Basic Light
Light and Form Intro
This tutorial series will cover basic lighting from a very technical aspect. It is designed to help beginner artists to understand why things look the way they do, in real life, and how to render them for better affect. Each tutorial has a technical diagram designed to explain the concept as clearly as possible. There are many tutorials out there on how to use artistic computer programs, and traditional media, to create specific effects. However, it is the technical knowledge that will give you an edge in rendering with subtlety, regardless of technique.
