2. North Biome

North - Winter

North - Winter

The quadrants provide four distinct biomes for you to explore. To start in the North biome, press the 2 key. This quadrant has the most drastic environment lighting changes of the four quadrants.

A good light design strategy is to start with a drastic change to your light settings as this sets the boundaries for the look of your project. This also gives you a feel for how much is too much or too little.

This also means you won't waste time with small adjustments that make it harder to see what lighting settings you’re adjusting without easily showing the results of your adjustments.

Priorities

It's important to understand how to use the priorities of the Post Process Volumes included in the Day Sequence device and Lumen Exposure Manager, and what they’re capable of.

Inside the North folder, you’ll find Day Sequence Device_North and North_PPV. This is where the art direction starts to get more complex, so you’ll have to pay attention to the Priority value in both of these.
