Blender 3D - Lighting for Beginners

[@ninjarita]

I love that you talked about each type of light and how they emit light. thank you.

[@aortaplatinum]

Having two viewports, one for actually editing and one to preview the render from the camera perspective, is genius. I gotta use that.

[@cactustactics]

Hey thanks for this! Lighting's such a huge part of photography and filmmaking, but most people never even think about it - and with Blender simulating the real world you really need to know how that stuff works. Even tutorials tend to focus on the modelling and texturing, and skip over the "how to make it look nice in a render" part, so the more info out there the better!

[@SouthernShotty]

Thank you for the nice comment

[@steviewonderhow]

am i the only one who is so obsessed with the thumbnail

[@sekiki96]

Me too lol

[@unixel2867]

No

[@YellowDogAnimations]

I love it too!

Thanks

[@pavanbhadaja8859]

Good to see you. Hope you're doing well in these times.

[@SouthernShotty]

I am, hope you are too

[@lebenin3604]

You have a great production style. With that I mean your animation, renderings and of course your YT videos. It's really fun to follow them. Thank you.

[@SouthernShotty]

Thank you for the nice comment

[@Villio.]

It's good to see you explaining what's new in 2.90 on official channel cause your work is awesome

[@SouthernShotty]

Thank you!

[@milostrdahl2560]

This was simple, but clear and well-explained. Thank you!

[@sekiki96]

You have a so great content! Thanks for sharing all of this for free, it really helps!! ❤

[@SouthernShotty]

You're so welcome!

[@sandakureva]

With how quickly this guy's scene is refreshing... his computer has gotta be NASA-tier.

[@justinle998]

You are amazing! Definitely one of the best blender channels on YT!!!

[@SouthernShotty]

Thanks! Tell all your friends 😂

[@tarettime9392]

Just a quick note. Cycles is a Path tracer along with most production renderers now days. Ray tracing is a slightly less accurate way of calculating light used in realtime applications

[@Jaakeup]

Thanks for the video, I never thought about using different color lights or even touching the sun light.

[@mezzotint4274]

Great! A lot of questions answered now. Very interesting for me are the IES lights. Thanks for your efforts.

[@SouthernShotty]

Glad it was helpful!

[@sk1ttle314]

Lighting is one of the things I am really bad at, thank you so much for this tutorial

[@SouthernShotty]

You're welcome

[@almanning9776]

thanks, I was having trouble lighting objects but know where to start now.

[@4KProductionsFilms]

Useful information here. Thanks a ton for doing this video. I've got to study this thoroughly as my lighting is haphazardly :)

[@SouthernShotty]

Awesome 😁

[@hanlinnzaw4022]

Thanks,man. I find it difficult when it comes to lighting. It helps a lot

[@SouthernShotty]

Glad it helped!

[@ipsey4794]

I love your style brother. Thanks for the video!

[@SouthernShotty]

Thank you 😁

[@jojobee228]

really want to learn how you made that little kitchen in blender, So Cute!

[@SouthernShotty]

The course on how to make it is on www.mographmentor.com

[@jojobee228]

@@SouthernShotty Thank you for replying, I checked it out, it seems using Cinema 4d :( But guess the process would be similar.

[@Lucknhah]

Your content is the best

[@SouthernShotty]

That's kind of you

[@migriv4603]

THIS IS AMAZING THANK YOU

[@enlargedquack]

Do you have any lighting courses specifically for eevee? I have a low end system so I can’t render in cycles and I can’t seem to achieve good lighting in eevee. Thanks in advance!

[@akshayupadhyay2465]

always calm mr. shouthernshotty

[@SouthernShotty]

Haha thank you

[@SouthernShotty]

Hahaha thank you

[@jacklloyd-parker5348]

REALY cool mate!

[@SouthernShotty]

Thanks!

[@WBro.]

Can you make a tutorial on Ocean like your intro animation... please fast I'm waiting your reply!

[@fullyleaded]

Is the book Painting with Light by John Alton?

[@berniaz_]

Hello ShouthernShotty, new subs here, thank you for the video, but i have one question, how do you manage to have a black background in this tutorial??

[@jspieler1357]

Once again, thanks for the great video!

[@SouthernShotty]

Thank you for a great comment

[@viswanathank8282]

Hey i just Noticed the Layer Tabs near the Pause Render Button. Is that the layering system From Blender 2.7? Iv been searchng for a long time is it possible to get it back with an Add-On???

[@SouthernShotty]

It's very similar yes

[@joebiwanhinhin]

11:46 Finally, a tutorial that understands underlying demands. Honestly, loved the vid tho.

[@soyyago5678]

I love this! Do you have any course on light/texturing? I NEED IT! :D Subscribed!

[@SouthernShotty]

Not yet! Maybe soon :)

[@RenderRides]

Yaay!

[@SouthernShotty]

Woooo

[@amarsohi13]

May you tell me full book name or any link of original book didn't know how it is look like Thanks

[@pratibha-py8wf]

can you make a tutorial on how to make the image on the thumbnail

[@theturtle9810]

Hey... awesome video... .. can you make a tutorial on making those clay type modelling... :)

[@SouthernShotty]

Already did 😊

[@akemidryzz9387]

The emission light doesn’t seem to … emit light in eevee, any idea why ? (I’m using Blender 3.4)

[@georgy77719]

Does this work for lego? Because I am a beginner want to have an idea on how to give light

[@VhectorDesignStudio]

Did Andrew Kramer start doing Blender Tutos?

[@melissachaves7918]

What if I have a huge scale scene? my lights won't work property? I'm very noob about this...

[@alperg1142]

Thank you.

[@alexdib3915]

Great video, thank you!

[@joanax5710]

I've been working in trying to undertand how closed scenes are built, rn I have a completely closed off hallway and no mater how many spots and lights I use the enders always come out dark blue, I've tried to change the size and the power but it really doesn't work :( idk what to do

[@stevenbraun918]

How can the render be like instantly with cycles? 7:48 Is it because of "Viewport Denoising Optix AI-Accelerated"?

[@NRW-rk8pr]

My guess is he has a very good graphics card

[@sandyfloss8032]

My light doesnt work, I only see power, specular, radius, and costum distance in light no nodes, nothing

[@darkknight4353]

What gpu do you have. The cycles working very fast for you

i am so confused of blender lighting i added lights and stuff but the render is just completely dark :l

[@maayaa77]

Amazing tutorials !! I know your asked a Gazillion times - how are you getting such speedy Cycles rendering ? love to know currently building a PC :)

[@SouthernShotty]

I have two videos on how I speed up rendering

[@rken100]

That was really good can you do more different styles cartoon clay great video 👌👌👌

[@SouthernShotty]

Yes I will

[@rken100]

Awesome thanks

[@VIPLonda]

nice and helpful

[@nosdets]

You mentioned a book called Painting with Light. Who is the author?

[@judgeworks3687]

is portal still an option in 2.93? I'm not seeing that option in the area light.

[@SouthernShotty]

They sometimes remove features when you're using that far ahead during bug fixing

[@cle1667]

whats ur render engine doe

[@amsie02]

Thank you!!

[@garymarkham5179]

Very interesting 😊

[@SouthernShotty]

Glad you think so!

Do you know what version of blender can be put on a 32 bit computer? if so please tell me , cause I really want to start!

[@SouthernShotty]

I think any of them

[@edmundburke6068]

Thanks

[@lazy6828]

i like you's 3d modeling

[@SouthernShotty]

Thanks!

[@dafff08]

i guess theres no hope for me in terms of lightning. from 10:28 and onward i do not understand anything.

[@toapyandfriends]

If anybody is reading this you have to be in cycles otherwise you won't see portals😀

[@christiankim5904]

what happened to lumalee?!

[@boleroy9895]

I've got a problem: I made a short film and when I render it, than than I'm in the material viewpot mode and not in the render mode. How can I return that?🤔 Did anyone got this problem too? 😶 Thanks for help! 🙂😐

[@eltlbr5764]

Great video love it but i don't know why but i don't finde the key for the portal thing ://

[@SouthernShotty]

Not sure why, sorry ☹️

[@eltlbr5764]

@@SouthernShotty i dont know haha but do you know to how to fix my problem ?

[@SenatorIronland]

I watched through this entire thing and still could not figure out how to spawn light in

[@orun1]

Can you make a tutorial on your clay shader? Or if it already exists can someone link it to me please?

[@SouthernShotty]

I already did

[@themadmoon]

Coool 😎

[@bunnywithmonocle5324]

Sorry to nag, especially on a video that you made a year ago, but I have no idea what you're talking about. I get the feeling that the audience for this is people who have already played around with blender enough to know a few things. I'm at the level where I see the different types of lights, I try to do exactly what you do and go "What are these lines on the screen? What button combination do I use to get to the screen thingy? Why do I always get nothing but a yellow or blue blank screen when I try to copy you???" Ps. Don't take this too seriously, I'm just having a hard time finding videos that explain things on my current level. The geometry stuff is easy for me, but lighting in blender requires me to know what da-hek the tools even are for lighting. This video is great for people who know those tools, but if you can find me something that shows what blender's lighting tools are, I'd really appreciate it.

[@Genichi__]

Came for basic lights. Got out with the equivalent of 5 year long study.

[@stealthproductionz6648]

I watched all of this twice to help my sfm to blender transition. Too bad I can't sub cause it says,and I didn't even know was possible,is that im subscribed to more people compared to my sub count. I never knew that was a thing

[@RainmakerAnton]

I love how the thumbnail has so little to do with the actual content.

[@Madara2B]

you can use nodes on lights....interesting

[@aledmb]

sorry to tell you but you start with a scene that is already fully set up for the sun light to work like it did on that cake scene... this has nothing to do with "lighting for beginners".

[@clopotari147]

This is not lighting for beginners, cause u already have isntalled the lights. Beginners dont know how to set up them in place.

[@daviddenton4234]

[@casioAnim]

this is not a blender lighting for beginners in tutorial. You dont go through any of the interface and how to get started. Should be titled lighting concept for beginners.

[@weltraumimport]

Hai! great video i want to point out though that blender guru has been sharing very homophobic ideology to his viewers on social medias before and is not standing up to his errors. Please don't give him more clout and platform

[@ihatetomatoees]

Huh?

[@Y0uDude]

Your technique and explanation is partly contradictory and contains confusing and wrong informations. The Portal Function makes rendering longer but saves sample times.
