  Getting Rid of Grainy Renders

  Posted by Richard Windsor on February 4, 2014 at 8:34 pm

  Something that I come across often is that I am getting some renders that come out grainy in the shadows or even sometimes all over the image. What exactly is causing this and is there an easy way to correct it? I am doing a animation with some candys falling and they are very grainy. Any Suggestions? I have attached what it looks like.

  Need more information. Are you using GI? If so, QMC mode? Area shadows? HDRI background? Any noise in the textures?

  The grain is probably coming the AO. Try increasing the maximum samples and/or accuracy.
