Hey everyone. I worked on another small scene this week.

Half of the this scene takes place at night in the MC's office. The MC's office was the first scene I made when I started to work on the game, and our introduction to the MC takes place at night in his office.

Those early renders were really awkwardly arranged. I did some odd things like leaving the ceiling and walls invisible to allow in outside light. Since then I've played with the lighting in that office for both day and night scenes. I don't think the original renders were particularly bad, but I did make some improvements over episodes two through three.

In a real life situation, someone working in an office like this at night would probably not notice much difference from daytime due to the overhead, diffuse lighting in these types of buildings, and that's always been my approach to lighting the MC's office at night. But here you can see me experimenting with a bit more more of a cinematic style.

That's all for this week. Thank you for your support!
