Lighting and Rendering your animated scenes is a great way to enhance your work and allow your portfolio to look more impressive and professional. In the past, we've saved this training for the final Advanced module but since our students seem to find work long before they even begin that module, we've created this stand-alone section to learn to light and render your shots whenever you're ready.

Professional lighting is a product of the theatre, as is much of the animation principles we practice. Lighting brings about focus and the application of these techniques will improve your animated scenes immensely.
