What is the EV Express addon?
EV Express is an add-on that speeds up tremendously the workflow setting up a scene in EEVEE to showcase your model. No more hassle adjust all the render settings, shadows, contact shadows, probes, etc. Per April 15 you can use the EV Express add-on also for Cycles, see FAQ.

How does EV Express speed up the workflow?
The core: Probably you know that when want to render quickly out your model, you need lights, background and floor, irradiance volume probe, and reflection probe. For a quick job, there are too many settings to adjust. You need to line up the irradiance volume, change settings, change light settings, etc. Now with the EV Express, you can skip all that. Just click on one of the 32 thumbnails and it will place 11 lights in the scene, a backdrop, and probes. The lights consist of two light rigs. And the backdrop is the parent for the irradiance volume and the probes. Everything (render, light, probes) have already the best setting known. Additionally in the core of EV Express, a global shader is included, more about that later.

But the EV Express addon offers even more. Take a look at the diagram below.

EV Express overview

Next are the compositing nodes. This is a separate addon you get, that is included in the EV Express download. These are 9 useful node-groups you can use in the compositor. You don’t need to append them. Instead, a press on a button will make these nodes available with Shift+A. Working with these node groups save you time because you don’t need to arrange nodes one by one yourself. See it as building blocks. You can just plug them in. More explanation of the node-groups is in the documentation.

Then, I implemented some looks in Color-management. As you know we don’t have many looks in Color-management. Only low, high, medium-high, very high contrast, etc. So we have now 8 more looks. See the last update on how you get this to work.

Features:

Add two light rigs with the best settings known so far for shadow, contact shadow, etc.
All lights are adjustable in the EV Express (color, size).
Colour presets for lights inspired by HDRI’s from Greg Zaal. Of course, it’s not possible to simulate HDRI’s with lights in EEVEE but it is pretty handy to have some presets that are recognizable.
Add volumetrics. Ready to render, so no hassle to set up material (or find the material) but just press two buttons. Adjust the color of volume.
Add keying-set for all the settings for one of the light-rigs. This means that you can key-frame the rig and with that, you key-frame its colors, position, scale, and focus. Normally you have to key-frame each color for each light for example. now you can do it with one click.
Settings related to the camera are normally spread out across several places like Lock to View, DOF, Focal Length, and with one button you place an empty for the Depth of Field. The depth of field with be automagically enabled. How convenient! I love it.
The global shader is now included (per the 12 April update). This was a separate addon but I merged it in the EV Express addon. See the global shader as a shader for the whole scene but has a color scheme. With one button-click you can change the color scheme. I stole these color combinations from movies.
Add nine useful Node-groups in the compositor. There are common ones like vignette but also some unique node-groups like Logo-overlay and Normal-FX.
Eight looks in Color Management.
Thirty-two big thumbnails. When clicking on one of them it will place lights, probes, smoke (if it’s included in the preset), and backdrop.

The EEVEE Production Suite is EV Express its big brother; A reliable EEVEE environment that makes you ready to produce media for the internet, concept design, and professional previews. It’s a complete production package for EEVEE that includes also a library of 165 procedural materials, 46 node groups to build your own material, and more. Check out the EEVEE Production Suite on Blender Market.

The story of the EV Express addon
It started with EEVEE, our real-time render engine in Blender. We were all happy to have this real-time render engine, but the community struggled to get things right. Many had and still have problems with light leaks, and not having the knowledge on how to work with probes, etc. One important thing is that HDRI doesn’t cast shadows! Still, up to now, I notice that many don’t realize this. Because we can’t use HDRI’s (when baking) in EEVEE, we need to use lights. And there we had loads of questions (and still) about how to use the light settings, how to use settings for the probes and how to place them.

Now, while EEVEE is a real-time engine, it is a big hassle to set up your lights and probes. Therefore I decided to make my life easier because I knew I would make a lot of use of the EEVEE render engine in the future. Even with my three GTX 1080 TI video cards, I prefer to get the best out of the EEVEE engine, because it is as good as noise-free and you the real-time feedback you get with EEVEE makes it more productive. So EV Express started as an addon with 1 simple light rig and probes parented to a backdrop.

Update 22 May 2022
