  • What to see and not see in a render

    Posted by Kurisuta Vd wilk on January 25, 2013 at 4:51 pm

    Hello !

    My scene is like this : An object, surrounded by soft-boxes, lights and a bended floor.
    For my render I need the softboxes, lights and the floor to do their work, but I do not want to see them in my render.
    I need to see only the object, as I need my object with a Alpha channel to render.

    Is there a possibility that the surrounded objects do their work for the lighting but to disable their own visibility in the render ?

    Yes, just give the objects a compositing tag and uncheck “seen by camera” in the tag’s options.
