Electric Dreams - Relight

Just some small practice for cinematic lighting using Lumen in UE 5.3 without any addons or plugins :) I wanted to experiment with different lighting setups and see how it affects the mood of exactly the same scene and what feelings each one of them evokes. Each one is on a separate layer and is build from scratch:) I've played a bit with chromatic aberration, convolution, volumetrics, fog, aerial perspective and Sky Atmosphere to achieve certain results. I also added couple of additional lights to each setup to highlight and brighten up some areas but I tried to keep it simple and focus more on the main environment lighting. Next time I will experiment with fog cards and various visual effects!
