Description
This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to select suitable rendering applications and prepare and optimise rendering for 3-D modelling, animation and game development.It applies to individuals who support the design, development and programming of basic digital games as part of a larger development team.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1. Analyse the rendering requirements
  • 1.1 Identify the equipment and media required for the project
  • 1.2 Identify the features of the rendering software packages used in the film and games industries
  • 1.3 Analyse the design brief, or other reference sources, to plan and determine the rendering requirements
2. Select a suitable rendering application to achieve desired appearance
  • 2.1 Select the rendering software with the capability to achieve the desired effects within the timeframe and budget
  • 2.2 Confirm that the selection is according to the brief, system limitations and requirements
3. Prepare rendering application for desired outcome
  • 3.1 Select and apply the appropriate image resolutions, image aspect ratio, and pixel ratio
  • 3.2 Adjust the renderer attributes to obtain desired anti-aliasing
  • 3.3 Adjust the renderer attributes to obtain other desired visual effects
4. Check the render integrity and quality
  • 4.1 Refine the render integrity
  • 4.2 Re-link any missing images and textures
  • 4.3 Test the render times for optimising process
  • 4.4 Test the alpha channels and opacity matts
  • 4.5 Test the render layers and passes
5. Optimise the images for render processes
  • 5.1 Complete pre-rendering optimisation tasks
  • 5.2 Adjust and refine renderer attributes to optimise render times
  • 5.3 Select the appropriate file format for output, according to the brief
  • 5.4 Select the appropriate filenames and output destinations
6. Render the images and save files appropriately
  • 6.1 Undertake the final rendering processes
  • 6.2 Store or archive the files
  • 6.3 Review the completed render to ensure compliance with the system and the brief
  • 6.4 Confirm the rendering with the relevant personnel
