Motion Blur Not Working on Multilayer EXR Sequence in After Effects

Hi all,

I’m a 3D artist rendering a scene from Blender as a multilayer EXR sequence (including passes like diffuse, gloss, etc.) and bringing everything into After Effects for compositing. However, I’m running into an issue where motion blur—both native and CC Force Motion Blur—doesn’t seem to work either on the EXR precomp itself or on the ind…

Reply to Using Low-Res 3D Renders in After Effects Before Final Render

Here’s a little more context for my specific scenario.

If each of my render layers consisted of just a single layer, I could simply drop them into my main composition, replace them with the high-res versions when ready, and adjust their scale accordingly.

However, the issue is that I’m using Multi-EXR image sequences, which contain multiple l…

Using Low-Res 3D Renders in After Effects Before Final Render

Hi everyone,

I’m a 3D artist, and my workflow involves rendering 3D layers from Blender and compositing them in After Effects. Since 3D rendering can be very time-consuming, I’d like to set up my compositing using lower-resolution versions of my renders first. This way, I can identify any issues before committing to a full-resolution r…

Compositing 3D Renders in After Effects – Edge transparency issues

Hi everyone,

I’m working on a 3D animation in Blender and using After Effects for compositing. My workflow involves rendering different scene elements as separate layers and then recombining them in After Effects. However, I’ve encountered an issue where a very faint outline appears at the edges of the layers when composited. It’s an area of t…

Adjusting Propagation Time Span

I am rotobrushing a video. To optimize propagation performance, I’ve split my video into different sections. However, I’m running into an issue where I can’t adjust the starting frame of the propagation time span. Is there a way to do this? Any help would be appreciated!

Issues with Roto Brushing a clip that’s split into sections

I’m working on rotoscoping a 6-second 1080p video. To optimize performance and avoid triggering propagation at the start of the clip when making adjustments, I’ve been splitting the video into 37-frame sections.

However, I’m running into a couple of issues with this workflow:
