{SOLVED} Animation Render/ Image Render blank after certain frame

Hey there! 

I got an pretty urgent problem, since I need to make an animation for tomorrows university project and somethings not working.... 

Problem: 

I made an animation of a box. It renders just fine till Frame 497. Then from frame 500-550 the camera is supposed to move to the upper part of the box, which then opens. Image render and animation are black for 2 frames then blank .....

Everythings fine till there


Frames 498 and 499 are just black


From frame 500 on its blank /transparent


I deleted the keyframes with the location and rotation change of the camera and tried to put the "front facing position" keyframes till frame 550, but it still won´t work

    Okay, so if anyone else faces something similar! 

    The sequencer was the one causing my problem.

    I unchecked the Sequencer Box under the Output tab -> Post Processing.


    It works now... phew

    It could be a number of things. Would it be possible to provide the blend file (Google Drive, Dropbox...)

    Couple long shot guesses.

    • Maybe your camera is getting too close to your objects, check the "clip start" in the camera properties tab. It defaults to 0.1m but you may need to set it to 0.01m
    • Is it possible you have something in the video sequencer? I believe with default settings, the sequencer takes precedence over anything in front of the viewport camera.
