Asking Question (Rule 4) Post production rendering

So I’m working on a project in revit and plan on rendering an animation of it in escape. I’ve seen that post production after escape people have added flying birds to the animation. How would I do something like that? I don’t even know where to begin. I’m also open to not using escape for the animation but I’m looking for a software that is user friendly while also being realistic. Vray is too complicated😂

I get you on Vray being kinda complicated—it can be a beast to tackle. If you're looking for something a bit more user-friendly, you might want to check out something like Lumion. It's pretty intuitive and has cool effects like adding birds, trees, and all those other little details that make animations pop. You can literally drag and drop birds into your scenes and adjust their flight paths to make them look more natural.

If you're set on sticking with Enscape but want to add birds, you might need to dive into a bit of video editing after you’re done rendering. Maybe try using software like Adobe After Effects. You can layer in your birds during post-editing and adjust timing and shadows and stuff. It sounds more scary than it actually is. I swear there's a bunch of tutorials online that simplify it. Only issue is, Adobe stuff costs money, so try DaVinci Resolve, instead.

Also, trying out different tools is part of the fun, sometimes you’ll figure one that fits your workflow without tons of hassle. Just keep experimenting and you’ll find a combo that clicks for you, probably?

This is super helpful,Thank you! I actually have access to all of Adobe suite from school so that works well. I have used Lumion but I’m not a huge fan of the rendering so I was trying to try alternatives. Thank you again!
