In this book, industry veteran, artist and teacher Lee Lanier delves into the history, theory, and the practical and aesthetic application of lighting in 3D programs, from simple lighting scenarios all the way to advanced, complex lighting situations. Divided into three sections, the history portion discusses lighting as it's been used throughout the history of human art, including the art of primitive cultures, the Renaissance, and lighting as used in stage, photography, motion pictures, and video production from the early 20th century to today. The theory section discusses the fundamental mechanisms of light in the real world, and explains how these mechanisms are replicated in a 3D program. The practical portion of the book offers step-by-step tutorials for applying the lighting techniques discussed in Autodesk Maya and Blender.
Aesthetic 3D Lighting explores and offers to readers:
Short tutorials are included for introductory lessons suitable for beginners, while longer tutorials (in the form of case studies) are designed for advanced lighting situations and offer a challenge to both beginners and professionals. An accompanying eResource includes project files for all of the tutorials and exercises discussed in the book, allowing readers to practice the techniques and lighting scenarios explored.
