Hi, I've rendered a scene from studio, and now I have been asked to animate a few cameras in the scene. Does anyone know of a script or anything I can use to export individual cameras as frames (scenes) from studio so that I can network render them.

Thanks
Christine

There is no animation support in Studio, but you can choose which camera in the scene to render when you add a job with network rendering.

That's what I thought. Had to ask though just in case.

So if I want to render a sequence over a network, and need the frames in a folder to do so, is the only way to save them out one at a time? If I select the camera when I network render I would have to load the scene manually for each frame and then select the next camera? is that right?

But do you have one camera per frame of animation of a moving camera? I don't understand what the animation movement is. Studio is really not the best to handle these situations - with so many Maxwell plugins, taking the Studio route is not the most productive in my opinion.

I would also suggest to do the animation in C4D or any other software dedicated for this purpose
and do the render thru the plug in..

Hi Christine, dont know if its too late to help, but C4D (with a maxwell plugin) can open mxs files - its good to run an optimization filter across all the objects in case the meshes have become individual triangles, because this can happen.

I expect 3dmax (Nicos?) can open mxs files, I'm not sure.
