There are literally so few great lighting tutorials out there like this one, amazing work man! this is so so helpful.

Thank you, really glad to hear it is helpful!

[@manuelstalhammar3729]

Thank you for this tutorial! It's fantastic because it not only teaches which buttons to click but also explains the motivation and purpose behind each light in the scene, which is the most important part ..

Exactly, anyone can hold a kitchen knife, but that doesn’t make them a chef 👩‍🍳

Good tutorial, but for me looks like your vioce audio track is bit too quite, probably better to make it bit louder like 3-5 db i think

[@YouAndMeAcademy]

Thanks for letting me know!

[@bbrother92]

Can you do this with Blender? What do you think about blender?

[@cekuhnen]

yes of course same idea about shaders, area lights, and animation.

[@YouAndMeAcademy]

Absolutely! These concepts are based on real world techniques, which is what every 3D app is trying to replicate… the real world.

@@YouAndMeAcademy it is really funny how much people dont think about lighting in rendering the same way we do in a physical studio ..
