Rendering is the process involved in the generation of a 2D and 3D image from a model using application programs. Mostly rendering is used in video games, architectural designs, and animated movies, TV special effects, simulators, and design visualization. The features and techniques used vary according to the project. Rendering help to increase efficiency and reduce cost in design. Let’s take a look at the step on how to rendering image in photoshop.

8 Step to Rendering Image in Photoshop
Rendering is the process of separating an object from the background, so you have a complete image. It is useful for everything from digital graphics to web design.
Rendering image with photoshop lets you create many kinds of visual effects. You can make a person appear within a setting he/she was never actually in. Or, make it look like you have photographed multiple copies of a product that you are advertising even though you only photographed a single copy. Adobe created the Refine Mask tool especially for these kinds of images. Refine Mask detects edges of objects appearing in a picture.
Step 1: The first step is to load a picture into Photoshop that has an image you like to render. For example, load a photo of a man whose background you like to remove.
Step 2: Click on the tools palette icon shaped like a lasso to make use of the Lasso tool. Move the mouse to the point of the image outside the outline you want to render. Press and hold the left button of the mouse, then drag around the image. Stay close to image’s outline, but don’t try to be exact that’s the job of Refine Mask. The critical point is not to stray into the image itself.
Step 3: Release the mouse when you have traced correctly around the image, then click the Layer panel button shaped like a circle. This runs the “Add Layer Mask” tool, which creates a mask that hides the background images. The mask looks as a black and white thumbnail on the right of the recently selected layer in the Layers panel.
Step 4: Right click on the mask thumbnail and then click on “Refine” to open the “Refine Mask” dialog box. Slowly drag the “Radius” slider to the right, observing the image closely as you do so. When the background pixels, which now seem in red, begin to intrude onto the image, drag “Radius” back to the left slightly. There may be a gap between the image and the red background.
Step 5: Drag the mouse, which is loaded by default with Refine Radius brush, over a portion of a gap between the image and background. Photoshop remove the gap, so the red background fits snugly to the image.

Step 6: Use the Refine Radius brush to remove gaps remaining between the image and background and then click on “OK” to close the Refine Mask dialog. The image appears enclosed by white because the white of the default “Background” layer is showing through cutout background of the rendered image.
Step 7: Click the “Background” layer’s eye icon in the Layers panel to make the background completely transparent. Photoshop indicates transparency with a checkerboard pattern that’s colored grey and white.
Step 8: Use the File menu as “Save As” command to save the image as type PNG, which preserves the transparency of the rendering image.
In India, the animation industry is fast becoming the hottest career to pursue. There is a rapidly growing demand for skilled and trained animators. If you are considering a career in animation, the next step is to determine that if you have the creative qualities that are a must for this profession. It is important in such a competitive field to be sure you have got the chops to succeed before spending your time and energy into pursuing a career in animation. To help get you up to speed with the industry, we collected some need-to-know animation information for you.
Career in Animation
Animation industry has tremendous scope for those who want to bring their creativity to life and tell interesting stories. Career in Animation field is almost new as compared to other traditional careers in services, manufacturing or research. Animation is a combination of art and technologies where moving images are created in 3d and 2d to impress, educate, and entertain users and viewer. Below we discuss the various types of animation courses in the industry:
Types of Animation
1. Traditional Animation
Traditional animation is one of the older forms of animation. It sometimes referred to as cel animation. In traditional animation, animators draw the image by hand for each frame to create the animation sequence. Sequential drawings screened instantly one after another creates the illusion of movement. 2D animation involves creating numerous drawings then feeding into hand painting them and create the animated sequence on a painted background image. If you like the feel of pencils on a paper, then the traditional approach is very fascinating.
Many more inventions came along, such as the Zoetrope and Phenakistoscope, but the first projection of animation on a screen came in 1877 with the Praxinoscope, invented by the Charles-Émile Reynaud.

2. 2D Animation
2D animation is the term often used when referring to traditional animation, but it can also refer to computer vector animations that use the techniques of traditional animation.
Computer generated 2D animations use the same techniques which used in traditional animation, but benefits from the lack of physical objects required to create traditional 2D animations, as well as the knowledge to use computer interpolation to the same time.
Walt Disney is often recognised with producing the first ever 2d animation. Although Disney himself did create one of the famous 2d animations in history.
3. 3D Animation
If you are interested in making the imaginary characters into a realistic one, then it’s Digital 3d animation. Digital 3d animation characters are faster to create, and they are quite popular in the movie-making industry. Using computer software 3d animated images are used to create many films, and tv ads and a career in digital 3d animation is highly rewarding. Comparing to the traditional approach and 2D animation, 3d animation models are highly realistic. Nassos Vakalis is one of the most famous 3D animators in the world. His work in DreamWorks as well as in his own movie has demonstrated his potentials fully.

4. Motion Graphic
Motion graphics is quite different from the other animation types. It’s the art of creatively moving graphic texts or element, usually for movies, ads, movie trailers, music videos. This type of digital animation is often used in blockbusters, including The Legend of Tarzan film and Dawn of the Planet of the Apes. Today, it is highly popular in commercials, sporting event and online videos.

5. Stop Motion Animation
Stop motion is made by taking pictures of an object, and then moving it just a little bit and taking another picture. The process is repeated and when the pictures are played back one by one they give the illusion of movement. It is similar to traditional animation, but it uses the real-life stuff instead of drawings.
Different Types of Animation
1. Claymation Animation
2. Puppets Animation
3. Cut-Out Animation
4. Silhouette Animation
5. Pixelation Animation
Ray Harryhausen acquired a worldwide fandom as the creator and designer of fantasy films of all time. He was identified as a master of stop-motion animation and special-effects designer.
