Lighting tutorial part 4: indoor and artificial lighting

#1

Hi everyone,

I’ve finally finished part 4 of my article, it’s taken a little longer than I would have liked due to work commitments unfortunately.

The next parts are going to take a few months, again due to my workload, so please be patient. I’ve got a lot of very intresting things to add but it’s very time consuming to write, it will hopefully all be worth waiting for though :wink:

You can jump straight to the new bit here:

All the best,

Edit: Since this is being stickied I’m including a link to the start of the article for those who haven’t read it before: www.itchy-animation.co.uk/light.htm

This is a very well written tutorial that have a lot of detail observations and basic theories about natural and artificial lightings. This is a must read for all the CG artists who are having trouble with lighting and want to improve their images quality, myself included. I benefited a lot from this tutorial and can’t wait to read the rest. Frog, thanks for sharing.
