appleseed Description

Appleseed is an open-source, physically-based global illumination rendering system that was primarily developed for animation and visual effects. Appleseed is actively developed by a small international group of talented volunteers from animation and VFX. Its primary mission is to provide small studios and individuals with a reliable, fully open rendering program. Appleseed has been used in many projects over the years, including ads, promo videos, TV documentaries, and an animation short. Appleseed uses a modern workflow that relies on path tracing. This allows for single pass rendering without any artifacts and minimal technical tuning. It can render completely unbiased rendering when accuracy is paramount, or biased rendering when artistic freedom and a shorter rendering time are more important.
