Foundations of Light and Shadow Part 1 Planes

Published on Jul 21, 2013
This is the first video in a series on basic lighting knowledge. I designed this for beginners who want to know the answer to questions like, "How do I know where to put light and shadow? How do I make things look three-dimensional?"

It's a really complicated subject, so I can't cover everything in a short and quick video. Instead of laying tons of concepts on you, I'm gonna take this slow and try to teach you in a way I wish I had been taught. Hopefully it'll be helpful!

Tools:
Adobe Photoshop CS6
Camtasia Studio
Wacom Cintiq 22HD
