DISCREPANCIES GALORE

I have come to realised I really really hate fixing up renders, when there’s just the little things that are different. Spent the pass week fixing up little things. Oh-so-annoying little things.

Things like:

  • shadows that suddenly change in the scene because I unlinked a light and forgot to link it back when I had to render the rest of the scene,
  • little changes in the specular or diffuse or shadow, and it would take me hours to figure out what was different from the original to the newly rendered batch
  • particles that suddently stopped moving in a batch render (I had to rerender the end 20 frames one by one of leg particles because every subsequent frame after the first one would render exactly the same!)
  • the very last bit where the door opens: the door and the mannequin would not line up, too many hours it took to fix that
  • backgrounds that would suddenly move quicker than the objects, even when it is set to the RIGHT frame rate and I hadn’t changed the camera at all
  • so on and so forth…
  • The only thing that’s worse than a bad render, is rerendering said render more than once. BUT. IT’S. DONE.
