Need help on animating with maya

I was wondering if there is another way of animating our scenes in maya. It's just when doing batch render it takes a lot of images and then we have to edit them into one film. This feels quite annoying so I was wondering if there is away to tell maya what video format to render our animation in without telling it to render every single frame?

  1. You can indeed render straight into video; in the render settings window, open the Image Format drop-down menu and select "AVI (avi)"

  2. But shabir this cannot be done with mental ray, mental ray can only output in images, one advantage is that if some frames bugger up you can easily re-render just those instead of the whole thing if you were to render a straight video file.
