  Optical Flares obscuration not working

  Posted by Zvi Twersky on May 20, 2014 at 12:59 pm

  As you see in the picture, I have a logo layer (with transparency) in between an Optical flare and a camera… and I set the Optical flares obscuration to the logo layer (with the transparency) but the flare is still on top of the layer instead of beneath it. What am I doing wrong?

  You have Continuous Rasterization/Collapse Transformations switch turned on for your logo layer. Either turn it off or move the elements inside the precomp to the correct position in 3d space inside that precomp.
