Light and Forests

My project is about using different lighting patterns to provoke certain emotions from an audience. My main goal is finding out different lighting patterns that can provoke a certain emotion to be used in story games so they can do away with needless exposition. For this I have made a magical forest as this let me further my 3D environment-creation skills and allowed me to add extra sources of light such as mushrooms and fireflies with different colours. Most people recognise that a red light means danger or warning and I want to expand that to other colours too. The forest I’m creating is inspired by fantasy and magical realism which means the scene will look normal at a glance but the more you look the more unnatural and magical the scene will become.
