Andre Barbosa - Animation Test (It's a Farm Lodge project)
-
Hello people! This is a project I've been working on for my family's farm. I decided to make a quick animation to show them what the lodge will be like. Aprox. 40 secs of vĂdeo at 800x450 and 15 fps. Took SketchUp about 25 minutes do process the animation. Post editing made in Camtasia Studio 7. (And I hope you dont mind the music, its Brazilian folk music, OLD folk music hahaha).
Here is the link to the video on YouTube, and a quick snapshot of the final model. I'm looking forward to opinions so I can get better at this! See you!

The first thing I would suggest is turning on shadows. It really makes a difference and doesn't really take that much longer to render.
Well, a little while longer. But it's worth it.

Hello! I tried with the shadows on, and I knows it makes a BIG difference, buy those trees are really heavy on the drawing and their shadows are even heavier! With shadows on the render time wen from 30 minutes (no shadows) to aprox 20 hours (with shadows). It was just insane. I could waot that time, but knowing SketchUp the chances the program or my pc would crash during the process were too high.
ps: I got a i7-860, 6 gb ddr 3 1333 mhz and a GTX 260.
(seriously, I just cant explain why with shadows it would take SO MUCH LONGER. hehehe)
Thx for the coments anyway! See you

Hmmm, that's interesting. You have plenty of horsepower.
Are you still running XP and using SU 6?
