Hello there,

I was already wondering for some time what the pass "Velocity" in the Multi-Pass section of Carrara is supposed to do. I haven't found anything about it, so I've ignored it until...

I watched the Podcast to Pigeon impossible found here:
pigeonimpossible.com/podcast/019.html
He explains what the Velocity Pass is his software package is doing and how you have to use it.

So the idea came to me "Maybe the Carrara velocity pass can do something similar for me? Can I use it for Videopost 2D motion blur?"
Well, I created a simple animation in Carrara and rendered it with the velocity pass.
Unfortunately the Pass Carrara creates doesn't really look like described in the Podcast.
It's speckled and has a weird pattern in the pass.

So the Velocity Pass seems to be something different in Carrara.
Can anyone tell me what the it is exactly and how you are supposed to use it?
I'd appreciate any information.
