How to get that space look - 60 second Blender tutorial

A quick run down on how i light up and composite (super reduced node setup though) my space renderings.

Please use "medium high contrast"- I did say it right but captured it incorrectly in the video, sorry for that!

Make sure your albedo values of your surfaces are roughly where they should be (white paper has a value of ~0.65, there should not be a lot in you scene which is brighter), otherwise your result will be a completely white image.

So I don't use blender and I don't know why youtube recommended me this but I appreciate a tutorial that's quick and to the point. Good job man

No intro, no like and subscribe, no "Hey Guys" what a god.

[Nurpus]

This is the textbook example of how every youtube tutorial should go

god giving tutorials like "it's dark in space, let's add a sun"

[MrPlaiedes]

What's this?! A tutorial without us having to watch the guy make his lunch?

[AaronRotenberg]

Filmic medium-high contrast + extremely bright sun lamp is what you generally want to be using for physically-based outdoor rendering anyway.

This isn't just a tutorial on how to use Blender, this is a tutorial on how to do tutorials!

are we not gonna talk about how hyper realistic that final image looks like. i dont mean just the shadows and stuff, the 3d model with that lighting looks absolutely amazing

[blatadej]

I accidentally found this cool video and found out that the author was working on my favorite game x4 Foundation. That's cool!

[DVDave]

This is amazing! I'm also going to need a 1 minute tutorial on how to make that amazing space craft, haha

[PervonHarke]

Man I wish every tutorials for every Programm or task in YouTube would be like this. It would save so many hours.

[WestinLee]

It's like you knew I needed this look and you delivered for my birthday. Thank you!

That thumbnail has powers beyond human comprehension. I couldn't skip this video just because of the sheer awesomeness of the thumbnail.

[MaximizedAction]

Wow, that looks just like 70s props. Incredible.

[brasidas]

Beautiful! 2001 nostalgia kicking in!

Like the way,
the information is presented. Not wasting a single second. I wish more people follow this pattern.

I don't even use blender but for being a YouTuber who's straight to the point you get both a like and a subscriber
