This image was created for the last CGI automotive rendering contest.

In CGI, one essential key is lighting

The lighting of a scene can change everything. It has an influence on the whole scene technically but also artistically. It impacts the mood and the materials overall.

So on this one, I chose a sunset. It brings nice warm colors and this is exactly what I was looking for. I wanted warm shades to go along with the red paint of the car.

Red suits easily a sports car, it's a strong color filled of emotions and passion.
And that's exactly the purpose of a sports car: feel.
To contrast with this natural soft lighting source that is the sun, the rear is lighted with a flash and the tail lights are on.

Then, to bring dynamism and strength, the camera is placed on the ground level as a hero shot but also with an angle, creating a diagonale as a strong line in my image.

The car is one with the road.
