Director
Director turns your model into film. Author a camera move over the live scene, render an exact sequence of frames, and assemble them into a video — with every frame rendered as a clean, fully restored Rhino transaction.
“Follow this curve, hold focus on the tower, render the frames, package the film.”
How a frame is made
Section titled “How a frame is made”Each frame is one atomic Rhino transaction, so nothing leaks between frames:
- Snapshot objects and viewport
- Apply per-frame transforms
- Set an explicit camera and display mode
- Capture the PNG frame
- Restore state and return evidence
