Lighting Presets

Glossi comes with a library of professional lighting presets to help you get started quickly. You can select from a range of presets designed by the Glossi team to get started, or you can create you own to use across projects.

Light presets in Glossi are complete lighting setups that can be applied with a single click.

They include:

• All lights and their properties (intensity, color, size)

• Light positions and targeting

• Environment lighting settings

• Sun light configuration

Using presets saves significant setup time and ensures consistency across your product catalog. Instead of recreating lighting from scratch for each product, presets allow you to apply professional lighting instantly.

To be as flexible and useful as possible, Glossi lighting presets automatically scale and adapt to your product size, making them work effectively across different product types.

This adaptive behavior means:

• Light distances adjust based on product dimensions

• Shadow quality remains consistent regardless of scale

• Appropriate light intensity is maintained for different-sized products

This automatic scaling ensures that lighting presets work equally well for small accessories and large furniture pieces without manual adjustment.

Using Lighting Presets

Glossi offers ready-made lighting presets that deliver professional results immediately:

1. Go to the "This Scene" tab on the left-hand panel

2. Find "Lights" at the top of your light list (under your backdrop settings)

3. Click "Select" to open the Preset panel

4. Choose from Glossi-made presets or your saved custom presets

5. Apply the preset to instantly transform your scene's lighting

Presets serve as excellent starting points for your projects. Once applied, you can still adjust individual lights to fine-tune the result for your specific product.

Creating Custom Presets

Once you've crafted the perfect lighting setup, save it for future use:

1. Arrange and adjust lights to achieve your desired look

2. Click "Create Preset" in the Lighting panel

3. Name your preset descriptively (e.g., "C&B Table Lighting")

4. Your preset will be available for future use across all projects

This "create once, use forever" approach dramatically increases efficiency across your product visualization workflow. Custom presets ensure your brand's distinctive lighting style remains consistent across your entire product catalog

Workflow Tips:

Lighting consistency is particularly important for enterprise users managing large product catalogs:

• Develop presets that match your existing product photography standards

• Create documentation explaining when to use specific presets

• Establish a review process for new preset development

• Save variations of successful presets for different product categories

• Train team members on preset selection guidelines (what is flexible, what's not)

For enterprise customers, we can develop specific presets that closely match your current product photography standards, ensuring visual consistency between traditional photography and 3D visualization
