Next, test the spotlight and use a spotlight to illuminate it from the entrance. Everyone should have seen the spotlight on the stage. When the light is shining, you can see the light flowing under the light. This is to achieve this effect. As the image shown above, we need to increase the density and visibility of the scattering medium material, and set the color of the spotlight to yellow. At this time, the smoke generated by the scattering medium will also be affected by the spotlight and turn yellow. Then look at the rendered shadow channel map. As the picture shown below,
