IMAGE-BASED LIGHTING
Something to keep in mind is that the end result of the setup is actually a single HDRI, which gets baked based on the lights you set up. This can be applied to a light dome or sky object, or simply use the connection plugins for the easiest of workflows.
The premise is a simple one, in that all you need to do is load a model into HDR Light Studio and then use a set of simple-to-use tools to add, position, and tweak assorted lights and properties.
