I will show how to do a quick and really easy way to do lighting,

for those who are lazy or with a poopy computer, haha

Here's an example:

This
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=493751477

The lights we'll be using are Ligh, and Projected light (New)

Let's start by getting a subject, Here I got Heavy standing and looking fresh.

⠀


• First is The Key Light

These are used Highlight the subject and whatnot.


⠀
⠀
• Fill Lights and Rim Lights

We are going to use Normal lights for both
Lights are excellent for Fill lights, but not so much for Rim lights, BUT this guide is for people who are lazy, so yeah.
⠀
Now this might seems crazy but I am going to do fill light and rim light at the same time but stay with me.

⠀
Start by putting a Fill light somewhere in front of
the subject.

I only use one but if you feel like putting more then go ahead.

Adjusting the brightness can be a little funky, so you'll have adjust them by changing the color the darker tone.

⠀
⠀
⠀
⠀
⠀
Next put some Lights behind the subject,

these will act as both Fill light and a half-assed Rim light.

Be sure to adjust the color, brightness, and size.
⠀
⠀

Here's what we end up with :
⠀
• Finishing details

We're pretty much done but I'd like to give a little detail look make it look a bit better.
⠀
⠀
I added some colored lights and projected lights under the subject to give him a bit of color and make his skin a bit more vibrant.
⠀
You can pretty much just add anything you want in this step as long as it looks good to you.

And remember, you can always do post process stuff, I just personally don't use them that much.
⠀
⠀
⠀
⠀
And Here is the final result :

You have just learned how to do a cheap and less complicated version of my main lighting method
So, here you go.
