And in this chapter we'll take a look at the super glossy surfaces. How to make a surface look wet and glossy? Watch this chapter (oh, the effect is 90% made of variable roughness). How to use a projection technique to add an eye-catching throw pattern to a light source? Let's simulate the same effect (but faster!) using the light texture. Physically-based caustics can be a pain in the butt. In the lighting hack #1 we'll be adding a virtual reflection on top of our original one. In the introduction video I'll walk you through the video course chapters and other important stuff. “I can’t think of many better ways to master both realistic and stylistic lighting than with this useful and enjoyable video series' You just need to know how to HACK the realistic lighting in Blender. You can take a shortcut (or rather a smartcut) and render it in 2 minutes. Even the nerdiest of nerds wouldn't enjoy it. Waiting 53 hours watching render buckets crawl across the screen. If you’ve ever tried to create a thick cloudy fog with the light shining through it, you know how tantalizing it is.
