Open Shading Language (OSL) is a shading language developed by Sony Pictures Imageworks , a Canadian visual effects and computer animation studio headquartered in Vancouver , British Columbia and Montreal , Quebec , with an additional office on the Sony Pictures Studios lot in Culver City, California , a unit of Sony Pictures Entertainment 's Motion Picture Group , which through an intermediate holding company called Sony Film Holding Inc., it is operated as a subsidiary of Sony Entertainment Inc. , which is itself a subsidiary of the Japanese multinational technology and media conglomerate Sony Group Corporation , for use in its Arnold Renderer . It is also supported by Illumination Research's 3Delight renderer, Otoy's Octane Render , V-Ray 3, Redshift (from April 2021), and the Cycles render engine in Blender (starting with Blender 2.65). OSL's surface and volume shaders define how surfaces or volumes scatter light in a way that allows for importance sampling ; thus, it is well suited for physically based renderers that support ray tracing and global illumination .
