Level up your 3D lighting skills with this step-by-step guide for setting up cinematic lighting in Blender featuring over 9 hours of tutorials and a night lighting workflow.
Ever felt like a scene looks too CG or lifeless? Do you feel like you spend much more time on modeling than setting up the lighting when it's actually what makes everything come together? It may look like some successful artists just intuitively know what to do and naturally have the 'eye', but whether it's conscious or not, they will be using a kind of to-do list for where to place the lights, how to set the right levels, and so on.
Gleb Alexandrov, a professional 3D Artist at Creative Shrimp, invites Blender artists to take this comprehensive course covering everything you need to know about lighting, for any occasion. It's also is 100% vanilla Blender and doesn't require any third-party add-ons or applications.
