Rocky Heights Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 How do we render the background as one color besides black? We want to edit our cat into a film so it is dancing with a live person. Our teacher can't figure it out when he is supposed to help us! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can set the background color in the properties window for the camera. Make sure the "alpha buffer" is turned OFF in your render properties. However, rendering a CG character on a colored background to Chroma key it later is a last choice. Better to render your character with the alpha buffer ON and have your compositing software use the alpha channel. There's a tut out ther with a character walking on a sidewlk that shows how to do it. Maybe someone can pop in witht the link. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
