There are two different aproaches to exporting your animation from OpenToonz:
1. Fast Render MP4 - this requires you to install the video encoder ffmpeg and point OpenToonz to the location of it.
2. the professional workflow of exporting an image sequence and assembling it in a compositing or video editing software.
To demonstrate the professional exporting workflow in DaVinci Resolve, we will import the image sequence in DaVinci Resolve

The way you teach I love,
You explain everything step by step thank you Ferdinand ❤️❤️ I'm learning so many things as beginner in animation
You have no idea how helpful this was for me! Thank you very much!
Great tutorial! My 9 year old is great with his animation skills, but struggled to export his work. This video was VERY clear and easy to follow. We both thank you very much!!!
The issue took me half a day, and I finally got rid of the problem by watching this video, THANKS A LOT.
The only issue I was apparently having was closing Opentoonz BEFORE trying to render with the new path
Thank you SO MUCH for this video! It was extremely helpful!
Thank you so much, you helped me a lot, and hello from Russia!
)
I love Russia!
thank you sir! i couldnt have done it without you.
Hi!!! Thank you a lot fot the video!! It's always very simple to understand!!
I have a slight problem tho, When I do the first method, i do get the message Rendering frame into mp4, but when o go into the folder, ther's nothing.. Same when i save it on my desktop
Do you have an idea as too why?
thank you so much ! your videos are always a huge help !! :)
Hi thanks for your lessons you give great information. I am having trouble in a few areas. when i drop the images into the timeline in 'edit' mode, it doesnt recognise it as a video but inserts all the frame just like the first timeline. also ffmpeg is downloaded on my computer buut it is not recognised in open toonz i havce tried everything including deleteing and redownloading many times. what do i do ? has the software updated and now your video no longer works?
Thank you so much, sir. This lesson has been very helpful to me. you explained it so well and I was able to understand. Thank you for taking time out to do this lesson.
Your way to explain is very easy to understand.
Great teacher! Others should learn from this. Bravo and thank you! 🔥❤️
Glad you found it helpful! :)
thanks a lot for making such an informative videos keep making such amazing content
Super helpful! I'm trying to find a new animation program, and I think I'm sold on opentoonz!
Thanks!
Greetings from the Uruguay!
This helped me much and you also helped my aspiring-animator carrer!
Also Hello from Italy!
Ty so much for helping. It works 👍
Thank you man this was so so so helpful!
Thank you so much, tried to export my animation last night on my own and ended up losing my animation. But I remade it now and got it rendered correctly.
W tutorial, helped a lot thank you.
Nice explained, backside lamp is very nice😄
THANK YOU! without you I could've panicked
hi, thanks for sharing this wonderful content. Please help me, I'm trying to save a project but no matter if I pick ''save all'', or ''save scene'', when I open the file again, only the first level appears and if I drew something on the other levels, all of those drawings will appear n that only that appears when I open the file I previously saved... do you know what's wrong and how to fix it?... thanks in advance
Thanks you saved me so much time!
thank you man your tricks are much helpful for me
Thanks so much! I was so sad thinking I was going to have to trash my whole animation project-
Great video, thanks you so much :D
Very helpful. Thank you
Огромное спасибо. Очень помог!
Thank you!
Thank you very much!
lifesaver!
You helped me a lot thanks ❤🎉🎉🎉
dude thanksss ssoooo muuchhhh OwO its working! now ı can share my all animations OwO
LoL d or
Great tutorial. But your ffmpeg link doesn't work. I found it on my own but there is another problem. When I use the fast render to MP4, once it gets to the "precomputing xxx frames" phase, OPEN TOONZ crashes. Is there anywhere I can go to resolve this issue?
Any fix on yours?
Hi, thanks for the video! I'm having trouble getting my rendered animation into DaVinci. I'm on the edit window in DaVinci and have done all my settings as you showed. I downloaded the render with pixel settings at 1920x1080 as a png, but anytime I try and drag the files onto the timeline, it doesn't recognize it as one film and still has all of the photos individually, and the photos all show up black. I'm working on a Mac, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Did you ever get an answer on this? I am having the same issue. Getting individual pngs not 'one film'. Any solution?
Love when I ask a question and immediately after I find the answer! So here it is:
drag the images into the timeline directly! easy peezy.
Hi, I see in this video there is ".mov" option, but I didn't see in my option (I am using Linux anyway). How I can export to mov ? Thanks
Thank you!!!
Tq so much it's working now
very good video, thanks
شكرااا بجد thank you 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
thank you man!
I cant find my render on the desktop. Do you mean that it appears like On the desktop. Like homepage of windows, or do you mean the File Explorer kind?
hellohello, time efficient question- what do you do if there is no version number???? all of it just says “4.4-latest”
Thanks ! It works (:
ive been trying to export my animations as avi and they always get corrupted and i don't have a good editing software to combine all the clips
thank you!!!!!!
thank you very much
Thanks a lot
thank you soo much Ü
Thank you sooooo much.
can you export in wmv format?
thank you .
i have it in my c drive but its not showing in open toonz ive tried restarting and some other stuff no luck
I am going to start animating and this video was very useful to me, thank you
Glad to hear it, and good luck with the animating! Remember it may feel difficult at first, but keep at it and before you know it you'll have a lot of fun giving characters life and making things move across the screen. :)
@@AnimatorIsland Thank you, and indeed that is the magic of animation, right? give life to characters or objects in various areas and places, and although as you already mentioned it will be difficult at the beginning, but as you progress in the animation I will get used to it and above all have fun doing these animations
3:26 it says "Win 10 Sys (C:)" under "Videos" instead of "Local Disk (C:)" under "Videos". Is it ok if I just click "Win 10 Sys (C:)" instead?
Thanks
when I try to select a path for the first method there is no bin option. can anyone please help with this?
I had the same problem. Except there was a bin option in my folder when i opened it outside of OpenToonz. So what i did was just write \bin at the end of the FFmpeg path and it worked. Hope this helps :)
THANK YOU SOO MUCH I WAS TRYING TO SOLVE FOR HOURS!!@@rappi835
its not saving as a file for me but a internet explorer link-ish? i have windows ten,i have no idea how files work but i know im not doing something right
Sir i have a problem when i render png or mp4 video in opentooz it render all the columns sapratly what can i do?
thank you
It closes when i try to render, whats happening and how do i fix?
thanks
This may be a problem with my computer but whenever I try to render it into an mp4, it doesn't work and opentoonz crashes.
THEEEEEEEEEEE BEEESt
I downloaded the same ffmpeg file as you, and moved it to the same file as you, but when I try to tell opentoonz where it is, it dosen't show up. Why is this happening?
I got the same thing, but idk what's going on. I'd just try the longer method.
I currently updated my opentoonz 1.6 to 1.7 version and the ffmpeg is no longer visible. I trashed the file and restarted this process by downloading ffmeg for mac, unzipped the ffmpeg file, moved it to a location and then opened opentoonz to set preferences. opentoonz does not see the ffmpeg in any location that i set it. any ideas? Thank you
This didn’t work for me, I installed ffmpeg but it said ffmpeg not found
Did you do the steps described at 3:43? Make sure to navigate to the folder in which the exe files are located. And you have to restart OpenToonz afterwards.
How do I put a drawing as a youtube thumbnail?
just screenshot it
I don't understand.. when i'm importing those .png file images into the davinci resolve. Even if i change it to edit mode, its still became an image file not a single video. What seems to be the problem?
Apparently they changed some things. The media page should now import a batch of numbered images as one sequence if you drag them in all at once.
can someone PLEASE make a video with this same concept but on MAC
Help, I can't find the file anywhere even if I alr saved it somewhere
Like I put it on desktop but I can't find it when I looked for it on opentoonz
same
is there any alternate to FFmpeg? Every time I go to their website it times out for me. I could use Davinci but I much rather quickly turn my projects into mp4s
I have that issue too
This site seems to work for me (look at the section release builds): www.gyan.dev/ffmpeg/builds/
Tahoma2D comes with ffmpeg bundled in (so no download necessary) but currently seems to be slightly behind the OpenToonz 1.6 release branch.
for some reason when I render it it just gives two of the same type of frame so I think there is something wrong...
Hello Friend ! Your videos are very good! I hope to learn how to use OpenToonz, I got to know your channel through a friend. My name is Aroldo and I'm from Brazil. Success!
tried to get ffmpeg on my mac....it didn't happen as you showed for windows and opentoonz didn't accept it. Humph, as they say in cartoons ;)
I try it and it didn't work, the time line is 1 our long and the timeline thing didn't work😮💨🙁😠
When I exported the video up to 99%, the box displayed "Not corresponding" :((( How can I solve this problem??
Maybe try exporting the same scene in Tahoma2D? You don't need to install ffmpeg as Tahoma comes with it. There are some issues about render crashes on github like this one: github.com/opentoonz/opentoonz/issues/3179
Thank you for the steps you share,, it's working on my Acer laptop
Pity it renders but all columns are being exported into a maze of mp4s, I expected 1 mp4 not hundreds of them
I can't find 4.19 what should I do?
Any version should work as long as you pick the right one for your operating system.
I clicked on "edit" and it's still dumping the individual files the same way as seen in 12:15.
sameee,someone help
For me it still turned out to be multiple images instead of the one file when I dragged and dropped.
Did u ever figure it out cause i cant
@@supermarketdave6762 Hiya bud no I did not but indeed to play around with it but will let you know .
@@willclouded figure it out yet?
Love when I ask a question and immediately after I find the answer! So here it is:
drag the images into the timeline directly! easy peezy.
I don't have an FFmpeg folder, can someone explain why?
Its a custom thing, for rendering to mp4, no need to have it to render image sequences
@@DanielForrest idk wdym
@@DanielForrest OHHHH thank you I saw the reply and tried this again and it worked so uhh thanks
🕶
Thanks, Jesus bless you.
dont work :/
i tried this and it deleted my whole animation and file -_-
Hmm... This shouldn't delete any files... It's just that if OpenToonz crashes before you save (and sadly that can happen) all unsaved progress is gone. Have you checked in the sandbox project's scene or drawing folder? If auto save was switched on, your files are still there and can be opened or imported.
@@AnimatorIsland Oh thanks i'm quite new to animating and later realised I didn't press "save all"
Why can't OpenToonz itself render the project as a video? It's tempting to get upset everytime there's an extra step, but I know there's always a reason.
Check out Tahoma2D which is a fork of OpenToonz that comes bundled with ffmpeg. The reason why it's not included in the official main branch might be a licensing thing. Open source licenses can be tricky... and so is video encoding, a huge challenge on it's own, so that's why ffmpeg is its own project.
@@AnimatorIsland Wow, a detailed informative reply to a single comment. Thank you :)
ok
I'm Greg.
Crash crash crash
Bro 🤍
NO! i already made the animation so it would be a wasted of time
Thank you!
Thank you!
