Per-Camera Resolution

Common Use Cases

• Set a custom resolution for each camera in your project.
• Switch between cameras with different resolutions using timeline markers.
• Create new cameras that focus on specific areas by using the render border feature.
• Render animations with varying resolutions per camera without manual adjustments.

Things To Watch Out For

• Local path or asset-library signals were detected. Paths that work on the artist machine can still fail on remote workers.
• Bake or cache signals were detected. Generated outputs may need to be prepared before upload.

Common Mistakes

• Not uploading local assets or helper files, causing incorrect renders on the farm.
• Failing to upload caches or baked outputs, leading to differences between local and farm renders.

Recommended Workflow

• Bake caches or precompute outputs before sending a long render job.
• Check if the add-on launches its own render operators locally and ensure this workflow maps to farm orchestration.
• Open the scene in desktop Blender, run any interactive setup steps, save the file, then validate a small background render before scaling up.
