Unreal Engine – MetaLight Studio UE7352
MetaLight Studio is a lighting studio designed to be an expansion of MetaHuman Creator. A place where to import your own MetaHumans (not included), 3D models and background images.
You can insert how many Metalight Softboxes (Blueprint Objects) you need into the scene and freely set their position around 3D models; you can then set Softboxes properties: intensity, temperature, hue, saturation, panels position and much more.
You can set a custom background color or import your own image / 360 image / HDRI image as a background.
You can set Camera and Color Grading properties.
You can import your 3D models and freely work on the scene while in Editor Mode; then you go into Runtime mode, manage Camera settings and render the scene by simply clicking one button, as if you’re holding a real camera.
MLS is useful to create commercial and marketing images for your videogame.
It is also useful to create animations and movies; a Level Sequencer allows you to easily manage MetaLight Blueprint objects or create a Round Table Sequencer of you 3D model.
