, projections and more.

Realistic interactive preview

With MARI, you can create normal maps on the fly from bump maps, making it simpler and easier to generate and manipulate textures. Shadow support lets you cast real-time shadows on objects from multiple light sources and provides a customisable real-time 3D shader preview for things like specular highlights, displacement preview via bump mapping and colour correction. MARI also allows you to import multiple camera moves through which to view your model.

Geometry handling

MARI handles animated geometry and animated textures with ease, making it possible to isolate, select, mask and hide geometry per patch and face. Being able to have overlapping UVs means you can re-use the same texture across 3D models in any shared UV space, as well as handling multiple objects, versions and instances, with or without baked animation.

Color management

With OpenColorIO (OCIO), the open source color management solution from Sony Picture Imageworks, you can handle color transforms and image display across multiple applications by setting up a single profile to provide consistent colors across the board. A key tool in simplifying the color management process, OCIO is suitable for both visual effects work and animated features and is specifically geared towards post-production work.
