Roger 32 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Robert, Nice contest video, very well done. I'm sure I've got more than a few projects knocking around that would qualify for this. Here is to finishing the unfinished! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChuckGram 19 Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Question: Can this be an animation or strictly just an image? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We have had montages made of several separately rendered images with the frame. That's OK. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mechadelphia 5 Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 Can we use our paint programs for compositing separate finished render passes or does this have to be a single render out of A:M? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mechadelphia 5 Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 This link provides a good explanation of the concept: http://members.iinet.net.au/~multispud22/lahl/tutorials/Multipass/Multipass-1.htm Basically, isolate and render separate passes for certain elements in A:M then combine them separately in a program like Photoshop. This can be done in A:M but I find it easier to do in a dedicated compositiing of image editing appliccation. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
