Figure 4.23 shows the new light in place.
Note
While you can??™t tell LightWave to create off-white lights by default, you can change
multiple lights to off-white (or any other color) at the same time. Select all of the
lights you want to adjust, and change the color settings in the Lights Properties panel
to affect all of the lights at once. In the same way, you can modify other light properties
for all selected lights as well.
If you have Auto Key enabled at the bottom of Layout, this keyframe will be created
for you automatically.
Gobo images can be created with a paint package such as Adobe Photoshop. Image
dimensions should match your render resolution, and 24-bit color depth generally
works best for most applications. However, if it??™s a smaller image that??™s not viewed
close up in your 3D scene, you can save memory and use 8-bit images. Perhaps you
just need to project a small logo onto a wall? A smaller image would serve your needs
well.Video-resolution gobo images should have pixel dimensions of 720?—486.
