    How to do GOBOs in EEVEE (old version, hopefully EEVEE next will have light node support): 1. Create a plane 2. Plug your GOBO into the principled shader's alpha port 3. In the settings tab of the shader, enable one of the alpha options for shadows 4. If your GOBO is visible in the shot, enable backface culling in the settings and flip the normals so that the culled side is facing the camera. That way it is invisible while still casting shadows.

    4. If your GOBO is visible in the shot, enable backface culling in the settings and flip the normals so that the culled side is facing the camera. That way it is invisible while still casting shadows. Or in "Object Properties" panel in "Visibility/Ray Visibility" unchek "Camera"(Object visibility to camera rays)

    @@Igoreshkin The ray settings only work in cycles. EEVEE (rather annoyingly) doesn't have them, the settings end with "set holdout" if you have eevee selected as the render engine.

    I'm a hobby photographer and all you said is valid for photography since light is universal. I also recommend anyone who wants to improve their lighting skills to go out and try to figure out where light come from and where it goes. Example: when sitting in a cafe, you can watch the light coming through the window. Follow the light when it hits the wall where it is reflected. The light gets another color and intensity depending on the material of the wall. When you walk through the city, watch the light under a bridge or between tall buildings with reflective facade. There is direct light with hard shadows and diffuse light with soft shadows. I use all these lights for portrait shots. Sometimes ust by moving your model 2 meter you can have a different light situation. After a while you can "read" the light. Btw. I used Blender to make a presentation about the "inversed square law" for the members of my photo club.

    Your 3D artistry is truly inspiring! As an old-school graphic designer venturing into the world of Blender, your work is not only breathtaking but also a guiding light on my journey. Your creations ignite my passion for learning, especially as I embark on the path of turning my packaging designs into 3D models. Thank you for being such a source of inspiration!

    Just got the Interior course about a week ago. Working my way through it and finding all kinds of nuggets of information that I hope to apply in my projects, past, present and future. BTW, that has to be one of the longest setups for a Rick Roll in history, when you did that video about that tunnel a while back. Lol

    I'm really glad you are enjoying it! If you could leave a rating for the course when you have finished watching, I would really appreciate that. I'm surprising you noticed that I've used this tunnel scan before. I've had this series planned for a long time. :)
