This page provides a quick starting point to create a previz animation with Chaos Vantage. Overview To create a previz animation you need to learn how to set up your scene to work in Chaos Vantage, tweak camera transitions, and set your high-quality sequences render settings, optimizing memory consumption. The video and the instructions below show you how to do it. Want to follow along but don’t have a license?   Steps 1. Open your animation. Create and scroll through your animation to view camera and object movements in your preferred DCC (C4D was used in this example). 2. Set a scene for export to Vantage. Set a start and end frames for the animation and export a .vrscene file. V-Ray for 3ds Max V-Ray for Maya V-Ray for SketchUp V-Ray for Revit V-Ray for Rhino V-Ray for Cinema 4D V-Ray for Houdini V-Ray for Nuke V-Ray for Unreal 3. Load and preview the scene in Vantage. Go to  File > Open Scene  to load the exported .vrscene in Vantage. Click the  Play  ( ) button to preview the scene animation. 4. Import pre-made camera config   (optional). Go to  File > Open Scene as Config Only  to load previously created cameras and camera transitions. Modify transitions' durations and type as necessary. 5. Open HQ sequence render settings. Set the render settings as desired. Enable  Denoiser ,  Reduce flickering  and keep a small  Samples  limit to produce a faster yet clean rendering. Increase  Samples  limit and disable  Reduce flickering  for cleaner and sharper result. Click  Start  to begin rendering the previz animation.
