HDR Light Studio empowers 3D artists by enabling them to place virtual studio lighting and effects around an object for perfect reflections and illumination. It even augments existing HDRI maps with additional light sources and can make local adjustments to exposure, color and saturation - all in real-time!

Really simple and focused interface
Fast to learn and use, designed for the job
HDR Light Studio is designed specifically for designing and generating HDRI light and reflection maps for CG rendering. Lighting maps are designed independent of the final output resolution. So HDR images can be output at any size.
HDR Light Studio creates HDRI maps in both the major HDRI file formats - EXR (ILM) and HDR(Radiance) files.

The HDR Canvas
Spherical distortions handled in real-time
Users create lighting designs by placing light sources onto a 2D canvas representing a sphere map. As you manipulate your lights on the canvas the shape is automatically distorted in real-time so they maintain their shape when mapped onto a lighting sphere. It's an interactive HDRI!

Everything is Adjustable
Work in a resolution independent environment
Once lights are placed they are totally editable - so adjustments to position, size, brightness and much more can be made really fast. However many times the lighting design is adjusted or tweaked there is no loss of quality because a fresh and perfect HDRI map can be generated whenever you like.

Synthetic Light Sources
Mathematically Perfect Lights
At the heart of HDR Light Studio is the Synthetic Lighting System. This allows for the creation and placement of mathematically generated light sources on the canvas, resulting in visually perfect lights. Simple, yet powerful properties control the look and feel of the lights to generate virtually any studio lighting effect you could want.

Picture Lights
A library of image-based light sources
Picture Lights add hyper realistic image based light sources to HDR Light Studio, extending the realism and creative possibilities for your lighting designs. HDR Light Studio provides a comprehensive collection of soft boxes, spot lights, windows, and much more - providing endless possibilities to take your renders to new levels of realism and creativity.

HDRI Background
Enhance existing HDRI environments
HDR Light Studio can use existing HDRI environments (HDR or EXR) as the background, so additional HDR Light Studio lighting effects can then be added to a scene. This results in a totally editable and adjustable lighting design that can be easily tweaked and adjusted.

Create HDRI Gradient Backgrounds
Using two gradient ramps for luminosity and color, you can design a simple or complex vertical gradient that sits behind your lights and surround your scene. This can be used to create an ambient background light level or studio backdrop.

LiveLight COLLADA Support
Real-time lighting design on your 3D model
Use HDR Light Studio as a stand-alone image based lighting design studio using the included LiveLight real-time rendered lighting preview of your 3D model.
Drag and drop a Collada, OBJ or mi file onto the LiveLight preview window and begin lighting your 3D model in real-time. Collada and mi files also contain your cameras for the perfect match of your lighting design back in your main 3D software.
Save your lighting design as a HDR/EXR file and use it as the environment in your 3D software - the lighting and reflections seen in final render will then perfectly match those created in LiveLight.
