…Interior lights can help complement a sky portal rendering.…What I'll do in this scene is go through my materials a…bit, taking my existing incandescent materials that use an MIA light surface.…And tone them back a bit.…Because they're so bright they're causing spots in the render.…I'll also make sure things are correctly assigned.…And I'm going to put lights in the chandeliers.…One of the things I've also done in my sky portals, is to go through each one…and make sure in the sky portal node, that…the light shader and photon emitter is connected properly.…
I was getting an error during one of my renderings…that said, hey this light is not showing any shader here.…So I made sure I went through all of my portal nodes, my area lights.…And that I had an MIA.…portal light in there, in the light shader and photon emitter.…Now for the lights and materials to put on the interior lights.…What I'll do is use my outliner and I'll go in and select the Amoeba bulbs.…Those are the bulbs in the center of those chandeliers.…
