Hey guys, and welcome back to the locally wolf class. In this lesson, we're going to go through how to create a background so that we can have something ready to render. So the first thing I'm going to do is tidy this up. So I'm going to group all these elements together. So click, Shift, click, Alt G, and then they'll create a group and I'm going to call this group wealth. Now I'm going to click on the blue cube, create a plane and that wants to make this plane a little bit bigger.
So two thirds whoops 2000 just zoom out here a little bit. 2000 by 2000 and this will be our floor for the wolf to stand on. Just going around and see what that looks like. Let's make it a little bit bigger. Let's try 4000 By 4000 and now I'm going to select the moth and I'm going to bring it and move it on top of the plane here like so. So it looks like it's standing on something now.
Okay. So once you're happy with the position of the wolf and the floor, go down here, click Create and click on new material. Double click on the new material, and we're going to go here and texture where the arrow is. And we're going to see if we can find a gradient which is down here. Double click on the gradient. And here you can choose the different colors you want your Gradient to be.
So in this case, we're just going to click and choose a dark grey and the second Color, I'm going to choose a full black. So you can see the gradient goes from gray to black. And then here you can choose the type of gradients. So we're going to go for a circular gradient. Click after that, I'm going to click and drag that gradient onto the plane like so. Once you've done that, let's go to so I'm just going to select the plane, and then I'm going to double click on the material here.
Click on basic there. In fact, don't double click just click single click on material and then under projection you want frontal and then left click on the plane and you want compositing and then You want to click compositing background and then hold the cube shape here. Fact, under the under here where you can see floor, you want to click on black, you want to click on background. I'm just going to delete the form tag from the plane, and then clicking on the material here. I'm going to duplicate that material and click and drag it into our background. So once you click on render picture to viewer, you should see that's Pindar wolf.
We have a nice gray circular gradients. So that's it for this lesson. In the next lesson, we'll be going through how to create some lighting for the peace. See you guys there.
