By using ambient-only omni lights and careful light projection, you can achieve results similar to what advanced automatic solutions could provide but at a fraction of the computational difficulty.<\/p>\n<p>Bringing the render time down below 20 seconds per frame is critical in making an animation for a client or for yourself.  No sense spending an entire weekend to render something that a little care and technique could have confined to a 3-hour stint.
