watch this in 1.5x speed to render 4, 492 times faster in cycles

Recorded the tutorial at half framerate and forgot to slow down 💀

Im glad no geo nodes used, just a classical CGMatter adventure

There's a case to be made about INCREASING the size of the final image rather than reducing it. If you render at 200% there's 4 times the pixels, so you reduce the samples by a factor of 4. What this does is keep constant the amount of "samples per image", so in theory it should take the same amount of time; but the additional render passes used by the denoiser are almost free since they take just one sample for the most part. This to say that the denoiser has more data for the same amount of render time, so it performs better and doesn't take longer. Also, always use multi-pass denoising

Dude, that brings back old traumas from my studies. Because that's exactly what the math lectures were like in the first semester. The professor wrote on the board at the same speed as he spoke. He was like a machine gun: talk, write, erase the board, talk, write... 😂😂😂

That unexpected " No difference :( " cracked me up for some reason

one of the best cycles optimization vids but you actually never want to use random noise seed plus denoiser since it ends up with more flickering on your final animation

The speed takes me back to the fast tutorials, it's been a while
And I did not forget the rap one

Rendering via terminal is really good for computers with low amounts of RAM like 16gb

Important note: superscale in DaVinci requires studio version. Don’t down-scale your resolution unless you have a tool that will upscale at the end.

NGL I had to double check if I had my speed setting in 2x. Bro is transcending.

Probably the most useful video about render optimization on Youtube. Litteraly saved my life!

There isnt a single channel where the learning is equal to the laughs. Thank you for everything you do

It's a pretty good tutorial, but I think that you should render like a 2 or 3 different settings and show us a difference between them at the end.
Also maybe show us how to optimize render settings for scene with volumetrics, as volumetrics are very heavy to render.
Thanks for the video tho.

It’s incredibly helpful! I’m cutting down my frame renders huge amounts!. I don’t need super duper renders, while I’m learning and building showreels of text animations, most people wouldn’t know the difference if you are putting up 5 sec samples on social media . It gets around hardware limits

These tips reduced a 4.5hr cycles render to about 28 minutes with very close to the same image quality! Thank you!

Found this at 4am instead of sleeping, worth it 😆

It can all be done faster, but if you want to make a photo realistic rendering, you still want to keep the quality high. It would be ideal if they used EEVEE rendering as a template for Cycles rendering. Calculations are made in the background and put into a database. If there are any changes to your visual, it will be updated in the background.

ill never forget the day i heard a movie effects guy reference you in an interview they did. I cant remember where i saw it but i see why they did lol.
