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 (8-bit, web-ready) or TIFF (16-bit, for post-production) images from your saved angles. You can select which angles to render, choose a resolution and output format, 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 angle. For example, 4 angles with 3 variants produces 12 images.
For full details, see Exporting Photos.
Video Exports
Video exports render your clip timeline as either a single continuous video or individual clip files.
Render mode:
- Full Sequence — All clips as a single video file.
- Single Clips — Selected clips as individual files.
Quality:
- MP4 — Estimated 2–3 minutes. Good for previews and web use.
- 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 angles or clips in a single export to produce a complete set of assets efficiently.
