hi everyone, i have an image i have in my mind, but for it to look its best i will need to add motion to the image. how would i achieve this? i would like  my models hair to look as if it is swaying, not just to look static. i know photoshop is an option but is it the only option?

Here's a previous discussion with some useful examples and details:

I dont like motion blur - it looks so blatantly gimmicky. It cant be avoided in slow speed cameras, but there isnt much justification for it in a cg image. If you want it to look like a snap-shot out of a sequence use

1. A dynamic pose which is part of a continuous motion - e.g with rotation of the whole body, the torso or any other part relevant to the image's subject
2. dynamic hair
3. dynamic clothes

If you put some thought into 1, 2 nd 3 will contain the 'memory' of what happen just before, and look more convincing and more interesting than any motion blur can achieve.

If you have Vue, that does motion blur a lot easier than Poser's system but will increase render time, I think most peeps do it as post including me!
