V-Ray for SketchUp tutorial — Creating and exporting animations

This video is part of the ‘’Setting up a project from start to finish’’ V-Ray for SketchUp tutorial series, designed to show you the essential steps in creating stunning photoreal exterior and interior renders for your architectural projects.


What’s a great project presentation without a photorealistic animation? In our series wrap-up episode, Boyan Petrov, 3D artist at Chaos, demonstrates how to export a quick preview animation before committing to production rendering using V-Ray Vision. Then, he’ll create the final animation using the power of the Chaos ecosystem.

this is the best tutorial series on vray for sketchup and I really appreciate your time. learned a lot. the best thing about these tutorials is the duration of each video. time is of great value and you have done justice with it. thankyou so much. really appreciate it.

These are exciting times for architectural visualization and softwares. Vray has come a long way and am excited for the new updates.

They think that the renderings I take with vray are photos taken in real places, it is very successful 😊 thanks for Chaos team 🖖👌

Thanks for the great content! Helps a lot with troubleshooting when things go wrong. My vision animation comes out pixelated. Any idea what that could be? And the production renders are super slow on a super fast pc. Tried on the cloud also, with even slower rendering results.

I don't have output button to choose video in the export settings.

Hi there,
I have been looking for the answer to a question, but I guess I don't have enough knowledge or skill about software to find my answer. I hope you guys or any other experts can help me to answer this question:
In terms of realism, clarity, depth, or overall quality, is there a difference between Sketchup V-Ray and 3ds Max V-Ray renderings? Please help, if I can find the answer, I will have an idea of what direction I should keep going.
I am good in Sketchup and learning V-Ray rending within it, but somehow I feel like others working with 3ds Max +V-Ray is always ahead! I am not sure if it is only about personal skills, or actually the difference between the two software.. Thanks a lot !

When I try to use the chaos cloud it to render it, it says I can't cause I have no credits. The credit thing is new? Or on top of paying to have vray I also must pay to have credits to render through the cloud?

What is your PC specifications? Please tell that will help to build new my own

Next level up is having the ability to animate trees in motion. Is this something we can look forward to? 🙏

What kind of machine specs are you working with? Mine is a Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1240 v6 @ 3.70GHz 3.70 GHz, 32.0 GB, Nvidia Quadro P4000, SSD 1TB and I am struggling everytime i need to perform a RT render or work with Vision especially when i have v-ray skatter on or Fur. It is a nightmare! What specs would you recommend, please!? something that`s not crazy expensive! Many thanks

Why is animation not clickable for me? it doesnt let me click animation the blue slide part?

[milosmatovic]

Why is quallity of image much worse in Vision then in Render...for example I just try this animation and it doesnt looks realistic at all....but photos from Vray Render are just amazing. The same scene, same materials, same reflections dont understand

[minathabit]

Vray need to have stand-alone programe that contain animated objects much advanced options for animation like lumion 3d and D5 programe vray is much behind that kind of programs in animation production and need to be much faster in rendering

[onzkicg]

😂 Thanks but how I wish it’s same in real life complex projects..
The Vray Vision here takes like only 3-5 seconds to load but in my PC, 20min or more minutes before you can move it. Even crashes. I guess this is meant for high end RTX cards. I have dual GTX1080 Alienware pc, i9 intel cpu, already powerful beast and still choking 😂 😂

191 credits spend for 90 frames... 1 credit is USD 1.00

for still render vrays is my top choice. for video animation vray is not that user friendly and realistic
