Why 3D Animated Video is Made from Frames, or
multiple 3D Renderings
Most people have made a small animated cartoon by drawing
stick figures on the bottom of notbook pages and fliping
them over to see a simple animation. Video that you see
anywhere in the world is just like that - a series of images
being played back quickly - normally between 24 and 30
frames per second depending on where you are and what you
are watching.
This means that a 3D animation needs
to be compromised of the same thing, which amounts to multiple
3D renderings for each one
second of video footage. It can take a lot of time to render each
frame so we use a "render
farm" to help the process
along.
