One of the most critical elements involved in creating realistically lit interior environments is exposure control. In this tutorial you will be introduced to using the linear workflow for gamma correct lighting in Cinema 4D, allowing you produce more photorealistic renders, as well as improve specular highlights and anti-aliasing.

In this tutorial we will run through the basics of setting up a scene with HDRI lighting.

In this tutorial we will run through the basics of setting up a scene with HDRI lighting. Using HDRI lighting has its pros and cons. If you use it, you can archive stunningly realistic renders

Compositing Shadows

Here we'll learn how to case shadows in C4D. This is pretty easy, but at the same time, there are many different results you can get from doing the same thing.

Create realistic reflections using Cinema 4d HDRI lighting.

Few easy steps to make renders life-like using lighting and textures techniques.

Caustics are formed by light being reflected or transmitted by a number of specular (shiny) surfaces before interacting with a diffuse (light scattering) surface. The light cast onto a dining table by a wine glass is one of the most common examples of caustics.
