  • Render Particular layers ONLY, while leaving the effects of others on those layers.

    Posted by David Biederbeck on September 14, 2010 at 6:12 pm

    Is it possible to render out particular layers (text in this case), keeping the effects that all other aspects have on it (lighting/sky/softboxes etc.) and make all other areas of the still render on the alpha channel?

    Essentially I only want to use the text (with the scenes effects) and bring it into photoshop.

    Thanks in advance!

    I believe what you want is just to put a Compositing Tag on everything that you dont want and uncheck “Seen By Camera”
