Look Development

I render out two version of the butter, one has part of the butter slide down, and one has partially butter melt.

For the texture, I have used the point wrangle node to make the color gradually change from yellow to transparent. I found out that the basicliquid cannot recognize the color overwrite, so I use the material X inside Karma.

I rename the alpha to bob, then put it into MTLX USD Primvar Reader, so the material X will recognize the color and alpha.

I use one spot light as the main light source, one spot light as fill light and one area light as the back light. I add some color to the second spot light to make the scene more orange. Then I turn the camera up a little and increase the primary sample up to 500 in order to get rid of noise. 

Final Result

I rendered out two versions of the melting butter: in one, some butter remains on the corn, and in the other, part of the butter slides down to the ground.

Update new render with clean edge and new texture on butter after professor Fowler's feedback
