The renderer is a camera

Fractal artists choose a coordinate, zoom, formula, iteration budget, coloring algorithm, palette, aspect ratio and sample count. Those parameters are the equivalent of lens, exposure, film stock and location.

Professional workflow

  • Scout quickly at low resolution.
  • Save exact coordinates.
  • Raise iterations only until detail stabilizes.
  • Choose coloring before palette.
  • Render oversized / supersampled.
  • Downsample cleanly.
  • Save metadata with the master image.
  • Export WebP/AVIF for web and lossless masters for archive.
