The requisite maximum resolution
Before we can go ahead and set up the final aspect at which we will produce our
renders however, there is yet another important piece of information that needs to
be decided upon, this being the maximum pixel size (specifically the maximum width
value) that will be required for the final rendered images.
As well as, being a needed piece of information for setting up the final aspect ratio,
the maximum pixel resolution at which we render is, in its own right, a setting that will
affect both the composition and staging of our image.
Of course, the maximum resolution used in final renders can and will vary from project
to project and will to some extent be determined by the type of output media that
either the client or we ourselves are targeting. Typically speaking, projects that are
going to print tend to require higher resolution renders than those being used for on-
screen presentations simply because of the need to pack extra image detail into each
printed inch of paper. Without that extra detail, a printed render could potentially look
extremely blocky and low quality.
To get some idea of the difference that exists between a number of already mentioned
pixel resolutions, take a look at the following diagram:
