Post-Production: Rendering

The final part of animation is rendering out the product itself. Depending on the computer's speed, the amount of objects and textures, an animation can take little time or a very long time to render. Once the animation is rendered the final product can look very well done. Below is a screenshot of Final Fantasy XIII of when it was rendered out.

The things that would be rendered out in this image would be the character, her hair, mouth phoneme for when she talks, the background and any of the character animating (head, arms, neck, eyes etc.).
