- Inspired by Dan Brown and tradeshow booth creation in SketchUp, we take a look at how to add lighting to your SketchUp models. Follow along as we show you how to take transparent PNGs and place them into your model to simulate light beams and add depth.

Great share again. It plants a lot of ideas and shows enough to get you started. You're the right person for this job, Aaron.
Cool technique for those of us who haven't gotten into rendering yet! With Halloween around the corner, might be a fun way to add some ghostly visitors to the shadows of a dimly lit room! Thanks Aaron and Dan Brown!
i find some of the best educational videos in UA-cam in this channel SketchUp especially with this guy who doesn't try to force you to any thing just if you want to learn your welcome he can make every thing easy and never complicate it neither with the word he choose or with the work he do a lot of respect and appreciation to him and SketchUp team good luck every body and wish every body happy and safe life
This is pretty cool and it makes it look more realistic as well, excellent. thank you.
Very nice trick. I am definitely going to try it!
Really amazing trick brother
I was haveing issue didn't had my high spec PC so lumion and vray was not working but this just solved everything
Thanks a lot man
Thanks Aaron .... I guess the best when it is used on walls, of course with correct pattern of light.
Hi Aaron, quick suggestion...when you exploded the image at 4.10 the image would have been added to your material library. You could adjust the opacity of this material there that would turn up on down the intensity of the projected/light impression. thanks...!
Nice!
Thank you, a great tip. Where would you find a light image like that?
Sprinklers! Made me lol. No but seriously good demonstration if you're a sprinkler installer. Yep if I was doing something similar the image brightness would be reduced by 50%. Also another thought would be to simulate a spot light and project the image on a cone? Any thoughts?
The Illusion of Illumination.
pretty sweet
Thankyou.
You are welcome!
Thank U
Welcome!
Great explanation! Aaron, where did you get this image? I can't find any one!!! Please!
wow.
Cool. No need to render. It can be used to simulate light beams in stage design at preliminary phase
Better project the light beams on a cone shape, that way the light source appears round on the floor & is more convincing.
Yes, a cone. But apply a totally transparent material to the back face (interior surface) of the cone so that when you look down the hallway the overlapping of the light rays of the other light sources are not too dense.
Also an option! Great thinking!
I suppose this works if you have a lot of particulates in the air and if you cannot see the floo
And there was light!
How do you navigate smoothly like that? 3D mouse/space navigator? I feel like it's a must have
I don’t know that Aaron reads all comments but I would guess a 3D mouse as he’s on Mac.
Plz add dark mode in sketchup 2020
You cat take it even further. Change shadow settings to night time so that everything is dark and crank dark and light settings up. All your imported raster images will start to glow. Apparently your png light will glow as well.
Great idea!
Is this capability available for SketchUp Shop?
handy
hi great videos you do it , just i need to know what mouse control you use ?
LATIF production learning I use a Spacemouse Ebterprise from 3dconnexion
@@AaronMakingStuff thank you
These are wonderful and extremely useful videos. The issue for me is that there are so many of them and no real way (as I understand) to actually catalog them so they are easily searchable. I am certain that someone smarter than me can figure out a way to index them with more useful descriptions as to the content. That would be very useful to users at my level.
Do you make Playlists in your UA-cam profile?
does anyone have a png file link for the light beam?
Nice trick! I think it's better to bring the opacity to half maybe, because now it looks more like a long room of five showers, like those built for soldiers or prisoners :-) Just joking. Great work Aaron.
Yeah... those lights were a little intense!
hi sir please help me how to light up jpg or png file
Very helpful, but you assume the viewer uses Photoshop, I actually don’t, I’m sure there are more of us. It would be great help if you could just post the link where we can download the file, he will also be great to have access to the models in your tutorial so we can practice particularly for this experience users like in my case
hi can you please tell me how you are mooving like that in sketchup?
Space Mouse by 3D Connexion
It shows as black spot in rendering program
Yeah... this is NOT something you would want to take into a renderer. In that case, you should be using actual light sources.
che pongan subtitulos en españollllllllllllllllllllllllllllll por favorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Yeah, so I need a safe download site with cheap png's tho...

I can understand there are people that do not a render solution and then this is in any case a way to communicate the idea. However when i see this result and the duration of the total video........i'd prefer seeing the time you use, to make a render. I can to this in less then a minute giving light and all with a render plugin like enscape or unicorn. Why go for the real deal instead of this kind of fake solutions? Look here a training video that we made: ua-cam.com/video/3jQmN9M8BwQ/v-deo.html
CADez BV Horses for courses, as they say. We hear from an amazing number of users who say their customers prefer the non-rendered look of SketchUp over a render... plus, this allows you to still move through the model in real time... something that a render prevents you from doing.
Png images is not good option for rendering
Poor man’s rendering
