Adobe Substance 3D Stager is a brand-new 3D scene design and rendering tool for designers and professional 3D artists, developed by Allegorithmic in 2003 and acquired by Adobe Systems in 2019. It uses real-time 3D virtualization and high-quality rendering technology to create and assemble realistic 3D scenes.
As part of Adobe's Substance 3D Collection (the other 3 are: Substance 3D Painter, Substance 3D Designer, and Substance 3D Sampler), Adobe Substance 3D Stager was rebuilt from Adobe Dimension, allows creators to easily arrange 3D models, materials, lighting environments, and cameras in 3D scenes and generate stunning virtual photos and renderings.
With Adobe Substance 3D Stager, you can take full advantage of the ecosystem of Creative Cloud to import elements from Modeler, Painter, Designer, and Sampler, edit images in Illustrator and Photoshop and view the changes immediately in Stager, and enhance your lighting using the ambient light editor or add physical 3D lights to your scenes for advanced lighting design.
Adobe Substance 3D Stager includes physics-based layout tools, off-the-shelf studio lighting equipment, and a Vulkan based renderer that is capable of hardware-accelerated ray tracing. In addition, it also comes with the Substance 3D assets library, which includes tens of thousands of 3D models, materials and lighting environments with customizable parameters, providing artists with a wealth of resources, and meeting the creative needs of multiple industries.
