Rules of Render

Ok, rendering is well under way. Some important points to note:

When animating the camera; make sure to keep the settings as close to these as possible:

- Cameras -
Camera height should be at 116m (C4D dimensions) while still, and while walking can 'bob' up to about 120-122m. Walking steps should take about 30 frames (1 second) when walking fast, or 40-45 frames for slower steps. Step should move a distance of about 50m - varying depending on the scene.

- Exporting -
In the C4D render settings; make sure to use the following:

Output Page:
Resolution - 756 x 480 px
Film Format - PAL, Quicktime.

Save Page:
Format - Quicktime Movie



Here is a link to the generic door opening shot, which we will use whenever possible to save animation/rendering time. This will be layered over the scenes in After FX.

I've cut stills out of the video footage of all the characters. Look at these when animating scenes to figure out angles and where the actors should be appearing. Some of Sean's shots are missing; I'll be updating this file asap to include stills of every shot.
