Default New Video Request

I dont know if this is the correct place for this post ?

Is it possible for you guys to do a tutorial video on Multi Pass rendering. It would be nice to see the process and setup of this from start to finish especialy the preperation of the surfaces and the compositing in Photoshop (or other After FX)

Sorry to be thick but what the advantages of multi-pass -rendering and how much more render does it take?

Thanx

john

From my understanding of Multipass rendering the actual setup process is slower than a single pass render but the advantage is not having to re-render the entire animation again just because a single aspect such as Specularity is incorrect.

In effect you render out Specular / Shadow / Colour (Beuty) passes and possibly other then combine them in an external application.
