A lighting artist is a professional who specializes in creating and setting up lighting in a 3D scene using software such as Maya or Blender. They use their knowledge of lighting principles and techniques to make a scene appear more realistic and visually appealing. They may also work with other artists, such as animators and visual effects artists, to create a cohesive look for the final product. To become a lighting artist, one typically needs a degree in art or a related field, as well as extensive experience working with 3D modeling and animation software.
