Topic: Mysterious lighting issue

I was animating a test of someone being shot when I realized the lighting got darker when he fell down and was no longer visible. How can I solve this?

Re: Mysterious lighting issue

The light is reflecting on the torso or legs I suspect.
Try a different angle.

Re: Mysterious lighting issue

Brick by Brick, practically every animator avoides light from the sun as much as they can, and I can't see Real Brick using the sun.

right, I block off the one window in the room I animate in.

The problem could also be that your lamp is losing energy/brightness/whatever-it's-called. If it was running out of power or energy, that could make it keep getting dimmer.

Re: Mysterious lighting issue

Whenever I move a minifigure out of the picture, it gets darker, but whenever I move it back into the picture, the lighting is bright again.

Re: Mysterious lighting issue

It could be that the light is reflecting off of the minifig into the camera (this would be possible because of how shiny lego bricks are). When the minifig is moved out of the picture, there is no light reflecting into the camera lens.
