# Exporting Renders

Glossi renders your photos and videos in the cloud, so your local machine stays free while high-quality outputs are generated. All exports are managed through the **Export modal**, accessed by clicking the **Export** button in the studio toolbar.

The Export modal has two tabs — **Photo** and **Video** — each with settings tailored to their output type.

### Photo Exports

Photo exports produce PNG images from your saved bookmarks. You can select which bookmarks to render, choose a resolution, and optionally enable preview mode (watermarked, doesn't count toward usage).

| Resolution | Estimated Time          |
| ---------- | ----------------------- |
| 720p       | 15–30 seconds per image |
| 1080p      | 30–60 seconds per image |
| 4K         | 2–5 minutes per image   |

If your model has variants, each selected variant is rendered for each selected bookmark. For example, 4 bookmarks with 3 variants produces 12 images.

For full details, see Exporting Photos.

### Video Exports

Video exports render your shot timeline as either a single continuous video or individual clip files.

**Render mode:**

* **Full Sequence** — All shots as a single video file.
* **Single Clips** — Selected shots as individual files.

**Quality:**

* **Fastest (MP4)** — Estimated 2–3 minutes. Good for previews and web use.
* **Best (ProRes)** — Estimated 10–15 minutes. Professional quality for editing and final deliverables.

| Resolution | Estimated Time |
| ---------- | -------------- |
| 720p       | 1–2 minutes    |
| 1080p      | 2–4 minutes    |
| 4K         | 5–10 minutes   |

Preview mode is also available for video, exporting with a watermark that doesn't count toward usage.

For full details, see the Exporting Video section of Video Mode.

### Render Library

Completed renders are available in the **Render Library**, accessible from the Renders tab in the workspace navigation. From there you can browse, filter, and download your rendered assets.

### Tips

* **Start with 1080p** — It's the best balance of quality and speed for most use cases. Use 4K for final production renders.
* **Use preview mode** to check compositions before committing to full-quality renders.
* **Batch your exports** — Select multiple bookmarks or shots in a single export to produce a complete set of assets efficiently.
