This chapter was no doubt an aid to start improving the look and realism of our scene. A correct light rig can make all the difference from an interesting image to an eye-catching and beautiful visualization. You learned how to use the Weather menu and some effects to create a good mood for the scene, and this helped introduce how the Photo mode works along with the effects available. Then, to bring the scene to the next level, you learned how to correctly use spotlights and fill lights to create an optimized render scene without increasing the render time too much. Finally, you understood how to use the reflection cube to quickly improve the reflection in glass surfaces.

What's next? In the next chapter, you will start the delicate task of tweaking and adjusting dozens of effects, particularly, the ones used with the Photo and Movie modes, which can make your scene unique. You will see how to use real camera and color correction effects to improve the realism of your project.
