Blender Filmic Adventures

Well I followed the instructions and installed the Filmic add-on. https://github.com/sobotka/filmic-blender

I've been dabbling with the Filmic settings for a few weeks now so Blender Guru's tutorial on the subject was very timely, and clarified many issues (https://youtu.be/m9AT7H4GGrA).

I'm not yet completely convinced by it as while it may be more technically accurate, and have (sort-of) higher apparent dynamic range, I'm finding colour setup to be more challenging with Filmic enabled.

I will continue with it however and as I get more familiar with the necessary default lamp settings etc it will hopefully become easier.

This was the first scene I published using Filmic colour settings.
