Playblast

Developer: carlosmu

Download Free

Blender add-on for animation previews with its own output settings, shortcuts and a turnaround camera.

What Playblast does

Playblast is a Blender add-on by carlosmu that creates animation previews while keeping their settings apart from your final-render settings. Output path, format, codec and resolution are defined once in the add-on preferences, so you stop changing them back and forth.

Quick settings let you override some preferences on the fly. Ctrl+Shift+F12 runs a playblast and Ctrl+Shift+F11 replays the last one. Additional operators create a turnaround camera and open the folder containing your playblasts, which makes review loops faster for animators.

Key features

  • Playblast settings separate from final render
  • Preferences for output, format, codec and resolution
  • Quick on-the-fly overrides
  • Shortcuts to run and replay a playblast
  • Turnaround camera and open-folder operators
