So if you are a 3d artist you will no doubt understand how challenging it can be to master lighting. If you’ve been doing this for some time you will have felt the sting of spending hours trying to get this stage of the pipeline perfected. You are not alone, this area of art is a very unforgiving craft, but it doesn’t have to be. Today I will try and show you everything that’s involved with lighting within the unreal 5 engine. If you use Blender or any other 3d package, today's language will still apply to those tools. We will look at basic lights such as point lamps, well move on to dynamic lighting, HDRIs, and lastly how to blend these all together to get the best results.

It's really Nice and clear! I've just an issue. If want to work in a physically correct wat and crack up the directional over 100k lux all other small lights set in candelas were overhelmed, so working in manual mode it's absolutely useless... Do you have any advise??

This was fantastic, thank you. Doing an environment one as a stream would be fantastic, but it would also be great if you'd leave it up for those in different time zones. Then it can be both! ☺️ Thank you for this!

Hey brother, I'm working on my first short film in Unreal Engine 5. I'm at a bit of a loss, because I need to have the main character throw a warhammer over a ledge and have it land with the metal part of the hammer facing down (as in it's vertically placed, not lying horizontal). I can't seem to make the hammer fly through the air and look realistic. It looks very unnatural. Could you give me a possible suggestion? Because finding a reference of said thing has proven impossible.

Strange... You apparently are a great artist. Yet the video is just a collection of some very basic advises like "light can be of different intensity", "light can be of different color". Why such enthusiastic comments?
