What do you do while rendering....

Now that I am retired I do only stock stuff and up loads and rendering take up soooo much time (and my machine is fairly fast) - I try and keep work consistently uploading. Since I only have one machine, I try and do something like read blogs (or can do something unrelated like yard work:(). We get lots of rainy days that are not good for imaging here in Oregon, so working on the machine is a lot of the day. Do you worry about slowing down the machine or do you do something else. I supposed those still working set up renders, then make phone calls or go on location.

I wish VP could pass files to filezilla. Any scripts for that?

well back to prepping files.

If I have a project that requires several hours of rendering, I just leave that for the last thing to start before I go to bed. :-)

I drink coffee, go to a walk or do gardening in the garden! 😊

I tend not to do anything else on the computer and close all other programmes as I think this probably speeds up the rendering a little. That means I use the time to catch up on other things --- reading, sleep, gardening, a trip to the market or any one of a number of things.
