Rendering

After I has animated all the scenes, added the effects and tweaked I lighting, I was ready to render.

I rendered each one of my shots in 1280 by 720 resolution to ensure the video was widescreen and good quality. I hoped this would make the animation look more 'professional'.
I also rendered each one of my frames as a bitmap. I found that doing this kept the quality of the video as high as possible.


I was very happy with the quality of my renders. Each frame took between 10 seconds and two minutes to render. This was because of the level of bump I used, the number of smooths on the model and the Ray Traced shadows.
