Thanks for the replies.

I know how to set up rendering the movie, but Maya isn't exporting properly. I double-checked my process with a few tutorials, including one on this site, and I don't think I'm doing anything wrong in the render settings. I can detail my render settings if you want, though I'm pretty sure that's not where I'm running into trouble.

The problem is that when Maya should be giving me 120 rendered frames from the batch rendering, I instead get only a single frame. Sometimes that frame isn't even rendered properly (it'll render only from the arms of the character down). If I render only a single frame it renders properly, though. I'm trying to figure out why it won't render all 120 frames so I can then just dump those into AfterEffects to make a video file.

Trying to render to .avi in Maya also ends in failure; I just get an *.avi.ng file that I can't use. I'd rather just make the video file myself, anyways.

Thanks again for the help!
