We will add light to the scene by choosing to use a parallel light and finding an excellent position for the light, choosing the second light, which is ambient light, choosing the third light, which is a spotlight, choosing the fourth light, which is a point light, and adding color.

3D Texturing
In this video, you will learn how to add a 3D rocky texture to the text that reacts to lighting or create a 3D look for the rock texture. You will learn how to change the text's mood, contrast, brightness, and complexity, which affects the look in the middle of the text.
