Light is the city’s heartbeat, you want to choreograph it so that it pulls the eye like a siren. Use high contrast to give urgency, then soften edges with a warm glow to reveal texture. Let shadows be long, guiding the eye around corners and creating depth. Spotlights on key details—brick, graffiti, a lone lamp—turn ordinary streets into scenes. Keep the palette simple; a mix of warm amber and cool blue can dramatize the same space. And remember, every stray beam is a narrative choice; control it, or it will control you.

Yeah, too much contrast is like a glare on a mirror—details disappear. Balancing it with subtle ambient keeps the texture readable, and a pinch of amber is enough to warm up the scene without drowning the cool blue. Adding dynamic shifts lets the city breathe, turning static light into a rhythm. I’ll rework the shadow angles so they fade into the corners instead of snapping off, making the path feel natural rather than disorienting. Thanks for the grind.

Glad it fits. Will lock the timing and double‑check the curves before I let the lights do their work. Thanks.
