A little?
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 	  | Quote: | 	 		  1. The background photo is taken.
 
 
2. The light probe is photographed at multiple exposures to capture all the levels of light in the area.
 
 
3. It's then tranformed into a panorama, which is later wrapped around the 3D scene as a global light source (using the multiple levels of light which are stored into a HDR file.)
 
 
4. A photo is taken of the probe with the same angle of the final shot, which you later use in the 3D software to line the reflective sphere up with a digital one (effectively rotating the lighting into place)
 
 
5. Different layers are posed/prepared in the 3D software before the final rendering is done.
 
 
6. Each layer is rendered using the lighting captured with the reflective sphere, and then composited in Photoshop. | 	  
 
Sound simple...     
 
 
Little clip too? _________________
