Overview
SwitchLight Web has officially evolved into Beeble, a comprehensive AI platform dedicated to professional image and video relighting. Designed for VFX artists, compositors, and content creators, the platform utilizes advanced deep learning to manipulate the intrinsic properties of 2D media. It can accurately extract normal maps, depth information, and albedo (unshaded base color) from standard footage. This allows users to completely remove baked-in lighting from a subject and seamlessly re-illuminate them using custom HDRI environments or virtual studio lights. By migrating to the Beeble platform, users gain enhanced temporal consistency for video processing, improved edge-detection for automatic background removal, and a highly intuitive node-based or layer-based lighting workspace. Whether matching a green-screen actor to a complex CGI background, elevating e-commerce product photography, or prototyping virtual production shots, Beeble dramatically reduces the manual hours spent on rotoscoping, color matching, and complex 3D tracking.
