- Others may respond in great numbers. Here's my $0.02:
-
- NTSC is _going_ to do that. I take it separation of passes
- (beauty pass/running light pass/etc. pass) is out of the question
- from your "time" comment, try using the "soft filter" and "motion
- blur" filters. This was recommended to our LW users' group by
- Ken Van Brocklin (he's on here too) and he demo'ed the difference
- that it makes. The other thing is to try setting your edge
- threshold to 25 or 30, if the differences between your lights and
- your hull are going to be pretty big, you _may_ not need that
- level of sensitivity. This should decrease your render time
- somewhat. If separation of passes is doable in your time frame,
- try it and use a different motion blur on the lights...it may
- actually look more like "persistence of vision" and maybe this
- will look nice to you as well. Good luck!
