preview render time
Rendering preview:
Hi, I’m Wondering if people have a savvy trick to reducing render time for preview. I’m using heavy processing filters like magic bullet and g nattress to generate specific looks. A lot of the time I want to just preview it (in motion, not just a still) to see if that is the specific look I want. And if not tweak a little more. A way that I have found to get around this is by reducing the render in the sequence settings tab, to 33 %. Render it out, take a look at it and if I like it re render. I’ve realized that when copying my files to a new sequence that is 100 %, the red render bar doesn’t show up. It takes the file as is. Problematic cause I don’t want the crappy render. So What I do is, instead of making a new sequence, I keep my original sequence that’s set for 33% and change it to 100%. No re render needed, which I find strange. Hence, I go to the render manager, and delete the render files for that particular preview sequence. Double check that my preview sequence (that I now want to do a full render) is at 100%, and re-render. Is this the best way to shave of preview render time? Does anyone have tips for this?
Thanks

Set an IN and an OUT very close together then click “Render In to Out” (Apple-R).

I have used that, but even then, it’s not a long enough clip. Have you tried the 33%? Is this a right way to correct render time?
thanks,
