Rendering is the process of processing all your layers, effects, and edits into a final video file. This lesson covers key render settings like resolution (matching your project, e.g. 1080p or 4K), frame rate (should match your original footage to avoid stuttering), and quality settings that affect how closely the final output matches what you see in your preview window. It also covers the difference between rendering a final “master” file at the highest quality versus compressed versions meant for specific platforms.
