3D Animation's Life: Three-point Lighting

Hey guys, I am back with some more information for you guys!!!

Today I will talk about three-point lighting.

So, what is three-point lighting?

Three point lighting is a method that used widely in film, video, photographic, computer-generated graphic and games industry. Using three separate light sources, the user can control how the image was present, by controlling reflection, shading and shadows with position of three-point light sources.

The key light is the main light source of object, which mean, it control the overall lighting design (color, angle, strength).

Fill light also shine upon object, but it is more softer, weaker, lower and shine from side angle relative to key light. It is used to eliminate contrast effect that cause by shadows from key light.

Back light shine the subject from behind. Usually, it is used to separate object with the background or highlighting the subject.

By the way, I am starting to do my assignment 2, which is........ we gonna model some historical buildings in Malaysia~~~~~~

I choose to model historical buildings in Melaka. Why? Because I like Melaka.xD I like the way of these buildings survive, I like the things that looks like it was hiding a lot of "story".

These are five buildings that I plan to do
