Welcome to the final stage of the process to create a stunning Lumion architectural visualization. The final step is exporting the 3D scene built in Lumion to a format that can be easily shared with the whole world. As seen in the previous two chapters, there are two ways you can present your work: by using a still image or by creating an animation.
However, how can you export these formats? What is the best way to do it? And can you enhance the look of the final output? To help you with these final steps, this chapter was prepared to tackle some of the best techniques and the following list gives you a fair idea of what we will be covering:
Optimizing before rendering
Different file format options
Using the Movie mode to produce still images
Rendering with the Movie mode
Exporting movies versus clips
Rendering an image sequence
What are render passes
How to use render passes–SkyAlpha, Material ID, SpecularReflection, and Depthmap
Using the Lumion viewer
