Hello everybody, I am going to be rendering an image sequence soon and bringing it into after effects. So my question is, using blender cycles what is a good sample render setting for video? Thanks
How many samples? It completely depends. What is more important to you speed or look? If it is not a commercial work or you are not using a lot of reflections and glossiness then 100-200 samples can work. Same animation for commercial work might be 500 samples.
Anyway, I would start with 100 samples at various points in the animation. If that looks “good enough” then you are done. If not, then 200 samples. Good enough? 300… And so on…
Thank you for the help. 500 samples worked just fine.
