Studio Lighting

[simonburrows]

Hi,

I'm sure this must have been asked about before,

I'm looking for a tutorial on how to set up a lighting studio in sketchUp for rendering images of furniture in Kerkythea.

Hope someone can help

I'm no expert at rendering and those links will give you good info. I go into my studio photographer mode when I am setting up lights for Kerkythea. I also consider adding reflective surfaces to bounce light back in to the model and sometimes I add gobos as well.
