Cinematic Lighting in Maya

Lighting as the main subject

This course, offered through Skillshare, is about cinematic lighting in Maya with Arnold as the renderer. The listing treats lighting as the main craft rather than modeling or texturing, so the emphasis is on how a scene is lit.

What to expect

• Lighting setups built in Maya with Arnold
• Rendering as part of the lighting process

Who it suits

It is labeled intermediate, so it suits someone who already knows Maya and wants to move from basic renders to images with a film-like look. The description is brief, so read the lesson list on the course page before you judge how deep it goes.
