WEBVTT 00:00.300 --> 00:05.640 Hello, we have the Firefly's rendered, we can go back and turn on the visibility for the main scene 00:06.030 --> 00:11.940 and make this unbendable so it'll take a second while it's thinking to reload all the textures and everything. 00:12.600 --> 00:18.570 But, yeah, we can turn off the render section of this. 00:19.490 --> 00:24.380 And then we can turn on the render section of the main scene, so now we can just kind of leave this 00:24.380 --> 00:33.710 behind because what we can do now is just go to the alembic cache of the Firefly's and we can just hide 00:33.710 --> 00:35.210 it in our main scene. 00:35.570 --> 00:37.460 So we're not rendering that at all. 00:37.850 --> 00:43.310 Let's take a look at what our render currently looks like in the Arnold rendered view. 00:44.000 --> 00:45.050 So hit play here. 00:50.430 --> 00:56.790 So we can see that the motion blur that we turned on in the render settings has significantly slowed 00:56.790 --> 00:58.020 down my render times. 00:58.440 --> 01:05.390 And so we need to keep that in mind if we want to have motion blur to smooth out the render. 01:06.060 --> 01:12.360 But I do want to check the frames that are at the height of his jump because I want to be able to read 01:12.360 --> 01:14.730 his face at that at that point. 01:15.070 --> 01:18.270 So I want to make sure the motion blur isn't too much for those frames. 01:18.270 --> 01:20.250 So I'm going to escape out of this and check that. 01:22.030 --> 01:25.840 So a couple of things to note here, it does look like the motion blur is a little too much. 01:26.320 --> 01:32.080 The other thing, of course, is it looks like he's farting for not to be crude about it. 01:32.080 --> 01:40.390 But, you know, this is something, you know, the best laid plans kind of a thing like you can't really 01:40.390 --> 01:41.370 plan for this stuff. 01:41.380 --> 01:47.860 And so what I would do is go back through and rehash this and adjust the simulation so that it didn't 01:47.860 --> 01:53.950 line up with this for the the thumbnail for this course, I was going to use this image. 01:54.190 --> 01:55.210 I'm still going to use it. 01:55.210 --> 02:00.160 But instead of spending the time to go back through and resume everything, I'm just going to go into 02:00.160 --> 02:01.330 Photoshop and take this out. 02:01.340 --> 02:07.930 So, yeah, I just know that if I was to actually use this animation for a short film or something, 02:07.930 --> 02:13.570 I would make sure that this was cleaner and that I took this out in the render and not in Photoshop. 02:14.020 --> 02:18.130 But so the last thing we can do is set up our elves. 02:18.340 --> 02:21.250 And also let's just look at the motion blur for one second. 02:22.750 --> 02:26.230 We can, you know, a couple of different things we could do. 02:26.680 --> 02:37.090 We could render these few frames without the motion blur on so I could just disable it and then we could 02:37.090 --> 02:46.300 and compositing blend the non motion, blurred frames on top of the motion, blurred frames, and so 02:46.300 --> 02:49.290 that we would have more clarity in this moment. 02:49.630 --> 02:50.770 So that's one option. 02:51.850 --> 02:56.340 The other thing we need to do is to add the elves here. 02:56.710 --> 03:02.950 So like we've talked about before, we can use these built-In elves. 03:03.310 --> 03:06.460 And the main one I usually use is the ZF pass. 03:07.030 --> 03:11.410 And we can also use, you know, other ones. 03:11.410 --> 03:13.090 But that's mainly it for me. 03:13.100 --> 03:18.160 I'm not trying to get too fancy on compositing here, especially for the effects. 03:18.190 --> 03:21.090 Of course, this is I want to keep the focus on the effects. 03:21.460 --> 03:29.710 So basically we've created this this nice render and I'm going to leave motion blur off for now and 03:29.710 --> 03:34.090 I might go back through and rewrite it with motion blur and then in compositing adjust that. 03:34.430 --> 03:45.880 The other thing I wanted to look at was to see how much we could increase this, the distribution of 03:45.880 --> 03:46.870 the of the grass. 03:47.170 --> 03:52.030 So I'm going to save this very quickly, just in case 03:54.670 --> 03:59.650 Maya wants to crash and I do way too many pieces of grass. 04:00.150 --> 04:02.020 I say this as a work in progress. 04:02.380 --> 04:08.110 And then I'm going to go back to the MASH Ed here, go to to distribute. 04:08.110 --> 04:11.170 And I'm going to increase this quite a bit. 04:11.170 --> 04:19.360 I'm going to increase this and then see how well it handles it and what the viewport update looks like 04:19.360 --> 04:19.750 here. 04:22.440 --> 04:28.710 So I think that does look better, but, you know, I just I just really want this to look pretty thick, 04:29.040 --> 04:33.180 so I'm going to double that and see where that gets me. 04:34.630 --> 04:37.060 So I'm just going to render preview that little area. 04:38.310 --> 04:40.020 And see if it's a significant. 04:40.980 --> 04:46.590 Increase in render time, and if it really adds a lot to the scene, if not, I might just turn off 04:46.590 --> 04:49.040 the grass and leave that for another time. 04:49.590 --> 04:55.860 But in general, you know, you have everything that you need to render the scene out now and all the 04:55.860 --> 04:57.990 information to do the dynamics. 04:58.500 --> 05:03.570 So, yeah, just real quickly, we can just now go to the ORENDER settings and change the name up here. 05:04.230 --> 05:12.840 We just need to call this the main scene and we're ready to render I'm going to use the render cam and 05:12.840 --> 05:13.700 everything is good to go. 05:14.220 --> 05:16.200 So I did just want to have a couple of final thoughts. 05:16.200 --> 05:20.040 Just thinking you it's amazing you've made it this far in the course. 05:20.340 --> 05:22.380 I don't know if I've ever finished a course this long. 05:22.380 --> 05:24.330 It's a huge accomplishment that you've done this. 05:24.660 --> 05:28.090 And I'm really impressed that you've made it this far. 05:28.350 --> 05:30.810 Please consider giving it a positive rating. 05:30.810 --> 05:37.710 If you like the course, it'll help me make more courses and it'll help other students find the course. 05:38.250 --> 05:41.160 And I hope you really enjoyed this. 05:41.160 --> 05:45.390 And I look forward to seeing what you create from what you've learned here. 05:45.870 --> 05:50.490 And yeah, this is what I've been working on for the last seven months of my life. 05:50.790 --> 05:52.860 It's taken seven months to make this course. 05:52.860 --> 05:54.690 So I hope you appreciate it. 05:54.700 --> 05:55.060 I know. 05:55.080 --> 05:56.370 I appreciate you taking it. 05:56.700 --> 05:57.930 And thank you so much. 05:57.930 --> 06:01.080 And I look forward to seeing you in my other courses. 06:01.260 --> 06:01.710 Thank you.
