Making Comics with Blender Render Passes

In this video we take a look at how we can use Blender render passes to tremendously cut production time on making comics. With a nice 3D setup and some good render passes, we can let Blender do things for us such as the line art, the flatting process and even help us out with a whole bunch of valuable lighting and effect layers. All ready to import into Photoshop to further process into amazing looking comics!
