- clay render : this is a type of render that is easily gotten in c4d by just adding a floor and a sky object. Be sure to place radiosity to stochatsic and switch of the auto light in options.


These are a few diffirent types of lighting explained very shortly. You need to choose a setup too match your scene. You can\'t always use HDRI ;-)
