"Visualizing light in architecture is a major challenge to architects, interior designers, stage and production designers, and of course students. In fact, this is a decisive motivating factor to use 3D software - even though it's still regarded to be a rather difficult subject." "Light Shadow Space shows how to illuminate digital building models the correct way. In several lessons, you'll learn how to develop light sets step-by-step to achieve a realistic look - you'll exercise this using Cinema 4D and several, ready-to-use 3D models provided by the author. The tutorials include basics on dealing with Cinema 4D in general, on importing CAAD models and on light and shadowing features that the latest Version 10 has to offer."--Jacket
