Lighting

Types of Lights
There are 4 types of lights in Blender, in addition to controls over the lighting in the world settings:

1. Point Light
     An omni-directional light pushing light in all directions. It's like a light emitted from a light bulb if the bulb where lighting in all directions including the base.

​2. Spot Light
     Emits a cone-shaped beam of light in a single direction like one would see in the theater.

​3. Area Light
     Resembles a field of light generated from a uniform surface, like the light created by a television screen, a window or a cloudy sky.
​4. Sun Light
     Creates a single direction, powerful light from a very far distance.

Volumetric Lighting
Volumetric lighting is the type you would see if you were in a space with a lot of dust, mist, or smoke in the air. Here are some examples:

Volumetric Lighting Tutorial Practice
Follow this tutorial to practice your lighting and text manipulation in Blender.

NOTE:
I'VE FOUND THAT WHEN I FOLLOWED THIS TUTORIAL MY COMPUTER SLOWED DOWN SIGNIFICANTLY. 
BE PATIENT...DON'T CLICK TOO FAST.

SETTING THE TILE SIZE TO 16 INSTEAD OF 4 HELPS SPEED UP THE PROGRAM A LOT.
