Module 21 getting familiar with timeline and animation setting e text

1. TIMELINE AND ANIMATION DR. ABHISHEK K
TimeLine and Animation Setting
In this session we are going to learn about
 Timeline and animation settings
Timeline plays an important role in the animation for 3d. Timeline is the
numeric representation of frames and is used for setting keys on every
keyable frame for creating smooth animation.
There is no video render output in any 3d software so have to render per
frame image sequence and later we can compose it in any 3d software. Here
we are going to study about render setting.
At first we have to set the scene the we have to call up our model into
the scene.

We have to transform the mesh into the scene. Where we can add extra key
frames into our scene. To smooth the key frames into the timeline we have
to use the graph editor.

This will allow you to smoothen up the key frames and also allow you to
modify or even manipulate the keyframes.

Image formating is very important to setting up the final output image into
the scene. So into the render setting you will have all the freedoms about
image formating and all.

We have to define the start and end frame into our timeline.

After getting done with all the settings for image sequence rendering we
can’t render it through normal render button but we have to go the
render>render tab>batch render for image sequence render.

We can check the very same animation in the viewport with the help of
playblast.
So finally we recieved the playblast which is present inside Maya software.
Playblast is a low resloution video sequence file which will allow you to see
the result of the animated thing. So it is a kind of rough video sequence file
and only used for examine purposes.
