آموزش Digital Tutors - Compositing with Multi-channel OpenEXR Files in

 

In this After Effects tutorial, weandrsquo;ll learn how to take advantage of ILMandrsquo;s OpenEXR file format. Software required: After Effects CC. A common format in visual effects and animation, OpenEXR files are able to contain an unlimited number of channel layers. So a common workflow is to put all the different CG lighting passes into one EXR sequence. Weandrsquo;re going to take an OpenEXR file of an alien creature and set up all different render passes hidden inside as separate layers. Then weandrsquo;ll use those layers to do a multi-pass CG composite with complete control over the look of the alien as we integrate him into his alien planet background. Weandrsquo;ll go on to add and adjust the ground shadow, learn how to make an edge blur from scratch, and perform a final color grade that will make the image really pop. By the end of this After Effects training, youandrsquo;ll have created a feature-film-quality, multi-pass CG composite using the power of OpenEXR files. Software required: After Effects CC.
