Hi David, You are doing nothing wrong, it's just a slight misunderstanding about how scene motion blur works. Scene motion blur applies the number of copies from your current frame forward to the following frame. In essence, scene motion blur extends into the future to blur the object into its next position. It sounds as if frame 10 is the terminal frame for the box (it moves from 0 to 10 and then stands still). The test rendering on frame 10 is applying motion blur to the box based upon its postitions at frame 10 and 11. Since it does not move between those frames, there is no blur. Try your test rendering at frame 5 instead and you should see the blur effect in action. There is a discussion both object motion blur and scene motion blur in Chapter 20 of "Inside 3D Studio". Steven
