Okay we are going to create a photo realistic rendering

•  Make sure you have the assembly of the whole Pizza Cutter.iam file open

Click on= Environment's; Begin; & then Inventor Studio

Select the Render Image option

Under screen style pick one you like, I’m using Starfield

•  You can experiment with the different settings until you get an image you like.

Render Shaded & save it as: Pizza Cuter Shaded.JPG

Change the Render type to Illustration & save it as Pizza

Cutter-Illustration.JPG

Now we will create a 3D Animation Fade

•  Click on Animate & then Fade

Select all of the component's or parts 1st!

When all of the component's have been selected

•  Set the Action End to 0% & the Time End to 10

Bottom right hand part of the timeline = select the Animation

Options button

Change the Length to 10 & Speed Velocity to 30 / 40 / 30

Now test the Animation = your Pizza Cutter should fade out to

nothing

•  If it fades out = ready to render your animation of this

Select the Red Record button in the timeline

•  Select a Scene Style you like, I’m using Satterfield again

Change the Output tab options to: •  Save it to your

Pizza Cutter folder as = Pizza Cutter Fade Video

•  Time Range = 10

•  Then select the Render button & Ok

You should now see this

•  FYI: It can take 10-15 minutes to render this WMV video file so be patient

Play your video

•  Does your Pizza Cutter fade away to nothing in the video = congratulations!!

•  NOTE: the difference in the Inventor

Studio versus a regular assembly video
