VIDEO RENDERING

Just like rendering images, video rendering in Max allows you to choose the dimension. However, the main difference between rendering images and videos is the number of frames. For Max to render your scene as video, it renders the sequence of images (frames) and compiles it as a video file.

Figure 6-2. Rendering a video file.

Try This!

1. Open the lighting.max from http://www.mediafire.com/?2pathhocnwd4wy8.

2. Make sure that the Camera01 is active for rendering. Go to Rendering menu and choose Render.

3. In the ‘Common Parameters’ roll-out, click on the ‘Range:’. Don’t forget to click the 800x600 button for a larger output.

4. Scroll-down and check the Save File and click on the Files button.

5. In the Render Output File, choose the location where you want to save the video file. Rename the file appropriately and choose AVI as its Save as type file.

6. Click on the Save button. A window will appear for the first time you render a video file. Just leave the default settings and click on the OK button. Just wait for Max to finish rendering all of the frames and you can now view your video file.
