(Video/Lessons 14-17)

Completed lesson 14 where I learned how to use gobos in Maya and create shapes/shadows in light to look like objects blocking light. In lesson 15 I learned how to create volumetric light fog in Maya adjusting various attribute settings to create god rays and fog to heighten the mood of a scene. In lesson 16, I created light glows and lens flares in Maya while in render view. Finished lesson 17, where I learned how to control reflection and refraction depth in Maya by adjusting render settings, hypershading, and raytrace shadow attributes.
