HDR Light Studio is so fast and interactive, you can actually try out a few different lighting set-ups when lighting objects and scenes, without it taking hours.

Fedde Souverein

HDR Light Studio changed the way we light our scenes completely. With the use of it’s Render View we are able to tweak the smallest highlights in real-time. HDR Light Studio was our best investment we made so far. The costs amortised pretty quickly due to the huge amount of time we saved for lighting.

HDR Light Studio has really changed the way I do my product/package renders. Now I don't even consider doing it without HDRLS. It's really faster and very, very intuitive. And the integration with LightWave 3D is amazing, completely lag free, with an immediate feedback.

Luis Lopes
Senior Scientific Animator at DEMCON Nymus 3D

HDR Light studio has made lighting faster, more accurate and more fun for me. The traditional way of lighting in CGI always felt awkward to me. After trying out HDR Light Studio on a project, we have never lit any scene without using it.

Personally coming from the traditional photography world into CGI, HDR Light Studio is great with the understanding of real world lighting and allows me to create imagery better and faster. Truly one of the best tools for a CGI tool box!.

Bradley Adelmann
Visualization Designer, Mackevision

I'm more of techie than an artist, but even I can create pretty good looking images with this easy to use tool, and the team of artists I support really do some outstanding work with HDR Light Studio as a key component of the process. Bonus: Support from Lightmap is always outstanding.

HDR Light Studio is an excellent solution for creating varying types of lighting scenarios with HDR images. No longer are you stuck with stock HDR images or tediously editing them and constantly re-testing to get the look you want. I honestly can't imagine a lighting pipeline that would not benefit from this tool.

Laura Brousseau
Head of Lighting at Cinesite

HDR Light Studio has been a game changer from the start putting the artist back on the driving seat, the results speak volumes but it is the flexibility to design the lighting by painting and interactively work that made our work better... This is the kind of modern tools that change how you work for the better, where the director and creative team work in sync and where the final result is what counts. Just brilliant.
