To start, I had to create a scene for my lighting test. Using a series of duplicated rectangles and a roof using the create tool, I made a basic hallway. Next I needed some props. Using creativecrash.com I located a wooden barrel prop and placed them in my scene accordingly so that any placed lights would effectively project shadows. After that, I started placing my lights in the scene to portray a sunrise. Firstly, I created a series of spotlights set in dark tones of red and magenta, setting them at ground level facing/aiming towards the rear of the barrel props. I then went onto slightly adjust the ambient colour of each light in order to add a light tone to the projected colours. The final step was the shadows. Using dark blues for the magenta coloured spotlights to add a degree of depth, I then added harmonising dark tones of yellow to the dark red spotlights in order to create a slight transparency in the shadows projected by the barrel props.

What relevance does this lighting test have towards the development of my project and horror?
The relevance of this lighting test is to experiment with coloured lighting in a daytime setting in order to successfully portray horror in both contrasting times of day as I have not yet decided if my 3D environment will be set in the daytime or night-time. This has significant relevance to the development of my project because it helps improve my technical skills, and knowledge in colour selections and shadow depth.
