Today, visual effects and animation studios have shifted their production pipelines towards physically based rendering . Yet, the physical interplay of light and materials makes it difficult to control the look of a scene.
Lightrig enables unprecedented art-directability. With our convenient artistic control of illumination, you can quickly achieve the desired appearance, thanks to our in-place compositing. While artistic manipulation is inherently non-physical, our physically consistent light editing makes each edit as close to physical as possible .
Our novel, physically consistent light editing and visualization technology operates inside any physically based renderer. For the first time, we expose the low-level rendering process of computing light paths to artists, with a user-friendly interface and convenient tools for delicate control of light propagation. At the same time, we provide easy integration into custom renderers.
