Light the scene
- [Instuctor] Let's set up some lights and turn this rather flat scene and there's something really interesting. We'll use the knowledge from the previous movie to set up lights with shadows and fall offs. First, we're going to render this to the picture of you, so we've got a reference and we can see our progress. So I'm going to render this, it goes nice and quickly. There we go we'll close this down now. And we will create our first light. And use target lights 'cause they're easier to position especially when you're just starting out.
