Why is my render showing black?

1.Camera Positioning Issues

One of the most frequent causes of a black render is that the camera may be stuck inside a wall, closet, or another solid object within your design. When the camera is positioned incorrectly, it can limit visibility and block light from entering the scene, resulting in a completely dark render.

How to Fix It:

• Check Camera Placement: Navigate around your space to ensure the camera is not embedded in any objects.
• Adjust Camera Angle: If you find it stuck, reposition the camera to an open area where it has a clear line of sight.

2. Insufficient Light Sources

Another reason for a black render could be inadequate lighting within your scene. If there aren’t enough light sources or if they are too dim, the rendering engine may struggle to produce a well-lit image.

How to Fix It:

• Add More Lights: Introduce additional light sources such as lamps or ceiling fixtures to brighten up your space.
• Adjust Light Settings: Check and increase the intensity of existing lights if necessary to ensure adequate illumination throughout your design.
