CINEMA 4D R11 Quickstart – Lighting
Now we’re happy with our key light. Next we will create a more even lighting by brightening our figure a little
from the other side.
Create another light source in the scene and name it “Brightener“. Place it at the following coordinates: X=
-360, Y=225, Z=-230 and at an angle of H=-20, P=-10 degrees. Select “Area“ as the type of light.
Since the brightness of the lights in the scene is additive, we must “dim“ the brightener a little.
Reduce the “Intensity“ in the “General“ menu to 40%.
This area light illuminates the figure from a different angle and softens the contrast somewhat. It won’t cast
a shadow since this would cause “crossing“ of the shadows and make the object look bad.
The scene is now pretty evenly lit, but we want to give it a little more pep. Create another light source, name
it “Color“ and, in the Attribute Manager, set its type to “Infinite“. Set its color to turquoise and set its H angle
to -160.
