Ten final lighting tests, starting production tomorrow! (Patreon)
Content
I do apologise for the testing phase of this set taking a little bit longer than usual, but there's a lot in this scene that I had to get right. Not just building it from scratch but also prepping all the different rooms and places in this mansion as well as the exterior. But I think I'm in a good spot now!
The way I know a set works and is ready for production is if I can put a character in each corner of the scene without having to adjust anything further. Sure there's usually an additional lamp I might create or a lamp I might rotate in order to get the lighting just right for the specific spot a character is in, but generally speaking, there should be a level of closeness to what I want to see.
The only render I'm not 100% happy with #7, with Kayla in the hallway from the front. The only lighting in this scene comes in through the skylights and it's a bit harsh. But I also don't plan to render a gazillion shots in that hallway so it's not super important. Will probably adjust it a bit anyway.
So yeah, time for the ceremony to begin!
