Partial transcription of the video

“The Castle I'm not too happy with this part but let's go with this for now. I might also need to fix this a bit more because the perspective doesn't look too great. Let's grab all these layers.

Maybe I'll move the layer here to my Sky layer. I don't know if I moved it by mistake, or it's been like this since the beginning, but I'll move it up a bit and fix that. I'm pretty happy with where the light is....”
