Changing Render Background Colour
I want to animate a character, but without any background...when I do my batch render, the background defaults to black.
How can I change the background colour...and can you use a gradient? Any help will be appreciated. |
to change background colour
look through that camera (camera to be rendered) and go view ->camera attribute editor scroll down to environment and chose ur colour or image hope this helps |
do it afterwards in post. There's no point in making your renderer calculate the picture as well when you can just add it afterwards at no extra rendering cost (plus you can easily change the background without re-rendering)

Thanks pbman
That was the answer...don't know why I couldn't find it...anyway, works perfectly.
Cheers |
Ooops
Okay...wasn't the answer...when I render one frame, the background is the colour I chose...but when I batch render, it is still black...any ideas?

read my post again... :rolleyes: :headbang:

To Pure Morning
I got it figured out...turns out I didn't render the right camera...geesh!
Now...as to what you are saying...I am afraid I am not quite understanding. How do you add things in post production? My knowledge goes as far as a batch render...I am not even sure how to render in layers...then get the layers back together...hahaha I am keeping it rather simple at the moment, kind of new to all of this. Any info, or tutorials you may have that would help, would be appreciated. |
Think alan means via the Alpha channel or if not via a quick chroma keying using acompositing package like afer effects of photoshop.
If you want to try it render an image with an alpha channel and look at it using Photoshop |
i think he means just render the scene black background open it in Adobe and just paint in a new background...
