| By default, it gets displayed on the Blender Interface whenever we open Blender.

| The settings in this panel are used to create the final output of the animation.

| Left click  '''image''' . For keyboard shortcut, press''' F12'''.

| The active camera view is rendered as a single frame image.

| Press '''ESC''' on your keyboard to return to the 3D view.

| '''Animation''' is used to render an entire range of frames or an image sequence and create a movie file.

| By default, the frame range is''' 1 to 250''' on the timeline.

| Press '''Esc''' to return to the 3D view.

| Go to''' Display''' in the Render panel.

| Display helps us choose how to view the render progress on the Screen

| By Default, the display is in''' Image Editor mode'''. Let me demonstrate.

| Press '''F12''' to render the active camera view.

| The Render Display appears as the UV/Image Editor.

| The 3D view changes to the''' UV/Image Editor''' everytime we render the active camera view.

| To learn about the UV/Image Editor, see the tutorial Types of windows - UV/Image Editor

| Press''' Esc''' to return to the 3D view.

| Go to''' Display''' in the '''Render '''panel. Left click''' image editor'''.

| This drop-down menu shows a list of render display options.

| Left click to '''select Full Screen'''.

| Press '''F12''' to render the active camera view.

| Now, the entire Blender screen gets replaced by the UV/Image editor

| Press '''Esc''' to exit the full screen render mode and return to the Blender workspace.

| Go to '''Display''' in the Render panel. Left click '''Full screen'''. Select '''New window''' from the list.

| Now, the Render Display appears as a new window over the Blender Workspace.

| You will find this very useful when rendering previews of your animation.

| Close the Render Display window.

| Left click to select''' Image editor mode'''. The display is in '''Image Editor mode'''.

| Here is a list of all major render presets. '''DVCPRO, HDTV, NTSC, PAL etc'''.

| For now, we shall leave these aside and proceed to the''' Render Dimension''' settings

| Resolution is the width and height of the Render Display and the active Camera view

|''' 50%'''  is the percentage scale of the Render resolution.

| It is only half or '''50%''' of the actual resolution

| Left click and hold '''50%''' under Resolution in the Render Panel, and drag to the right.

| Left click''' 100%.''' Now type '''100''' on the keyboard and press '''enter'''.

| Here is a full 100% resolution render of '''1920 by 1080 pixels'''

| Close the render display windows. Now, I want to change the resolution to 720 by 576 pixels

| Left click '''1920'''. Type '''720''' on your keyboard and press '''enter'''

| Again, Left click''' 1080'''. Type '''576''' on your keyboard and press '''enter'''.

| Here is a full 100% resolution render of 720 by 576 pixels

| Go to''' Frame range''' under Dimensions in the Render Panel.

|''' Frame Range'''  determines the renderable animation length for your movie.

| This is the starting frame or first frame of our animation length

| Left click '''End 250'''. Type''' 100''' on your keyboard and press enter.

| This is the ending frame or last frame of our animation length.

| So now we have a new frame range for our animation.

| Go to Timeline , below the 3D view.

| Notice how the timeline display has changed now because we changed the Frame range in the Render panel.

| To learn about the Timeline window, see the tutorial Types of Windows - Timeline.

| Frame rate determines the number of frames animating in one second in our movie.

| By default, it is '''24 fps''' or frames per second.

| Left click '''FPS 24'''. Type '''15''' on your keyboard and press''' enter'''.

| So now our frame rate has changed to '''15 frames per second'''.

| Next is Output. Do you see this horizontal bar with '''tmp''' written on the left and a '''file browser''' icon on the right?

| Here we can specify the output folder for our Render files.

| To learn about File Browser, see the tutorial Types of Windows - File Browser and Info Panel.

| Select your output folder. I am selecting '''My Documents'''.

| Left click '''Create new directory'''. Type''' OUTPUT''' and press '''enter''' .

| Left click''' Output''' to open the folder.

| Left click '''Accept'''. Now all our Render files will be saved in the Output Folder in My Documents.

| Below the Output Folder bar is the Image format menu.

| Here we can choose our Output format for our Render images and movie files

| Left click '''PNG'''. Here is a list of all formats supported in Blender.

| Below '''PNG''' are the three color modes used in Blender. '''BW''' is the grayscale mode.

| '''RGBA''' saves render files with an additional data called Alpha channel.

| This works only with certain image formats that support Alpha channel rendering.

|So , that was about '''render panel'''.

|So, in this tutorial we have covered render panel under the Properties window.

| Now, go ahead and create a new Blend file. Change the Render Display to New window.

| Change resolution to 720 by 576 100%. Change frame range to 0 to 100.

| Change frame rate to 15 fps. Create an Output folder for the render files.
