My New Favorite Lighting Technique
🕑 Added 2024-12-07 12:39:20 +0000 UTCFriends!
I never thought about clicking onto this magical button and get access to a way more easy way to create my lights exactly how I want them to be.
Especially for product shots, were the light just has to be tweaked until perfection, this is a very powerful way to go!
Of course I will still use my "traditional method" to set up lights but it looks like this will make my lighting workflow from now on way more efficient.
Let me know, if you are actually doing this already all the time or if the tutorial was helpful for you!
PS: I feel slightly stupid that I didn´t used this already but sometimes it happens that even "advanced users" dont see things to make their workflows more efficient.

Pretty cool thanks for sharing! Is there a way to get access to the png 'map' by chance? Thank you!

That is exactly what I think, too!

Super cool! The light image textures are good for speed I think, but the graph technique adds the ultimate precision and flexibility.
