In this video, I dive into how to light a night scene using Unreal Engine 5. In this video, we will access the full power of the Lumen Global Illumination system in Unreal Engine 5, learn about some lighting and cinematography theory, and light a beautiful and visually compelling night scene inside of Unreal Engine. We will also be discussing how to get "God rays" or "light shafts" in Unreal Engine.

As always, feel free to comment any suggestions for future videos. Thanks for watching!
