WHY MOOD & ATMOSPHERE
Light the feeling, not just the scene.
Building a mood by hand means juggling lights, world, fog, compositor, and camera. Mood & Atmosphere builds all of it around your subject, in one click.

■ SMART LIGHTING
It reads your scene first.
|
Indoors or outdoors Detects where the camera is and builds the right rig. |
Outdoors A key sun and a rim sun placed from the camera, with the sky as fill. |
|
Indoors Soft area lights inside the room, plus sunlight aimed through a window or doorway. |
Your subject Pick it with the eyedropper and the lights follow it. Rotate Lighting swings key and rim around it. |

■ STUDIO SETS AND PROPS
A styled set for every mood.
|
Infinity cove A seamless curve from floor to backdrop, sized to fill your camera. |
Props built from code Placed around your subject as the camera sees it, never in front of it. |
|
Styled by the mood Colors, floor gloss from matte to wet mirror, grit, glow and a blinds shadow. |
Your call Shuffle the props, set Backdrop Distance, or fade Mood Style to a plain grey cove. |

■ ATMOSPHERE AND EFFECTS
Weather that moves.
|
Volumetric fog Density scales with your scene, from tabletop to courtyard. Fog Drift makes it swirl. |
Lightning Short clusters of flashes that light up the sky, or the window indoors. |
|
Light flicker From a soft candle wobble to a failing fluorescent tube. |
Rain, snow and dust Built with geometry nodes, fading in and out with the mood. |
Every effect plays back and renders without the add-on installed.

★ STORY MODE
Tell the story with light.
|
Up to 12 beats Each beat is a mood that starts at a frame and blends in, or cuts. |
Timeline markers Beats show as Mood: markers. Drag them to retime the story. |
|
Everything follows Lights, fog, grade, effects, studio colors and props all blend. |
Stills too Turn off Animate Over Time and use Blend to mix two moods. |
