Lighting · 2026-08-05

Light has four properties. Amateurs specify zero.

"Warm lighting" is a tragic underuse of the model. Specify the source (single key from upper-left), the temperature (tungsten 3200K), the quality (soft volumetric haze), and the behavior (reflections shifting slowly across the gold). Those four together are the difference between flat AI light and cinematography.

Source, temperature, quality, behavior. Every time.
