Rendering With the FileOut Node
When you’ve finished your composite, you can set up
one or more sections of your script to be rendered using
FileOut nodes. This chapter covers how to render scripts
from the Shake interface, from the command line, or by
using Apple Qmaster.
Attaching FileOut Nodes Prior to Rendering
After you’ve finished creating the necessary effect in Shake, you export your finished
shot by attaching a FileOut node to the section of the node tree that you want to write
to disk. You can attach an unlimited number of FileOut nodes anywhere along a node
tree, which allows you to simultaneously output different sections of your composite at
a variety of different resolutions, bit depths, or color spaces.
In the following example, three FileOut nodes have been added to different points in
the node tree. The top two FileOut nodes will output each half of the composite
individually, while the bottommost FileOut node will produce the combined results of
the entire composite.
