buzzing lines when shapes are drawn with a brush

Post by steakopoivre »

Hi, I am using AS Pro 8.2. I used a brush for effect but when I rendered the part that was drawn with it, the lines 'buzz'. Can a brush be used without the buzzing effect in rendering?. I then tried to replace the brush with no brush and the 'buzz' was still there in the rendered clip. Help! Thanks.

As long as that specific shape doesn't move, the brush line shouldn't "buzz". However, when moving, the brush needs to be calculated for every frame, which means it's stamped in different locations, and that gives the buzz.

Thanks slowtiger, much appreciated. The brush is used in a background scene which does not move. However the camera zooms on a character at some point and the background is behind it. Could that cause of the lines' buzz? Thanks

Yes, that could be the reason.

If it's a background and doesn't move: render it as 1 image and re-import.

Thanks slowtiger, i converted the background into a jpeg file and it works great. Thanks for the tip.
