Heya folks. 😀

I've heard that the Games Development community is popping off on here, so figured I would try it out!

I'm a Lighting Artist in the Games Industry, and currently run a YouTube channel for all things Environment & Lighting Art related. 👋

The EMC3D channel hit it's 1 year anniversary today!

It all started with a video tutorial on how to do thumbnails for ArtStation on April 6, 2024. ☺️

I've met so many cool people because of the channel, and am looking forward to meeting many more, thank you. 🙏

I don't suppose any friends of friends have the Naughty Dog lighting art test from the olden days?

I'm gonna do some 0.18 grey studies in a few weeks and it reminded me of this beauty, the original greybox test!

Feel free to DM me.👀💡

Hey folks 👋,

I've formed a 'Lighting For Games Hub' Miro board based around my interests and perspective.

On the board you'll find guides, sign-posting to resources, free content, MIRO exclusive content, and more.
