3D Lighting

So, in my Computer Graphics class this week, we were given a model and were told to light it in four different ways. It was pretty fun. :)


This one is the "sunset" setup - which despite its cheesiness, also included a requirement for a ramp in the background.


Here's the "monster" setup. We were to set at least two highly colored lights positioned beneath the model. If I remember right, I had a greenish one and a blue-purple up front, and a yellowish in the back. All were very low intensity.


This is what he called "global illumination" or a "dome" setup. Lotsa low intensity lights in a dome-shape around the model. It was kinda frustrating, but turned out well I think.


This is the "four-point" setup, which I think is kinda silly, just because there are only three lights in a four-point setup. ;)

Enjoy! :D
(P.S. For the record, I find this model fairly creepy, , , but it was the least weird of the options ;))
