# Advanced Render

Welcome to Advanced Render (AR). AR offers numerous special rendering effects (the subordinate pages contain a reference to the Cinema 4D version in which they are contained) such as:

- Subsurface Scattering
- Physical Renderer
- Photon Caustics
- CineMan
- Terrain Mask
- Depth of Field
- Highlights
- Glow
- Vector Motion Blur
- Sub-polygon Displacement
- Color Mapping
- Physical Sky
- PyroCluster
- Global Illumination (GI)
- Connectivity to RenderMan-compatible render engines
- and more …

These effects can primarily be found in the **Render Settings** menu but can also be accessed via a material channel's channel shader, via 3D shaders or in the form of a general material property.
