Hey everyone,
I'm a student and this is my first time using 3ds max. I am working on a light concert for a family project that has around 6000 frames. This is the last 4 minutes of a 32 minute video, the rest of which hasn't been started (no animation, Adobe AE only) and needs to be finished by Dec 18th.
I am rendering out (default scanline renderer) to 1280x720 and used to be getting 1 minute/frame with jpg, quality=75 (100 hours to render). Now I'm getting 3 minutes/frame (300 hours to render).
I've been rendering out to jpg so far, but will I get quicker render times with TIFF, TGA, or PNG file formats since they don't have to be compressed?
Anything you can give would be great. Thanks!
