  Render Elements – VrayLight – How to composite ?

  Posted by Bernhard Rieder on November 15, 2008 at 5:14 pm

  Hello,

  I would like to figure out, how I can composite and break down the render element called VrayLight in After Effects ?

  Some threads explained that I should get the VrayLight Element, if I use the following idea:

  RawLight x Diffuse + RawGI x Diffuse = VrayLight

  Unfortunately, I am not sure if this is correct and how I could get it done in AE.

  Here is a snapshot I do have so far:

  Here is my Max9 Scene file:

  and here are all the render elements saved as .tif files and compressed to a zip file:

  the original RGB render is also included…

  well, I really would like to know how I can just break down the VrayLight Element first.

  thx a lot for every little help,
  bernhard

  It’s great that you’ve put up the files. Unfortunately, my machine is tied up right now. What I’ve done previously with 3D multi-layered renders is to use AE’s Blending Modes. Give those a shot.
