Title: Bloom and Glare as a separate pass
Post by: leo_surrealismo on 2021-12-18, 21:30:15

Hi,
I am doing an archviz animation and need to compose the background in post.
Is there a way to get bloom & glare as a separate pass but at the same time no printed on the beauty?  I know I can use render elements, but It appers on the element but on the beauty also.
and another question... I have saved the sequence as CXR, opened in corona image editor and saved it with alpha channel, but the alpha that is saving me is no respecting my background transparency. It prints a total white alpha.

thanks.

Add a CShading_Beauty render element, and for that element disable bloom and glare. You still get the regular beauty with it baked in, but then an extra beauty without the b&g.
