Lighting Study

Hello everyone.
In this project I wanted to test some lighting and color schemes.
Also, there is a related article where I explain how to replicate 3D lighting from a Movie scene - Joker (2019)

During the study, I used the free character Ray from CGTarian (https://www.cgtarian.com/) which is a nice and cartoony character to use for practice.

The lighting setup has been created in Maya with Arnold as renderer

All scenes created with an ACES Workflow. Warm tone in this case
