just for reference

just playing about with lighting and renders in c4d R11 (not studio version so no GI, ambient occlusion etc) in advance of me teaching with R11 basic to ND3D students starting this week

this image uses no GI or AO or any plugins or sky objects – it’s a lesson in exploring the software in more depth rather than just relying on plugins and the never-ending ‘must have the latest stuff’ I think – 2 lights only, here no GSG lighting kit

here’s the file – have a look
