- Render all frames of an animation in the background, without loading the UI (output is saved to `/tmp`):
`blender -b {{filename}}.blend -a`
- Render an animation using a specific image naming pattern, in a path relative (`//`) to the .blend file:
`blender -b {{filename}}.blend -o //{{render/frame_###.png}} -a`
- Render the 10th frame of an animation as a single image, saved to an existing directory (absolute path):
`blender -b {{filename}}.blend -o {{/path/to/output_directory}} -f {{10}}`
- Render the second last frame in an animation as a JPEG image, saved to an existing directory (relative path):
`blender -b {{filename}}.blend -o //{{output_directory}} -F {{JPEG}} -f {{-2}}`
- Render the animation of a specific scene, starting at frame 10 and ending at frame 500:
`blender -b {{filename}}.blend -S {{scene_name}} -s {{10}} -e {{500}} -a`
- Render an animation at a specific resolution, by passing a Python expression:
`blender -b {{filename}}.blend --python-expr '{{import bpy; bpy.data.scenes[0].render.resolution_percentage = 25}}' -a`
- Start an interactive Blender session in the terminal with a python console (do `import bpy` after starting):
`blender -b --python-console`
