Guy Rabiller and 2d Lighting 2005-05-05 - By matt hollingsworth

Hey guys,
Thanks for the info! Looks to me like this guy fakes it, though,
right? The setup you used (Guy), looked like you could actually go into
your 3D scene, look through the light and use it however you want and
see the results update. IS this true? Is it limited to a Directional
light?
Still cool, though. Would like to be in the 3D scene while doing it,
though, not in the FX tree.
cheers,
-M
