Time	Narration
00:05	Welcome to the series of Blender tutorials.
00:09	This tutorial is about the Properties window in Blender 2.59.
00:16	This script has been contributed by Sneha Deorukhkar and Bhanu Prakash and edited by Monisha Banerjee.
00:29	After watching this tutorial, we shall learn- what is the Properties window;
00:35	what is the Render panel in the Properties window;
00:39	what are the various settings in the Render panel of the Properties window.
00:45	I assume that you know the basic elements of the Blender interface.
00:50	If not then please refer to our earlier tutorial - Basic Description of the Blender Interface.
00:58	The Properties window contains various panels. It is located on the right hand side of our screen.
01:08	At the top of the 'Properties window', there is a row of icons .
01:14	These icons represent the different panels which come under the Properties section-
01:21	Render, Scene, World, Object, etc.
01:30	These panels contain various settings which are very useful while working in Blender.
01:37	We must resize our 'Properties window' for better viewing and understanding.
01:43	Left-click the left edge of the 'Properties window', hold and drag to the left.
01:52	We can see the options in the 'Properties window' more clearly now.
01:59	To learn how to resize the Blender windows, see our tutorial - How to Change Window Types in Blender.
02:12	Render is the first panel in the 'Properties Window'.
02:16	By default, it gets displayed on the 'Blender Interface' whenever we open Blender.
02:23	The settings in this panel are used to create the final output of the animation.
02:31	Image is used to render a single frame image of the active camera view.
02:39	Left click Image . For keyboard shortcut, press F12.
02:48	The active camera view is rendered as a single frame image.
02:55	Press Esc on your keyboard to return to the 3D-view.
03:03	Animation is used to render an entire range of frames or an image sequence and create a movie file.
03:13	By default, the Frame Range is 1 to 250 on the timeline.
03:22	Left click Animation. The entire frame range from frame 1 to frame 250 is getting rendered.
03:39	Press Esc to stop the render progress.
03:43	Press Esc to return to the 3D-view.
03:48	Go to Display in the Render panel.
03:52	Display helps us choose how to view the render progress on the screen.
03:58	By default, the display is in Image Editor mode. Let me demonstrate.
04:05	Press F12 to render the 'active camera-view'.
04:09	The Render Display appears as the UV/Image Editor.
04:15	The 3D-view changes to the UV/Image Editor every time we render the active camera view.
04:22	To learn about the UV/Image Editor, see the tutorial- Types of windows - UV/Image Editor.
04:31	Press Esc to return to the 3D-view.
04:36	Go to Display in the Render panel. Left click Image Editor.
04:44	This drop-down menu shows a list of render display options.
04:51	Left click to select Full Screen.
04:55	Press F12 to render the 'active camera view'.
05:01	Now, the entire Blender screen gets replaced by the UV/Image editor.
05:09	Press Esc to exit the full screen render mode and return to the Blender workspace.
05:16	Go to Display in the Render panel. Left click Full Screen. Select New Window from the list.
05:28	Press F12 to render the active camera view.
05:31	Now, the 'Render Display' appears as a new window over the 'Blender Workspace'.
05:39	You will find this very useful when rendering previews of your animation.
05:44	We shall see how to do this in later tutorials.
05:50	Close the 'Render Display' window.
05:55	Go to Display in the Render panel. Left click New Window.
06:01	Left click to select Image editor mode. The display is in Image Editor mode.
06:08	Next setting we shall see is Dimensions. Here we can customize the various render presets depending on our required output.
06:20	Left Click Render Presets. A drop-down menu appears.
06:27	Here is a list of all major render presets- DVCPRO, HDTV, NTSC, PAL etc.
06:41	For now, we shall leave these aside and proceed to the Render Dimension settings.
06:49	Resolution is the width and height of the 'Render Display' and the active Camera view.
06:56	By Default, in Blender 2.59, the resolution is 1920 by 1080 pixels.
07:09	50% is the percentage scale of the 'Render resolution'.
07:14	That means only 50% of the actual resolution will be rendered. Let me explain.
07:22	Press F12 to render the active camera view. This is the default render resolution.
07:29	It is only half or 50% of the actual resolution.
07:35	Close the render display window .
07:40	Left click and hold 50%, under Resolution, in the Render Panel and drag to the right.
07:50	The percentage changes to 100%. Another way to change the percentage is -
08:00	left click 100%. Now, type 100 on the keyboard and press Enter.
08:12	Press F12 to render the active camera view.
08:18	Here is a full 100% resolution render of 1920 by 1080 pixels.
08:27	Close the render display window. Now, I want to change the resolution to 720 by 576 pixels.
08:38	Left click 1920. Type 720 on your keyboard and press Enter.
08:49	Again, left click 1080. Type 576 on your keyboard and press Enter.
09:00	Press F12 to render the active camera view.
09:07	Here is a full 100% resolution render of 720 by 576 pixels.
09:16	Close the render display window.
09:21	Go to Frame Range under Dimensions in the Render panel.
09:26	Frame Range determines the renderable animation length for your movie.
09:33	As I said before, by default, the frame range is 1 to 250.
09:39	Left click Start 1. Type 0 on your keyboard and press enter.
09:51	This is the starting frame or first frame of our animation length.
09:57	Left click End 250. Type 100 on your keyboard and press Enter.
10:08	This is the ending frame or last frame of our animation length.
10:16	So, now we have a new frame range for our animation.
10:22	Go to Timeline, below the 3D-view.
10:26	Notice how the timeline display has changed now because we changed the Frame range in the Render panel.
10:35	To learn about the Timeline window, see the tutorial: Types of Windows - Timeline.
10:45	Go to Aspect Ratio under Dimensions in the Render Panel.
10:53	Notice that when we changed the resolution, the aspect ratio changed as well.
11:01	Frame rate determines the number of frames animating in one second in our movie.
11:09	By default, it is 24 fps or frames per second.
11:16	Left click 24 fps. A drop-down menu appears.
11:25	Here is a list of all major frame rates used while making an animation movie.
11:31	You can choose any one depending on your requirement.
11:37	Left click FPS 24. Type 15 on your keyboard and press Enter.
11:48	So, now our frame rate has changed to 15 frames per second.
11:55	Next is Output. Do you see this horizontal bar with tmp written on the left and a file browser icon on the right?
12:07	Here, we can specify the output folder for our Render files.
12:13	Left click the file browser icon.
12:18	To learn about File Browser, see the tutorial: Types of Windows - File Browser and Info Panel.
12:28	Select your output folder. I am selecting My Documents.
12:35	Left click Create new directory. Type output and press Enter .
12:46	Left click output to open the folder.
12:51	Left click Accept. Now, all our 'Render files' will be saved in the Output Folder in My Documents.
13:03	Below the Output Folder bar is the Image format menu.
13:08	Here, we can choose our 'Output format' for our Render images and movie files.
13:13	Left click PNG. Here is a list of all formats supported in Blender.
13:20	We have image formats and movie formats.
13:25	We can select any one depending on our requirements.
13:30	Below PNG are the three color modes used in Blender. BW is the grayscale mode.
13:38	RGB is selected by default. RGB is the colour mode that saves Render files with RGB data.
13:48	RGBA saves render files with an additional data called Alpha channel.
13:54	This works only with certain image formats that support Alpha channel rendering.
14:01	So, that was about Render panel.
14:05	So, in this tutorial we have covered render panel under the 'Properties window'.
14:11	The rest of the panels shall be covered in the next tutorials.
14:17	Now, go ahead and create a new 'Blend file'. Change the Render Display to New window.
14:25	Change resolution to 720 by 576 100%. Change frame range to 0 to 100.
14:38	Change frame rate to 15 fps. Create an 'output folder' for the render files.
14:47	This tutorial is created by Project Oscar and supported by the National Mission on Education through ICT.
14:57	More information on the same is available at the following links- oscar.iitb.ac.in and spoken-tutorial.org/NMEICT-Intro.
