Whitespace File

Just thought I'd put this file out in case someone is interested. Basically it's a quick project that is meant to be copied into your library\object folder. Then you can access it under objects->Object Library. What does it do? Well it sets up a basic 3 point lighting rig with colour controls and a flat environment with a color setting. The environment consists of floor, sky, and background objects with "use as background" compositing tags. So with this setup the object you are currently working on will be shown in a "whitespace" scene - where it's just your object and a single colour background that accepts shadows. There are colour and scale settings (click on the Xpresso tag in the Whitespace null object - there's a bunch of user data there) You can also pick direct or spot light types.

I hope this is useful for someone!

Here's The File (Cinema 4D R8.5 Project file).

Update 2004/05/18: I fixed up the file, removing the extra material and making the distant light set actually distant lights :)
