Setting up an Indoor Scene using Mental Ray (www.tylertreat.net)
This tutorial will walk you through the basics of setting up an indoor scene and properly lighting it and rendering it with Mental Ray. Watch the render times on this one if planning on animating, this render took 15 minutes for one frame at 640*480 on my laptop which would make your 20 second project at 24fps take 5 days to render ;)
