Title: Question about Animation
Post by: mary032964 on September 04, 2013, 11:36:18 PM
I am trying to nice clear and sharp frames for my animation,, so I am trying to figure out the best settings for calculation. None of the settings I  try seem to work they I want them to. I used Mandelbulb 3D.

Thanks for any help
Mary

What seems to be the problem? Noisy images?

Hi Mary   O0

Noisy images in Mandelbulb software is tricky to cure - and each technique depends upon what program you are using!  (You didn't say, and this is in a general section of the forum, so there are many possibilities)

One trick that works regardless of the program is to render at 2 or 3 times the resolution you want, and reduce the images in editing.  This has the effect of "brute force anti-aliasing" and can be quicker than setting the render parameters to remove the noise, depending on the formulas and software in use - of course   :alien:

Can you give some more information?

Hope that helps.

Hi,
it depends strongly on the formula combinations whether noise appears or not, and what the best methods are to reduce it.
You can pm me the text parameters of a keyframe if you like and i will try to get settings for a good compromise of speed and image quality.
Cheers
