- Blender Output Settings Explained Step-by-Step!
This beginner tutorial for Blender animation output settings will cover exporting your animation in Blender step-by-step. Blender's render settings and output settings need to be understood in order export your final Blender animation correctly. I'll also show you how to render an animation in Blender with a transparent background (alpha channel).
Rendering a final animation in Blender frame-by-frame using .png files as the output file format is better than rendering an animation directly using FFMPEG or other file formats. I cover Blender time re-mapping, Blender resolution settings, transparent backgrounds, alpha channels, frame step, frame rate, the Blender video sequence editor, video codec, video container and more.
This is a Blender animation tutorial for absolute beginners that covers the basics of exporting your animations, output settings, render settings for both Eevee and Cycles. Plus I'll show you how to render an animation with a transparent background.

If you're only suppose render out image frames with Blender and not full animations.
Then why is there even an option to render out full animations in Blender?

I'm here 3 years after the posting of this video to tell you that you're still helping people - thank you!
I have never seen such a methodological and complete video..... I learnt everything about the output settings ...😍
Thank you so much !!
if anyone out there gets the error message "Border rendering is not supported by sequencer" after trying to render your edited animation,
there is a SIMPLE FIX:
-at Output Properties, make sure "Render Region" is NOT checked.
you're welcome
anyway thanks Brandon for the video!
it helped but in the render window is just grey
can u help me there ?
it says width not divisible by 2 (745x1324)
I don't know if the video's creator will see this comment, but I have to say this is one of the most helpful videos I have ever seen in the whole 2 years of learning Blender. Not only does he explain things concisely and in all the needed detail, but he leaves out no information and honestly does better than any of my teachers at making this process clear to me. Thank you so much!!!
Fantastic, ultra-clear tutorial video. Thank you immensely for sharing your knowledge.
Thank you so much!!
I subscribed, but I personally wanted to thank you for being the best damn instructor on Blender. There are a lot of knowledgeable people making video tutorial on Blender but the do not know the first thing about teaching. Give you an example, you actually edit your videos and show close-ups and move like you actually want the viewer to understand. I have been making video editing tutorials for years and I appreciate a great teacher. You are the best! I also visited your website and will visit often. Thanks again! Ron
Hey Ron, that is the nicest comment I think I've ever gotten on CZcams. I really appreciate it and will work to keep making my videos better! Thank you so much and take care!!
Yea, I agree, so very helpful. I didn't even know there was a video editor in Blender
im autistic so i really struggle understanding most tutorials. You were calm, to the point, and said all the necessary steps without babbling on. this is the first tutorial I have actually understood. thank you! :)
Wow. Today was the first time I looked for a rendering video on YT after starting Blender. Thinking this was going to be ridiculously hard from what I've read online, you have gone through it in great detail, unlike numerous videos I have watched before on other stuff. That's what we need, someone to explain exactly what every aspect of this program does. Thank you, Brandon. I will no doubt be looking for more of your tutorials. Hopefully you've upgraded to 3.5 and will post more helpful info. Excellent, my friend. Thank you again.
Hey Ronald, thank you so much for the kind words! I have indeed updated to 3.5 and am always working on updating stuff. I send out a monthly newsletter with a lot of updates and new content. If interested, you can join at brandonsdrawings.com/subscribe/
A tip for some people who might have encountered the same problem I did, If when you put the pics in the sequencer they are out of order and/or reversed, the order in the sequencer is changed by the way the pictures are ordered in the folder when they're selected. Before pressing A, click the "name" option in the file explorer blender pop-up to sort by name, if you did things right up to this step the pics are going to be numbered in order of first to last, this way they're imported to the sequencer from first to last.
Actually a saviour, i was looking at it dumbfounded as to why it was inverted
I came to the conclusion that this video is literally perfect. I have saved it in a playlist like a year ago when I've found it and I still come back to it when I need help. Perfectly clear explanation, all topics covered, short and easy to navigate. Thank you so much man!
although it's 3 yrs ago, thank you so much for your tutorial. I've been struggling with this for a week and you finally helped me out. Thank you so much!
I'm absolutely loving your tutorials! So clear and concise. I'll stop commenting but looking forward to binging the entire collection and watching your uploads, thank you again.
Thanks so much, that is awesome to hear and I will try really hard not to disappoint!!
Simple, detailed but not verbose, and practical. This was so helpful and much better than a lot of explanations and tutorials I've seen.
Thank you for the feedback and the kind words!
Great stuff man wow!! Complete tutorials are rare with such clear and slow instructions. The way you explain every single step is awesome!
(12:10) The "Placeholders" option comes in very handy when we save an animation rendered on more than one computer on the local network (home rendering farm). This informs other computers on the network about the image frame currently being created.
I didn't see it mentioned, but quicktime encoding can also handle alpha and the image file will be smaller. Great tutorial, the mapping settings I've never played with, that's super helpful.
Thank you! I am new to Blender, have watched MANY tutorials. Your style is the best I have seen. Clear, easy to understand, and I greatly appreciated how you not only explain each step but also provide your reasoning. Definitely subscribed.
Thanks man, I send out a monthly newsletter with all my new tips, tutorials and other Blender things if interested, you can sign up here: brandonsdrawings.com/subscribe
தெய்வமே நீ வாழ்க... உன் பொண்டாட்டி புள்ளைங்களும் வாழ்க
Thank you! It’s very informative and too the point. I hate tutorials where they just hop around from setting to setting because I don’t actually learn what I personally want for my own animations. Usually because by the end I don’t truly grasp what each setting does.
Thank you so much
Thank you for making this so to-the-point! So many channels make it about themselves, and not the content they're presenting. Was able to grasp the info quickly in this fashion.
Thank you for the kind words, that means a lot and is exactly what I was going for. Thank you!!
Literally a life saver man, great Tutorial. My render kept crashing and I was getting no progress and feeling discouraged. Thank you.
Glad I could help!! Thank you!
Happy 2023! 🎉 I'm back again. I love this video!
Happy to have you back! Glad you like it! I’ve started a monthly (might be twice a month soon) newsletter where I’m emailing new videos and non-video tutorials out for free. You can sign up here if interested: brandonsdrawings.com/subscribe
Words cant describe how thankful i am for concise, straight to the point educational people like you.
Thanks for existing bro
I did once well outputting animation video but I struggled weeks for outputting animation still image. This humble and clear tutorial make my blind eyes opened. Thank you very much.
I love how clear and concise this is! Excellent tutorial!
Hey, thank you so much! Clear and concise is what I’m trying to focus on!!
The perfect tutorial, simple, tells you why you need to do certain settings, I feel like I didn’t even k ow where to start when learning blender but now I feel like I actually know what I’m doing sometimes and it feels great not to need a tutorial every time I do something
Wow, thank you so much!!
This tutorial is fantastic, I have subscribed. You have a real skill for getting straight to the point in a clear and easily understood way. I spent hours last night looking for tutorials on how to do this and I just found this one this morning and I was done in a minute or two. If anyone gets a message saying "Sequence/bordering rendering is not supported" when they go to Render - Render Animation, then go to View in the preview window and click on - Sequence Render Animation, as I had this problem.
literally the most helpful video ever!!! Rly AMAZING Thank you
Wow, thank you!! Glad it helped!
This was helpful, especially transparent exporting part :) Thanks
I went over this about 6 times and made a bunch of notes. Heaps helpful and my renders are better already. Now all I need to do is figure out how to use spatial :) Thanks, heaps!
Glad it helped, thank you!! I send out tips every few weeks to my email list as well if you’re interested: brandonsdrawings.com/subscribe
What an INCREDIBLY helpful tutorial Brandon - super-informative and practical, with no wasted time on gimmicks. A thousand thanks! With greetings from Cape Town.
Hi Andrew, I'm sorry this took so long but thank you so much for the kind comment and for watching! I will work hard to not disappoint on future videos. Thank you!
Every time I take a break from Blender, I come back to this video to remind me how to render my animations. You're a lifesaver!
I'm just starting to learn blender. I've been watching so many tutorials but I think yours is the best. Simple and direct to the point! Thanks! :)
Wow that is so kind, thank you!!
Pardon the way I say this but it’s with all respect sirr, it’s always older folk that teach the best it’s all these younger “blender teachers” having videos with info all over the place and ALWAYS leaving out all kinds of details, then they ask you to join there discord to get “help” just to watch the guy help others first right in front of you and I sat there all day staring at the damn computer screen hoping somebody would help for 8 freaking hours, you are straight to the point and deserve my subscription, if you happend to read this I have a question please.
I read it. Thank you! I’m 38. Not THAT old. lol!
@@Brandon-3D sorry man I meant older as in not juvenile and straight to the point usually older folk but not elderly lol my bad bro I feel and now.
@@EL_N0IR_2201 haha. All good! Appreciate the support!!
@@Brandon-3D quick question about rendering will color banding always be present in renders? Weather it be png sequence or mp4 ffmpeg constant bit rate high? U can’t get rid of it 100% just minimize it?
Great tutorial that has an actually clear explanation unlike a lot of others, love to see someone that is capable of making good tutorials
Thank you so much. I really appreciate that! Take care!
I just started with Blender and today I made my first animation, I was ready to render it and I was about to do it wrong. Im SO glad I found your Channel. Thank you so much Brandon, your really good!
Glad I was hopefully able to save you some time and frustration! Thank you for watching as well!
thank you sir 😀 I recently tried my first render. good thing I saw your video first. After 3 hours of rendering, Blender crashed. I just continued from the last frame where it stopped 😀
Excellent tutorial. You explained the purpose of each setting you chose or didn't choose. I've seen too many tutorials where the narrator just says "Set this setting to A; next, set that setting to B and this other setting to C", leaving you scratching your head as to why the narrator did that.
slow clap for brandon. hands down the best instructional video I've ever seen for these types of projects.
A fantastic, thorough, and simple tutorial. Thank you for taking the time to create and share this content. Just what I needed to wrap up my project!
Great! Happy to help. Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment and support the channel!!!
I can understand every single word you explain. Your tutorial is very clear. Thank you a lot
Very happy to hear that. Thanks for the kind feedback. Stay creative!
This is a great video. Nice to see all the information in one video. I followed your description and made my first video without any problems. Thanks
his is the best video for exporting animations. I have it bookmarked it and I'll come back to it until Iearn the process by memory.
I always come back to this it helps a lot LOL, thank you. Something worth noting for people who want to export a transparent animation into Premiere, changing the container & codec to Quicktime / QT Animation instead & then selecting RGBA will be supported, the PNG codec doesn't seem to get along with Premiere
Dude You saved my life! This video is so helpful to first time people animating
thank you, I had already known which settings to use from previous tutorials but nice to have a slightly longer more in depth tutorial that explains why these settings are better
i want to appreciate your video. i have been struggling following guides and this is exactly what i needed, thank you.
Awesome to hear, thank you for taking the time to leave a comment too! If interested I send out monthly roundups of my own tutorials and other helpful things for Blender in my newsletter. You can sign up here: brandonsdrawings.com/subscribe
Thank you so much . One of the best blender teachers in youtube . Made everything clear and easy to understand 💝💖
Wow, that’s quite a compliment :). I think I’m very far from the best but I am glad to hear you liked it. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave the feedback!
Everytime I need to relearn this I come back to your video. It is very good at teaching when you forget how to do it thank you very much for your content and videos.
Brandon, thank you, thank you for using the bare bones to explain this, I've been trying for a week (with other tubers) to get my head round render/video edit, yes I too thought rendering was the finality, until I tried to put my finished project into Premier Pro, Dow! . . Top man !
Sorry for the delay but thank you so much for leaving the kind comment. I was going for exactly what you described and it's so good to hear that it was helpful. Thank you!
You r kind of doctor Strange of multiverse, thx for the greatest tutorial. You got a new subscriber
Lol. Thank you!!
THANK YOU for making this very crystal clear and short and sweet. I greatly appreciate it that. Liked and subbed.
Happy to hear, thank you so much for the support!
Very helpful tutorial and clearly explained! Thank you so much! U R Z Best!!🤩🤩🤩
Thank you!!! 🙏
thank you for the great information. I will have to watch more of your video to learn more of these details. Thank you very much. These steps made it so easy to follow.
This was exactly what I needed! It walked me through everything and it was clear and concise .Great tutorial, thank you so much.
This worked wonders. Spent all day working on a rain scene and this was exactly what I needed. BTW render the second time was wayyyyyy faster lol
Glad it helped!!
wow, this was the first time I watched Your tutorial and I have to say.... I'm really amazed! I just attempted to create an animation in blender. I did, watching different tutorials. But Yours - explains it all and very, very good medium scientific way ;) which I like very much. A lot of youtubers don't bother to explain things. They just say "waht to do" becouse they did that. I prefer Your attitude. I liked and subscribed becouse You deserve that.
Bro you have been a mentor throuh out my learning and saved the day so many times. Thank you.
nice, thanks, needed this for a project i'm working on and will be using this method of animating moving forward, sooo much more efficient!
This video literally taught me everything about exporting animation the proper way, my rendering speeds for animation has got real faster now! Very informative lesson, you will definitely learn a lot from Brandon the Master :D
Me too before watching this video I was suffering in animation render
All bow to the almighty Brandon. Lol.
Dude it's videos like this is what I like it's to the point well edited and over all well done this is a great video and i learn a lot
Sorry for the late reply but thank you so much. I'm really glad you liked it!
thank you for actually explaining what i needed to know!!!
I am here to help :). Thank you for watching and for commenting! Really appreciate it!
Thank you so much for taking the time to explain and clarify. This is very helpful! U R Z Best!!! 🤩🤩🤩
Thank you, so clear and to the point, already learned more in the first four minutes than I have any other video. Big ups!
Side note: While you wouldn't usually render straight to video, it is helpful to do so when animating to a sound effect track-especially one that's a flat (mixed down) audio track. This lets your renders have the synced sound in them, and easily playback in the Blender animation player. Such renders are often very short; just a few seconds out of the whole, until you want a full preview.
Also, you will lose your work when a crash happens while rendering to an MP4, but with the Matroska container format previous frames are not lost; the video is playable up until the crashed frame.
Thanks for the video my man. Helped more than you know.
Glad to hear, thanks for taking the time to leave the note. Take care!
this is fantastic! everything I needed to know, no bs and no fluff. thank you!
That’s what I was going for! Thank you!

That is great to hear, thank you for the kind words!
Thank you so much for this great explanation. I have seen many Blender tutorials and this one is among the best. It couldn't be done better.
Wow! Thank you that means a lot to me, really appreciate it!
Man, you are a life saver.
Happy to help!
This is one of those very clear and understandable lessions on blender Thanks much. I wished something was said on using an audio file though. I hope sometime in the future?
thank you very much, this really was easy to understand, thanks for explaining what was for every function
Gracias, me sirvió para aprender a exportar la animación a video con audio incluido.
