Title: Corona Light Mix Video Save
Post by: milkpack on 2016-12-01, 12:38:29

Hello, is there any way (maybe script) to save an image sequence with lightmix parameters changing? Screencapture is not a good idea because it has a limited resolution.

For example: i need to make a small video with a smooth light change in apartment. I can do it manually with change-save-change-save-change-save-etc, but its a very long story.

Light works additive.

If you do everything as a proper 32bit linear workflow, you can export the light pass as image sequence, compositive with ADD mode ontop and it will look exactly the same as im corona. Only problem is Postprocessing done by corona VFB, as you will miss out on that.
It is the same thing the light kixer does, only with a bit more hassle.

Best way to animate at present is indeed to do the animation in post - save out each LightSelect pass then put them back together in (say) Fusion (because it's free) and animate the blending of the different LightSelects there.
