It is opportunity for all of your learners to learn here about Maya concepts with instructional video tutorials. The special tutorial is about lighting command of Maya and how you can manage the object for rendering scene using lighting effects. Nearly in every project, you need of lighting for the display of your object in scene. It becomes helpful in rendering process when the renderer shows it with better result due to lighting. Sometime it happens that you create the scene well but don’t care for its lighting requirements. In this case when you will render the scene it doesn’t show better result.

The lighting is not only required in modeling of scene but also requires shading for creating shadow of the object to make it real. To create shading, the lighting effects is applied on the object in horizontal way because only in this way it will drop light on the object and consequently the shadow will create. The lighting and shading effects are nearly alike as sun lighting. The sun is also positioned on the horizontal way and it creates shadow of the object when an object comes in the way of its light. Once you created the light then it can be moved and rotate its position according to the requirements of your scene. For more detail, the lighting application is shown in this video.
