00:00.600 --> 00:05.760
We'll come back now through lighting, we can enhance the subsurface scattering effect of this blood

00:05.760 --> 00:09.090
present material through adding a few more spotlights in our scene.

00:09.420 --> 00:12.240
I'm going to hit the snapshot image here so we can get a before image.

00:12.260 --> 00:14.550
I'm going to close this and add a few lights.

00:15.000 --> 00:19.760
Let's go to the rendering tab here and get to the spotlight at a spotlight.

00:19.770 --> 00:26.070
And I'm going to do to get the movement tabulator and move this back and rotate this in one hundred

00:26.070 --> 00:30.180
and eighty degrees here by going to the channel box timing in one hundred and eighty.

00:31.930 --> 00:38.310
Move this back a little bit and I'm going to hit the Arnold Render view here again so I can see how

00:38.310 --> 00:41.340
much spread we need to increase this and also the intensity.

00:41.910 --> 00:46.830
So I'm going to go to the associate editor here and increase the intensity of this light until we can

00:46.830 --> 00:53.670
see its effect, start typing in big numbers like 50, maybe something even more like one hundred.

00:55.440 --> 01:00.270
And I'm going to increase the tone angle so it captures the entire piece.

01:01.740 --> 01:06.150
Now want to move back to the front so we can start to see the subsurface scattering effect to figure

01:06.150 --> 01:13.050
out what kind of intensity we need to increase the light by, because the idea behind this effect is

01:13.050 --> 01:17.340
that we want to see the light coming through the material.

01:17.790 --> 01:21.480
So I'm going to add a five here.

01:21.480 --> 01:27.720
So we're going to five hundred and we can start to see that there is a bit of lightness coming through

01:28.200 --> 01:28.950
the object.

01:29.200 --> 01:34.920
Now we can keep increasing the light intensity or and or we can also adjust the material attributes,

01:35.160 --> 01:40.980
but going to the standard surface, going down to subsurface and we can adjust the scale or the radius

01:41.190 --> 01:47.740
so that we get more intense subsurface effect at the edges coming through the object.

01:48.180 --> 01:51.900
Now, depending on how you want your blob to look, you can adjust this here.

01:51.900 --> 01:53.550
You can also adjust the color, of course.

01:53.790 --> 01:59.640
And then scale also has a similar effect based on the scene scale, depending on if you scaled up your

01:59.640 --> 02:00.350
object or not.

02:00.870 --> 02:04.590
I'm going to reduce this down just a little bit because I don't want the effect to be too strong.

02:04.830 --> 02:10.300
But I do want to be able to see some difference between the center of it and the edges of it.

02:10.320 --> 02:13.380
It gives it a bit more dimensionality and goofiness.

02:13.770 --> 02:18.570
We can see if we compare it to the beginning image, this looks a bit plastic and solid.

02:18.900 --> 02:24.000
And then if we jump back to our current render, this subsurface scattering effect gives it a much more

02:24.000 --> 02:25.380
liquid fluid feel.

02:25.830 --> 02:30.690
I also want to reduce the reflectivity, the specular aspect of this a little bit.

02:30.960 --> 02:36.990
I think we can increase the roughness, maybe just a little bit point one five instead of point one

02:37.980 --> 02:38.130
to.

02:38.140 --> 02:40.950
So the specular reflections aren't as sharp.

02:41.490 --> 02:46.260
In the next lesson, I will show you how to animate a camera and get the final rendered image ready

02:46.260 --> 02:46.650
to batch.

02:47.040 --> 02:47.640
Thanks for watching.
