3D Render Calculator

Estimate total render time for an animation.

Number of frames

Time per frame

Render machines

Total render time 72

Total render time (days) 3

Formula: time = frames * per-frame / machines

Step-by-step with your numbers:

1. Values used:

2. Number of frames = 1,440

3. Time per frame = 3

4. Render machines = 1

6. Total render time = 72

7. Total render time = 3days

Did we solve your problem today?

Estimate how long a 3D animation takes to render across your machines.

The math behind it

total time = frames x time per frame / number of machines (a render farm shares the load).

1440 frames at 3 min each on one machine takes 72 hours.

How do I render faster?

Add machines, lower samples, or optimise the scene.
