Made by a
Filmmaker,
For Filmmakers.

I'm Sam — filmmaker, Unreal instructor, and the person behind LightForge. I built it after watching talented filmmakers fight the same battle:

"Unreal can look like a feature film — but the lighting and render settings are buried, scattered, and built for games, not cinema."

LightForge fixes that. It puts cinematic lighting, grading, and rendering in one place — optimized for filmmaking, with pro layouts, gobos, LUTs, and one-click render presets — so you spend your time creating, not configuring.
