I know this might sound like a very stupid question but how do you set up a scene for animation? Obviously you need the cameras paths etc but what are the setting steps? I can't find any tutorials on this - some help would be appreciated :)
Many thanks,

OMG...
You have some animations in your portfolio...I don´t understand your question!
-
I know they are done with a different renderer!
For instance when you have moving objects in the scene you want to animation you usually have to calculate the light cache for each frame and then once this is done then the rendering of each frame can be done via backburner.
Just some guidance would be good :)
-
Yeah ok!
With corona, I think you don't need to pre-calculate, you limit the number of passes and that's it!
-
Well that does sound easy!
If you want to render the animation using render nodes then do you just tick 'distributed rendering'? Usually when it's done through backburner the frames are loaded and then each render node works through the frames one by one.
With the distributed rendering in corona do all the render nodes work on each frame and then move to the next frame (in essence loading the scene across the network for each frame)?
-
You send the job to backburner, as vray, as mentalray, whatever, the only thing is to limit the number of passes that determines the quality you need... :)
-
Jesus that makes Vray sounds like the most complicated way of rendering anything ever! Well done corona!
Thank you for your help; all sorted now! :)
