Hey all, I havent posted in awhile but I thought you guys can quickly explain to me how to set up some sort of lighting effect I am looking for. Im taking a final 3d class and its an animation with 2 guys talking in a coffee shop about life in general. The atmosphere is kinda hazy and I want to get that across to the viewer. The set is a simplified diner/coffee shop and they are sitting in the smoking section, lighting is very dark. My problem is that no matter how much I try it out I cant get it at all. Either it the scene is completely black or the fog effect doesnt work at all. Anyone have any thoughts on this one?
