Lighting Workshop Module #2

For this assignment I used an older model that I made of toothless and tried to recreate the first scene in the movie where both characters interact. I used colors tones of oranges, pinks and blues to recreate the dusk feel with more warmer colors. Also used as a base lighting setting the HDRI in the SkyLight with similar tones of what I was going for to have a starting color and work on add other lights to reinforce the look. I use a DirectionalLight for the orange sun color and also to get the shadows, and then three RectLights of blue, pink and yellow to pop out more the model.
