This tutorial is for the beginners out there. Lighting is tricky. It’s not always the most obvious thing to get right, and lighting in Unreal poses its own share of challenges on top of that. That’s where this video comes in, where we’ll learn all about the very fundamentals of light, what kind of lights are available to us, how they work, how to make of the most of them, followed by a deep explanation of how light behaves in the real world, and mimicking that in Unreal. Then we’ll learn how to light an environment from total scratch, twice. Once for a daytime lighting, and a second time for an overcast, dark, moody day look.
Fasten your seatbelt because this is a long one!
