Re: What is the most important skill for architectural visualization?
It is not the be and end all to have an architectural degree drafting course. It is however vitally important to be able to read a plan, elevation etc.
If you want to get into the design end of 3D then it will be a good idea to have that behind you. If you want to get into the "high-end" photorealistic stuff, I would say you would be better off doing a photography/ cinemaphotograph course instead.
Any one can learn how to model, but there are very few who know how to light and render a scene. True Rendering skills are in great shortage in this industry.
It has been the artistic eye that has landed me jobs around the world and not once has the lack of drafting/architectural degree lost me a job.
