This tutorial is a replacement for 100 lessons.. Also, "User's Manual" for learning lights.. Thanks Will...
We don't want short tutorials! These in depth ones are just fine :)
Haha, thanks for letting me know!
agreed!!!
Wonderful tutorial! I agree: we don't want "short". Finally I could see and understand the difference of the Fall Off settings and Bloom. Thank you so much
Thank you, Will!
As a student who is struggling to pay his bills due to Covid-19 I am so so glad you put out these awesome tutorials basically for free.
And it gives us something to do in quarantine as well :)
Stay safe and thank you!
You're very welcome! I'm glad my efforts are beneficial. Cheers and best of luck!!
None of this is redundant for us that are starting out. Excellent tutorial to cover the aspects of lighting.
Awesome, thank you!
One of the best tutorials I've seen online. Great skills for teaching and making the content interesting. Thanks Will !
I appreciate that! Cheers.
One of the best lighting setup tutorial I have come across... Thanks Will.
Wow, thanks!
thanks. it's great that the lesson is long it allows you to dive more deeply into the topic
Glad you think so!
Thank you ! You're a star, Will. I've been editing HDRI environment for years and still learnt from this .
And cool shirt !
Thanks!
thank you! awesome tutorial!!!!
Thank you soo much Will for providing this video so that students and professionals could learn it in their quarantine time.
It's my pleasure! If you know anyone who'd benefit from it, feel free to share! :D
Thanks for such a useful tutorial. I just started to understand Keyshot.
Glad it was helpful!
Maybe I haven't found a good KS HDRI lighting tutorial before, but this one! JUST WOW!!! Thank you very much Will. Very helpful.
That's killer! I'm glad to hear it filled a gap!
Fantastic, Will. I'm a beginner so the moderate pace and longer length was nice. The "lecture" in the beginning and the demos in the second half was a good format as well. Thank you.
Oh, cool! Thanks for letting me know!
Awesome tutorial! Keep it up!
Trying! :)
You've got a suscriber. Bless from Peru ! If I improve more, Ill take your classes . Thanks !
That's nice of you! Be sure to get as much as you can from all my free content first! :)
Getting me through my ID graduation phase and couldn’t be more proud of the results. Thanks so much
Heck yeah! Glad to hear it, haha
thanks alot sir for ths wonderfull tutorial and for the great book suggestion.
god bless you
You are most welcome, Nicku. Cheers!
I've been using Keyshot for a couple years now and I can tell you that in terms of lighting I've completely learned more from this 45 min tutorial than I have from experience (which honestly speaks poorly of my skills but then at my job they generally want fast, simple renderings) as I've never really taken the time to go deep into every feature. Looking forward to your next tutorials and I just signed up to your latest webinar on material graphs, definitely excited about that one. Amazing job!
That’s awesome! Thanks and looking forward to it!
great tutorial! thanks!
You're welcome!
thanks bro, I like the way you explain things and you care for your audience keep it up
I appreciate that!
Sir your tutorials are very nice, thank you.
You're welcome!
thanks a lot!
Super nice tutorial, man. This information si gold made knowledge, congrats.
Thank you. Knowing what to do with the lighting is a big part of rendering!
thanks for your effort sharing this information. crystal clear.....
Happy to hear that!
Such a nice tutorial.
Thanks!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Cheers!
thank you so much
You're welcome.
that was a great tutorial
Thanks.
I was just told by sheri you use to work at keyshot as a trainer, wow man! I learn pretty much the whole software from your video!
Hi James! Yeah, Sheri's awesome. I enjoyed working with the team at Luxion! Eventually, I wanted to shift my focus to some other things and also wanted to travel less. (this was before the whole pandemic) Glad to help!
Will Gibbons your Chanel is probably the best education on key shot! Really can’t think you enough, I learning new skill from your Chanel every day. Keep up the good work! I hope keyshot pay your well, because we just bought more license at ibm because of your tutoring video
thanks for the tutorial you are a good teacher. I have been using keyshot for a while for basic renders of models I sell. I would rather spend time modeling than rendering. I have been struggling with keyshot for a while.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks!:)
My pleasure!
pretty good!
Decent comment.
Great job sir! ;)
Thank you kindly!
Thanks sir 👍👌
For sure!
Nicely Video, Thanks a lot Will for all your support in the Theory and Practice area into Renders. PD: Use music for the background like that amazing explanation you did, just for reduce the noise (grain) in the result! ;D THANKS wanna see the next tutorial video
You're welcome!
My favorite topic! LIGHTS!
Thanks brother!
thanks...
You're welcome!
Thank you will your a G
You're welcome!
Hi Will, I find this tutorial to be really enlighting! I always have a question that i sould like to get sorted out, do keyshot profesionals prefer physical lights or HDRI on the most part? Thanks!
I think it's going to depend 100% on each unique situation. HDRIs render faster, but if you struggle to get the lighting the way you want or to dial in your shadows with the HDRI, then area lights are the way to go. It's not one over the other, just think of one as a Flathead screw driver and the other as a Philips head. Different tools for different jobs!
peeeeeeeeeeeeeerfeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeectttttttttttt thank you verrrryyyy much man . very useful
Haha, Happy to help!
Awesome video! Simplifies all about lightning. I have question though. I'm using keyshot 8, i don't know if thats the problem, but when i add a pin on a geometry added cube, the light illuminates the whole face of the cube. When i reduce the pin size the light becomes weaker but i don't manage to get the pin light contour on the object. Thanks!
If your light gets weaker when you scale the pin down (and it will), you need to increase the brightness. To get the contour, the light needs to be LARGER than the object and placed behind or to the side of your object. Hope that helps.
Thanks for the tutorial :D Quick question: can you put this kind of a realistic product render as a "product image" in your website or etsy?
Sure! Why not? I suppose you should be sure the product you're advertising is practically identical so you're not advertising something that you're not selling. That said, nearly all the marketing shots you see from large companies are indeed renderings.
@@WillGibbons Thanks Will, that's good to know!
Hi Will
I am huge fan of yours and i like your videos very much
I request you to please upload a soap shader in Keyshot
Thanks and Regards
That's an interesting request! If I don't get to it anytime soon, I might recommend using the new material called translucent medium as a starting point!
🔥
Cheers!
Can I exclude objects from the lighting environment in keyshot ?
No, not at this time.
Super nice tutorial - thank you! Is it possible to export the Environment as HDR to use in a different software? Manual says so but I can only save "HDZ"s...
You should be able to export other formats unless it's endoded as HDZ. Environments that are protected, like some of the photographic environments in KeyShot's library are not able to be exported.
Thank you @@WillGibbons , yes you`re right- HDRs can be adjusted and exported. It`s just that all the KS environments are HDZ- also the studios etc. Well- I`ll get some elswhere then. Cheers!
* holds up _Light for Visual Artists_ *
* book title rendered illegible from blown out white light * 😂
nice quick fix tho 😉
do you add a ground plane to your CAD? or in Keyshot?
In KeyShot: ctrl+g
Hi sir,, i was rendering image in Transparent Background but the ground plane is appearing ..please help me out.
You'll need to hide the ground plane. A physical ground plane is geometry (even if you can see through it). You'll need to have ground shadows turned on in the environment settings and enable ground illumination if you want in the real-time render settings. Then, hide your physical ground plane and render with transparency and it should work out.
@@WillGibbons i see.... i actually did that to get transparent bkground . I just had a doubt if i hide the ground plane
then it may loose some properties in the overall render ..
But you just cleared my doubt...
Thank you very much sir :) .
Fan btw 💕
Hello Will， could you tell me why the box has shadow when the enviroment turns to all black?
I'm sorry. I'm not sure. I can't really answer without seeing an example.
Is Keyshot able to replace VRay?
Sure. Why not? I think this is a bit of a subjective question.
Hi, could you please make one video on jewelry light setting to get realistic view. Because there is one video of women ring 💍 rendering. But that’s too basic.
Thanks. I will add this to the list and hope to be able to make one eventually.
@@WillGibbons could you please make it little earlier that would be helpful for us. Please if you can 🙏
Thanks.
