KeyShot Lighting Study: The Visual Difference Between using an Area Light and a HDRI Environment

KeyShot Lighting Study: The Visual Difference Between using an Area Light and a HDRI Environment. In this tutorial I hope to provide a bit of clarity on the visual difference between using an area light vs using a HDRI environment. To show the difference, I’ve outputted two renderings, one lit by an area light and one light by an HDRI environment.
