Time for action – move and rotate the light

This new light is kind of in the way, and a big chunk of our ball isn't properly lit. Let's fix that.

1. Ensure that the Directional Light is still selected. If you deselected it, click on the Directional Light label in the Hierarchy panel.

2. In the Inspector panel, change the light's position to move it up and out of the way. Enter 0 for the X position, 4 for the Y position, and -4 for the Z position. moving a directional light like this does not alter its intensity, but we're just making sure it's within reach in the Scene view.

3. Rotate the light so that it shines down on the objects. Enter a value of 44 for the light's X Rotation in the Inspector panel. The other two rotation values should be zero.

   

4. Now, the light is casting its sunny rays a bit more pleasantly on our Scene:
