Good lighting relies on good assets, good composition, texures, design, art direction, etc.
AAA Quality needs AAA Teamwork.
This exaple shows Unlit mode on @ScansFactory assets, one of the bests looking on the market. Composing and lighting this scene was the easiest job ever.
27 Dec 2025
If your scene looks “low quality”, it’s usually not the assets.
It’s the lighting
Good lighting makes average art look AAA
Bad lighting makes AAA art look cheap
Fix the order:
Blockout → composition → lighting → THEN details

We're heartbroken by the passing of our founder and dear friend Vince Zampella.
Vince was a titan and legend of this industry, a visionary leader and a force who shaped teams and games like Call of Duty, Titanfall, Apex Legends, the Star Wars Jedi series and Battlefield for our community in ways that will be felt for generations.
His impact reached far beyond any one game or studio. We will remember Vince for how he showed up every day, trusting his teams, encouraging bold ideas, and believing in Respawn & Battlefield. Most importantly, he championed what he believed was right for the people behind those studios and our players because it mattered.
We will miss him greatly.
Our hearts are with his family, friends, and all who love him.

So proud of my mentee, Scott McGarth! He just showcased the work he’s been developing during our @SkillTree_inc mentorship and shared his story of moving from film to games. I only nudged him — he absolutely crushed it.
Congrats, Scott!

Step into a world where power and ambition come at a price. 💼💀
The “Cost of Greed” by SkillTree mentee Hadi Al-Jurdi captures the dark allure of the 1920s mafia underworld. Every prop, texture, and light was crafted by Hadi, bringing the story to life with atmosphere and detail.
With mentorship from Billy Matjiunis, Hadi sharpened his texturing and technical skills using high to low poly workflows, RGB masking, and vertex painting.
