2D Light
A positioned light over the layers below — glow or spotlight
Adds a directional light/shading pass, giving flat content a sense of a surface catching light from somewhere. Subtle dimensionality.
I. Made with 2D Light
II. Everything else
- Beam — A beam of light over your scene — line, cross, star, ring, triangle or viewport frame
- Bloom — Soft glow on the brightest areas
- Cast Light — Daylight through leaves, a blind or a window — warm where it lands, cool in the shade
- God Rays — Shafts of light thrown by the bright parts of the layers below
- Rain — Rain falling in front of the picture, or running down a wet, fogged window over it
- Sheen — Reads brightness as height and lights it — gloss, relief and thin-film colour
- Vignette — Shade the frame edges, or cut them away so the layers below show through
